Looking good. Will be interesting to see how he does on the 450. Considering he bettered Gajser and Febvre in the past, it will be interesting to see if he can be on that level also

I expect him more at the level of guys like Guillod. Certainly the first races after his comeback.

I'm afraid he's going to be an 8th - 15th kinda guy...

Hope he does well! He's good friends with Guillod, whom I wish was doing better....

I think he will be a 6th to 10th guy...

I'm hoping he at least lands inside the top 12.

At Kegums, 12th & 14th, 11th overall.

I agree with Aryen atleast for the first few rounds, dudes been off the bike for a while and the MXGP boys already have a few races under there belt and also the bike dialed. I would like to see Jordi in the top 5 though,sure would make it even more intresting !

I think it's almost impossible to predict with any certainty how anyone will do when they move up, who would have predicted Febvre and Gajser would be at the top, yet Searle ( who beat Herlings quite a lot) wouldn't even have a podium yet, injuries aside.

Aryen I am with you, fair enough he is crazy fast but cant see him moving well to big bikes and the competition in that class.

The MX1 class is deep! The MX2 class is not!

This year, probably a 7-13 guy depending on the day. But next year with a injury free offseason? Probably a podium contender in a few races?

That is a damn good looking scooter.

Consider this a test/building year for Jordi, no stress, no points race, just testing the waters and staying healthy. He's pretty well regulated to top 10 filler material next year also, deep healthy gates next year in MXGP.

Who cares? It's been like that for 30 years at the overseas races...

I see tixier (after some races) between Coldenhoff/Guillod and Gajser/febvre. I'd love to see him do good though. He will need some time though, when was the last time he raced? Gotta be like 10 months. Top 10 for Latvia would be a good result I guess

I hate lappers so I'm cool with just having the good guys on the gate.
