RiderTua.com – Remy Gardner to young Binder: “It’s not in Moto3, Darryn races like a monkey”… Remy admits he is extra careful around Darryn. The maneuvers are still like ‘Moto3 kids’ for example: returning to the racing line after going wide without ‘seeing’. Remy feels capable of catching up to Maverick Vinales and Andrea Dovizioso, but he is hindered by Darryn Binder who he thinks is a risk with him.
The 2021 Moto2 world champion finished the first race of his debut in the MotoGP class in Qatar by finishing in 15th place with one point. Remy Gardner has to face Andrea Dovizioso (WithU Yamaha RNF) and Maverick Vinales (Aprilia) and wants to catch up to the two senior riders. The Australian racer talked about Darryn Binder’s excessive actions that occurred during the night race at the Losail circuit. “It’s really not a Moto3 bike. So he doesn’t have to race like a monkey. We didn’t fight for the victory in Qatar, but more or less for the last position with a little respect for each other would be better,” he said. Maybe the ‘los dol’ racing style in Moto3 still carries over?
Remy Gardner: It’s Not In Moto3, Darryn Races Like A Monkey
It was in this phase of the race that Gardner lost contact with Dovizioso and Vinales because of the behavior of fellow rookie Darryn Binder. After the race, Gardner said irritatedly, “I think I need to see Darryn sometime and talk to him.”
Then laughing Remy added, “It’s really not a Moto3 bike. So he doesn’t have to race like a monkey.”
The son of former 500cc world champion Wayne Gardner continued, “We are not fighting for victory in Qatar, but more or less for last place. A little respect would be better.”
However, Gardner also shows some understanding for Darryn Binder’s exaggeration. “In a way, it’s normal. Because this was his first MotoGP race and he came straight from Moto3 to the MotoGP World Championship. But I hope everything will be a little better in the future,” concluded the KTM Tech3 racer.
