Herlings congratulated him after the race and praised him in the interview. He was just frustrated because Prado was riding over his head to keep Herlings behind him, which is totally understandable, he's very young and full of exuberance, but Herlings was just like c'mon dude, use your head I'm going for the title. No problem with what either of them did for me

Herlings did congratulate him but he acted like a little bitch on the track!

How dare a competitor of Herlings try and race with him...

It's a travesty

Sorry the "Pro, but not so Pro class"

It cant be 250 class, cause there are 125's racing as well.
Let just agree to call it the Sandbaggers, 125 and cheaters class!

prado raced him hard and fair, herlings overreacted. period. championship or not. I like herlings but as a class veteran he should deal better with that.

Prado ran into the back of him (his teamate) and all he did was make a gesture to say 'Come on man, what are you doing?' and you think he over-reacted?

Cooper Webb gave a slower rider the finger for spoiling a practice lap at Anaheim earlier this year and it didn't seem to bother you at all.

Its his teammate and he's in his first GP, Herlings is going for the title. I don't expect Prado to just let him pass, but he was riding over his head to keep him behind, and then ran into Herlings after Herlings had passed him. All Herlings did was just give him a little signal to just say use your head man. I'm sure you were just absolutely ecstatic to see it though just so you had something to come on here and moan about again

He said in a dutch interview that there were team orders for Prado to let Herlings pass. Herlings said he was frustrated because he cannot get pass Prado because the track was too one lined. Then he said he would've done the same thing at that age. He also said Prado is a really good kid.

watch it again! herlings already complained a view turns before prado run into herlings back wheel. and he only ran into it because herlings got impassioned and forced the pass and took away prados line (fair enough!) and prado had nowhere to go.

thx for stalking me btw.

oh ya. I like herlings. not hating on him whatsoever. just the way I see it. I also wasn't bothered by it at all, it was the best racing of the entire weekend (ama and mxgp)!

Just watched. Herlings took Prado's line on the pass. Shouldn't be surprised that a bump came from behind. Prior to that, he had a lot of track to work with, and was looking for something, but just couldn't capitalize. And he was looking to the pits.

I maybe understand some of his frustration, but it was clearly more with team dynamics than the completely typical riding that was occurring on-track in the race.

The wild card is Webb!
He would jeopardize his own championship if he gets heated!
Fastest guy at the track? Won't be for long.
Hope Jeff gets this title! Because Webb doesn't give a fuck about it! Actually if Webb helps Jeff lose it? That would be a win-win for coop.

lol if I was Herlings I would have just cleaned Prado out if he ignored the pits. Then after the race told him welcome to MX2, get the f*ck out of the way next time. But I'm sure as hell not Herlings Wink

Couldn't pull it off. Prado gave him at least a couple inside lines, and it didn't look like Herlings was holding that much back.

Jeff could have just settled for second if he didn't want to race Prado. Prado was hanging it out but I don't know if he was "over his head".

The fact that Prado dropped back by a couple of seconds a lap once he got passed would suggest that he was riding over his head and a bit out of his comfort zone

Prado is a 15 year old kid leading at his first ever GP. You guys can't figure out why he was trying so hard to keep that position?

Once 84 passed he settled down, realizing that a win wasn't in the cards that day.
