Brad Binder started out in karts and was already a national champion at age eight. Looking for a new challenge, the South African moved on to two wheels at 10-years-old and hasn't looked back since.

After rapid progress on motorcycles in his native nation, Brad was accepted into the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup for 2009, and his talent shone enough over the next few seasons.
