Bravo Caroli ! No doubt it is one of his best races of all time, this footage will stay a long time !

Wow, that's racing! What a ride by Cairoli!

Also, lets see what this did to Herlings's mojo! After this ride I feel he will be a tough cookie at Valkenswaard!

Unreal best lap by cairoli. I think he found a incredible line in the second half of the track judging what the live timing was telling..

I bet herlings will be back, that track does not suit him and he rode his ass off that second moto. Gajser is a true champion, on a track that doesn't suit his balls to the wall style and he still won a moto.

This track is very Gajser-like. Hard, slick, tight and start is everything (if you're not Cairoli). He won man to man from Herlings in 2015 and went 4-4 last year.

Who will stop Tony next week? I guess no one.

Yep, probably no one. In Latvia neither.
Gajser should be back on top in Teutschenthal and Ernee.
This title fight is gonna get interesting

Herlings. Everyone will be cheering for him and he never lost in Valkenswaard.

Don't toot your horn too fast. He's getting better and better, but top 5 overall would be a good result for him considering the circumstances. Maybe even podium. But this Cairoli? No.

I disagree, I think gajser is better in soft loamy type tracks..... this is just from watching on the TV but when the guy has traction he is very hard to beat. (Patagonia)

After watching today's second moto on tv I don't wanna say that Tim is gonna crap in his pants, but he's gonna start feeling some unexpected pressure..... he looked very disappointed on the podium

Unbelievable ride by Cairoli, one of his finest given the field and track!

The charge in both motos in Argentina were impressive and understated but today - wow! He's back!

Next weekend can't come soon enough!

It's sand dude. Instead of winning by 15 seconds he'll win by 5 seconds in his current state. This 4th place was liberating.

I agree I have never heard of AC222 excelling in sand races, should be a walk in the park for JH84 in his current state.

Antonio could have cleaned them all out with his passes, but he didn't and that's why he is so respected and no one in the paddock has a unkind word to say about him. The friendship and working relationships these riders and teams develop from racing as youngsters to retirees in circumstances that include coming from different cultures, languages countries and traveling the world forms a bond of respect and happiness for each other in both the failures and triumphs. How many of his fellow riders stopped to congratulate him on his youthful celebration and glee, all those he outrode in this one race, repect

I could expect this reaction from the self proclaimed biggest AC fan from the States.

I bet however you're not 100% sure he's gonna beat JH in Valkenswaard.

I expect JH for the win. After that, Cairoli back on top.
