Two-time MotoGP winner and Moto3 world champion Brad Binder would like to switch with Max Verstappen for a day. He would also choose the two-time Formula 1 champion for a road trip, he says in a video on the YouTube-channel of MotoGP.
Brad Binder would like to be Verstappen for a day
If Binder had to choose who he would go on a road trip with, he would prefer Verstappen. He would also like to go through life as the Dutchman for a day. "If I could switch lives with someone for a day that would also have to be Max Verstappen, because he drives a Formula 1 car," his conclusion reads.
The South African has a number of things in common with Verstappen. For instance, he has also been part of the Red Bull family for a long time and rides for the Red Bull KTM factory team in MotoGP. In addition, the two riders shared the same starting number until 2022: both rode number 33 until Verstappen chose number 1 as world champion.
Binder has a world title in Moto3 to his name and finished second in the 2019 Moto2 championship. After this, he made the switch to the king class, MotoGP, where he finished sixth in the last two seasons. He will still be in action on behalf of KTM until at least the end of 2024.
