Allmost 3rd in the Superfinal. Just got a few seconds really dizzy with 2laps to go cos of the heat. Thats why I had to slow down for a bit.
"About the last lap, I just took it easy, and said, like, yeah, I'll just win my moto of MX2, that's all I can do, and take 50 points home from Thailand"
That sums up [one of] the problems with combined classes. Why race a guy who's not even in your race, and when you get no more points or money for doing so?
Anyway, so what? Now he says he felt dizzy...? Sounds to me like he has had the YS heavies pay him a visit.

Dont forget this guy is very young and still growing/learning every day. You cannot compare a rider that young by looking what he did 1/2 years ago. Herlings used to be an average guy on the hard pack tracks. At the end of last season that was already changed (Searle was nowhere close to him last races)
Nevertheless, the combined class is kinda meh.. On most GP tracks the bigger bikes have alot of advantage. But thenagain its only combined in the oversea GP's, and there's not many of those left.
125's in 1st corner 250's and Open bikes off the gate.
I'd be more concerned about the lack of spectators, looks like the USGP
a couple more years and they will run out of Countries to fleece

Crowd didnt look impressive tho. Soil looked very good and there were at least some hills but it never looks good when the sides of the track are all dirt like that. Just looks like a building site - which it kind of was having just been built. Having just re watched the 1997 125cc world championship opener from indonesia I can say last weekends track was a big improvement at any rate.
What about this hairbrained suprefinal! How can you attempt to simplify something for TV and end making it It MORE complicated - doh! and the MX2 teams are getting fucked over big time. Many of those MX2 teams have really solid budgets for one reason alone. They have riders in the top 5 on TV. If Jeffrey Herlings can barely make top 5 now how the fuck can those teams possibly keep their sponors? Dean Ferris finished 2nd overall last week. did anyone notice? Probably not, he had a 5th and a 13th for 2nd overall. Try explaining that one to your friend who deosnt follow mx.
I'm still not feeling the Superfinal. For whatever reasons, the gap between MX1 & MX2 seems like it's just too much right now for something like this to really work as intended. Maybe the age restriction is a big part of it?
The track in Thailand was much better than I expected it to be, and the MX1 racing has been great so far!
And without even reading this thread past the first few replies.....how is the "super pole" or whatever it's called going with the lites bikes and the 450's combined? It sounds interesting.....just wondering if there has been some good action in those motos?
