Australian GP and Sprint Race swapped due to weather forecast pointing to bad weather and high winds on Sunday.
SA’s own Brad Binder and local mate Jack Miller showing that the KTM, in the right hands, is well suited to the Phillip Island Circuit - two fastest Friday practice times.
I’ll temper my expectations. Binder normally fluffs the quali but the KTM’s are hot off the line. That being said, they have nothing on those Ducati’s.

Champion in the making here. A season or two with GasGas and he’ll be snapped up by Ducati or KTM and will be adding a MotoGP title to his Moto3 and Moto2 titles before long.
Talking of which, Marc “Antman” Marquez at the Valencia Test on his first outing on a Ducati.
The smiling face after his first run says “there’s another World Championship for me here!”
This is a big deal. Literally and figuratively!

- From 2027, engine size will be reduced from 1000cc to 850cc
- 100% sustainable fuel from 2027 – rising from the minimum 40% the sport has raced with since 2024
- Aerodynamics will be reduced and more tightly controlled from 2027
- All ride-height and holeshot devices will be banned
- GPS data from all riders will be available to all teams after each session
Also:
These are some good changes.
However, I can’t see why they had to reduce the engine sizes, apart from not having enough downforce now due to the aero changes.
