Cairoli is straight up schooling everyone this race. Really impressive to see him bounce back after a few rough years!

Let's see if Antsie throws it away or if he can get around Herlings. He has some odd inability to be around Herlings.
Laughing he passed him though!

Well every point counts but if riding will delay his recovery I agree.

I was thinking the same thing. Would hve probably been better of by taking this weekend off. Easy to say now in hindsight though.

I think he expected he could do better, but this isnt mx2 anymore...

We already know what he's capable of. The question is whether or not he can sustain those capabilities throughout an entire series. He's not off to a good start.

Surprised with Herling's even though he finished 18th or something like that, He held of multiple heavy hitters for 10-15 minutes which is impressive in this field,

Only first race but seems as though Antonio has a fire burning in the belly and serving notice that he's focused and healthy.
Tonus?

Early, but have the troubles of Cairoli in the last few years made the likes of Febvre and Gasjer look better than they are? He's rarely looked this good since getting injured at the 2014 MXdN in Latvia riding the 250f.

I have said forever that AC has not looked the same since his team manger stole MxDN wins form AC by dropping him to that 250 and him crashing out. AC has never looked this good around Qatar. I hope this trend continues!

Hell yes go AC! Love it!

Really hope Herlings isn't going backwards in recovery by racing with a broke hand....

Apparently the problem in the 1st moto was armpump. Not his hand. Probably caused by a lack of riding in the last 2 weeks.
