Indian MotoGP: Brad Binder: “Banked turn looks sick, can’t wait to give it a bash”
Three of the top four riders in the world championship, a list that🐼 also includes double winner at Sachsenring and Misano, Jorge Martin, reigning world champion Bagnaia was one of the first riders to give his first impression of the track.
After completing a few walks around the circuit, one of which was together witꦿh race direction to discuss concerns over some of the run-off areas, Bagnaia said: "I had the chance to do two laps and I think the layout 𓆉of the track is interesting.

- Bagnaia: Morbidelli “deser🌟ves” Ducati ride, Martin challenges him to adapt fast
"It is different compared to a lot of tracks we go to. I think it could be great.🦋 It will be interesting tomorrow to ride considering some of the run-off areas which look a bit too short.
"But I did a lap with the race direction [manager] and they tried to explain everything and they have reason to say it is okay💎. I think it will be inℱteresting to try.”
Bagnaiꦏa’s thoughts were then backed up by Bezzecchi, who like Bagnaia 🎃is still not 100% fit heading into Friday practice.
Bezzecchi said: "The long straig💙ht is impressive because it is nearly🐭 as long as Texas.
🤪"It is very nice to see and I can’t wait to try the b𓆏ike.
"There is a long right hand ﷺcorner with banking which looks fun so I can’t wait."
While Bezzecchi and Bagnaia managed to overcome their injury issues at Misano to claim a double podium apiece, Binder unfortunately crashed during the early stages of the grand prix before coming across the 🐎line in 14th.
One of the riders affected by the delay in receiving a visa, Binder arrived in the country not long🌸 before today’s pre-event press conference.
Asked for his thoughts on the circuit, Binder🍷 added: "So far so good. Everything has been quite cool since I arrived this 🅠morning [laughs].
"The track looks pretty cool and it will be a fun layout to ride. That one really banked turn l🦩ooks sick so I can’t wait to give that a bash. It’s exciting to come somewhere new."
