The South African has been part of the KTM family since 2015, when he joined the Ajo squad in Moto3 – with whom he won the 2016 lightweight class world championship.
Binder remained with KTM upon his step to Moto2 in 2017, finishing runner-up in the standings in 2019 before moving to MotoGP the following year with the Austrian manufacturer.
He stunned in his third grand prix when he took a sensational maiden victory for himself and the team at the Czech GP, with Binder winning for a second time in 2021 at KTM’s home event in Austria after staying out on slicks on a wet track.
Binder already had a deal in his pocket with KTM through to the end of 2024, but has now extended this for a further two years – marking the first major contract signing for beyond next season.
“A massive thank you to KTM and the management for trusting in me and for letting me be involved in this incredible programme for a few more years,” Binder said.
“We are coming very close to what we want to achieve on the track but I cannot say enough good things about the team and my crew.
“2015 and those first KTM races feel like a long time ago! But also time passes quickly and we’ve made some special memories.
“I know there is a lot more to come and cannot wait to build those stories. Thanks again.”
KTM’s motorsport boss Pit Beirer said retaining Binder was a “big priority” for the brand, adding: “We love everything about this guy: he is an all-out racer and leaves everything on the track.
