Career

Binder was born in Potchefstroom, South Africa. His older brother, Brad Binder, is also a professional motorcycle racer, and competed alongside Darryn in Moto3 in both 2015 and 2016.

In 2022, he moved up into MotoGP with WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP Team, alongside Andrea Dovizioso.{{Cite web|last=Sports|first=Dorna|title=Darryn Binder joins WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP Team for 2022|url=https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2021/10/21/darryn-binder-joins-withu-yamaha-rnf-motogp-team-for-2022/397546|access-date=2021-10-22|website=www.motogp.com|date=21 October 2021 |language=en}}

Following the 2022 Australian motorcycle Grand Prix, Binder announced that he would race in the 2023 Moto2 World Championship for Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP alongside Lukas Tulovic as Binder was unable to secure a seat in MotoGP for 2023.{{Cite web|title=Darryn with Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP Moto2 squad in 2023|date=19 October 2022|url=https://darrynbinder40.com/2022/10/19/darryn-with-liqui-moly-husqvarna-intact-gp-moto2-squad-in-2023/|access-date=19 October 2022|website=darrynbinder40.com}}
