I have seen this guy riding since he was on a 85cc. And I keep saying this, but he always amazes me with so much talent, dedication and raw speed

I loved riding that track, until 84 showed up and showed us all how you should do it..

If you are not a Herlings fan, you better become one or you'll be pissed for about 5 years.

Incredible to watch, can see how when it goes wrong it goes wrong in a big way.

I doubt it, he'll do just enough to win.

The way he turns sand whoops into double jumps is incredible. No other riders can do that as well as him. Amazing to watch.

Definitely a great rider to watch on a bike. He makes sand look so easy and all that ride in it, knows how hard it is. Not being a fan early in his career, I have grown to really appreciate his talent and growing maturity.Formerly paying to watch the Nationals, I will now be paying to view the MXGP riders and looking forward to it.

He would be the same on any bike.

If you paved that track and put me in a shifter cart, I still don't think I could go that fast.

Not yet, if he can keep on top for the next 3 - 4 years and avoid injury then yes

A rider can be the fatest and most talented on bike even if said rider does not have the most championships. I would say js7 is the most talented/fastest rider ever and there are riders with more titles than him.

Good grief...that dude is probably the best ever...better than RC. It’ll come down to championships, records and legacy after Herlings retires as to which is the GOAT...but I think Herlings is absolutely faster on a motocross track that RC (and he the first rider I could say that confidently about).

How do American riders see videos like this and not soften their suspension?

So pleasant to watch Herlings throw down.

For me, it's because I'm fat.

That my friends is real motocross and good Lord is he good at it. If he can stay healthy like RC did, he will obliterate every MXGP record out there and they won't be touched, just like no one will touch RC's records. Beast mode engaged absolutely.

And, I don't know who the kid is on the 2 smoker riding that track, but we can see how the Euros are so good at MX when their kids are riding tracks like that all the time! And he gets to watch Herlings too. Talk about learning.
