Binder leads opening practice for the 2021 Spanish MotoGP at Jerez, the KTM rider edging out long-time leader Aleix Espargaro on his final lap with new soft front-medum rear tyres.
Marc Marquez completed the top three, setting his best time while chasing Honda team-mate Pol Espargaro (who had earlier followed Marquez), with Bagnaia and Quartararo completing the top five.
The top 17 riders were covered by less than 1-second.
Injured rookie Jorge Martin is being replaced at Pramac by Rabat, while Bradl is making his first wild-card of the season after racing as a replacement for Marc Marquez in Qatar.
