I don't know if somebody mentioned it already but I saw a spectator vid on IG where it looked liked Jonass hit Herlings from behind in mid air causing Herlings to crash.
Anybody see that?

Didn't see that, would make sence though, it seemed an odd place to crash without being tagged, lucky nobody else hit the bike as it cartwheeled mid pack.

I just watched a replay and perhaps Herlings was whiping his bike and Jonas touched his rear wheels as he was right behind/next to him.

That was a bloody good race, some fast riding and some good moves were pulled by a lot of racers.

I'm glad to be enjoying it with my iPad turned off, I've just seen the usual mud sling in'

Hilarious

Herlings should definitely be in MX1. Racing the competition he is now does him no good as far as his career goes. He's already had 4 years in MX2. That's more than enough for a rider of his ability.

How does the GP gate pick system work? Even thought Herlings DNF'd does he still get the first pick due to the qualifier race?

If he wants to get to the top he better get him on a red eye flight over seas Blink

That is a bold statement. Aldon is the man without a doubt but at this point in his career RV shouldn't need an Aldon Baker especially after having already worked with Aldon.

Opinions aside I hope this isn't the first volley in the "RV would have won the MXGP title if he'd had Aldon" movement. Way too early to go there.
RV is only a seat jockey for KRT, They have all the settings and data that is needed for the GPs, they are the experience that RV needs to listen to.They have been in the Circus for many years and RV has not,simple.I have the opinion that the reluctance to adapt to European pre season rituals has put a serious dent in the progress of KRT so far this season, playing catch up in a point race is not a ideal place to be starting from. As I stated before I feel KRT was dealt a bad hand and will become a whipping boy for a promotional ploy Mr Luongo envisioned and the desperation Kawasaki has experienced to have at least one World Champion in the MX1 class. KRT deserves better than that.

Ferrandis man.... He makes way to many small mistakes. But he's young, he will learn.

The problem is more that the rest of the world can be proud of their country, but we can't. How many times during the MXDN do you hear the Brits bragging about getting top ten, but if an American gets second he sucks?
Lack of respect in the past might be a reason Wink

Yeah you're right, and sometimes even your fellow Americans point out the embarrassment of some of the posts that are written on here.

You say you don't care what's pointed out, but ya still brought it up.. Just saying.
