I hope so too!
Next week ET3 will come out swinging for sure. Eli even said his ego got the better of him 1st moto. It's good to see he learned from past mistakes and did what had to be done 2nd moto.

Definitely a ride a lot of AMA riders could learn from, not sure what they would need to change but it's pretty clear who has the overall upper hand now. Roczen and ET will and can give all those boys a run at sometime or another but no doubting they are more than capable of giving it back to them.

Just an absolutely incredible ride from Herlings, really glad he decided to race.

It's only gonna get worse for Americans when they start adding more supercross races and take away some outdoor rounds

There are only a handful that have the pure skill like he.

Herlings is one of them.

Maybe Herlings will claim the number 7.
8/26/2017 3:23pm
Herlings always has been a big fan of JS7 ... in his younger years he raced the 259 number for that reason

Except the leader didn't crash. That said, Herlings flat out killed it today

this is because in the US the professional circuit is only focused on SX. or putting on a show vs developing skill and speed

I'm very impressed with his riding today, really wish he would come here and race. Get that world title next year then come here.

It was an impressive ride. What it really proved to me though, is that Cairoli is the FMOTP....

Cairoli isn't faster than herlings. He may have a huge points lead but that's because herlings broke his hand

Are you sure about the number thing ? Laughing Pretty sure i've seen Herlings ride with 84 ever since he was on Suzuki 85's in the dutch national series. Maybye Coldenhoff ? He still rides 259

Anyway awesome day! Legendary preformance by Herlings. Really wish we'd see guys from both series compete versus eachother more often the hype for this stuff is awesome.

Results vary. Cairoli torched Herlings at Lombardia. (Yeah yeah, it was nasty hot; Herlings is nine years younger too.)

It helps that cairol starts too 3 every moto and herlings has been terrible off the line on all those one lined GP tracks. He was probably loving how open the track was today
