Anyone know if that's true?
I thought he was a year older than Prado. Been in EMX for some years as well
Google gives: April 21, 2000 Date of Birth so he is more likely 18.

Hyped he got an overal podium!

Yeah I thought so.
Still really young, awesome to see him progress.

No gap's big enough with Jeffrey back there but Tony's looking good.

Feel for Romain, that was rough.

Wow that was shitty by AJ. Probably not intentional but sucks for Febvre

Herlings hauling, 5sec+ faster than everyone but Cairoli

Did Cairoli's pace drop, or Herlings just found his rhytm?

Cairoli still in striking distance, he's giving it his all.

Awesome race by Herlings but damn he had some sketchy moments. Cairoli had some problems as well as soon as he started pushing when he got passed

Fair play to both guys, that was a fantastic race. Herlings is just incredible to watch in these conditions, I'll never get tired of watching it. Credit to Cairoli, it looked like this thing was completely over this time yesterday, and he made Herlings really work for it today and really hung it out

Cairoli rode very strong! Theres just a little bit missing in his speed. He can go as fast as herlings for some laps but he has to push so much to keep his pace that he makes small mistakes, it just takes a small mistake and jeffrey is out of reach. I honestly thought this was going to be a snooze fest but AC kept him honest.

I think the advantage in the rollers comes from Jeffery being taller. Awesome race from TC tho! He kept the beast honest.

Yeah right, what advantage would paulin have

Pretty crazy to see the level Herlings is on right now. Last year him and Cairoli seemed to be fairly equal with Herlings having the edge over Tony. Now, less than a year later Herlings has stepped up tremendously.

He 32 and in the past he didnt have to, to win a race, thats it. Jeffrey always pushed himself in the past. When he won with 10 sec ahead of 2nd, the next race he pushes himself to win with 15 sec ( for example)

In the first race that was the case, but it took him less that 10 mins to get to second in race 2 and Cairoli had given him a 10+ second gap to close down. Obviously it wasn't enough but he put up a good fight

Meant compared to TC. Mxvice kept saying that’s where he was doing most his damage.
