Brad Binder (+3300):
South African, Brad Binder is flying under the radar this season as his new teammate Pedro Acosta grabs the attention.

Expert Pick for Argentina MotoGP
Championship leader Marc Marquez is an easy pick for the Gran Premio YPF Energia de Argentina MotoGP. The Spaniard dominates the honors roll at this track, with most poles, wins and the all-time lap record. “The Ant of Cervera” has won this race three times and he is chasing history to cement his place in Spanish MotoGP history. Marquez carries short odds at -275, potentially paying $27.27 on a $20 wager.

MotoGP travels to South America for the second round of the 2025 series. Can Marc Marquez win a fourth Grand Prix in Argentina and extend his series lead? Will the younger Marquez finally get one over on his brother to claim a maiden MotoGP trophy?
LCR Honda became the first Honda-supported team to unveil its 2026 liveries as it builds momentum ahead of Sepang testing. Johann Zarco will retain a Castrol-themed design, red, white, and green with new black and blue accents, while Diogo Moreira’s fairing switches to Pro Honda, ending LCR’s long association with Idemitsu on that bike.
Zarco, 35, arrives at Sepang under a multi-year LCR deal that runs through 2027 and guarantees parity of technical spec and updates with the factory team. He will start his on-track program at the official Sepang test on February 3–5. Moreira, 21, the reigning Moto2 champion, signed a multi-year deal with HRC to race an RC213V in MotoGP and will carry Pro Honda as his title partner. Unlike predecessor Somkiat Chantra, Moreira will have access to factory-spec machinery, and LCR confirmed his full Pro Honda livery will appear on track at Sepang after an initial shakedown run in black.
At the Sepang shakedown, Moreira showed encouraging pace, improving through the session and posting a late best lap of 1:58.338. That time put him ahead of Toprak Razgatlioglu, with KTM test rider Dani Pedrosa splitting them; one account placed Moreira sixth overall while another listed him eighth. Zarco’s new Castrol livery is also due to appear during the Sepang test. The preseason will finish with a final Buriram test on Feb 21–22, ahead of the Thai season opener on Feb 27–Mar 1. The combined sponsorship updates, visual rebrand, and early running data will help shape LCR Honda’s preparations as official testing gets underway.
