Great ride from Gifting, he's such a fun rider to watch. You never know what he's going to do from lap to lap.
Lovely to see vd Moosdijk getting that race win and Gifting making it even more difficult for the GasGas team with his progress week by week
Ben Watons gets his first carreer GP win today at Lommel! and Roan Van De Moosdijk gets his first carreer moto win!
First win for RVDM! Really nice to see some new winners this week! This must feel good for them.
What about Renaux, on the podium in Lommel! Impressive by his ride and improvement this week. Hats off!
Gifting.. What can we say about him? He gets better everytime and looks like the real deal. He deserves a spot on that Factory GasGas next year!
Good GP Debut by Benistant. This one will be overlooked by some people. He is like Gifting the real deal for next year!
Geerts... What is wrong with him? I feel for this kid. He’s never been a crasher before and now he is crashing at least 1 time a moto. He did atleast some Gasjer style with the visor.. lol.
Vialle on his way for his title!
Pit Row
He needs some serious mental training in the offseason, the talent is there.
I feel for him, as he is capable of much more as what he has showed this year.
When he signed with ixs last year i thought he would have a great year. Hope they’ll figure things out for ‘21
- going from a satellite to a full-factory team gives extra pressure
- the weight of a nation on his shoulders. National media began spending more and more attention to the sport due to Geerts' results this season after several years of oblivion. Could've been the first Belgian worldtitle since Steve Ramon in 2007 and the first in MX2 since 2003.
- and most of all, the sudden death of his mentor Dirk Geukens (hart failure) a week or two before the championship fired up again in Latvia. I think this affects him more than anyone - including himself - can imagine.
- oh, and his suspension looks way off sometimes according to me, but that's another discussion.
Ending second in the championship ain't that bad either (third rider is even 100 points behind), but that's not what he's racing for. In my eyes, the saying "he didn't win silver, he lost gold" is what sums up Geerts' season.
I just feel for him as he gets known as a "crasher" now, which he never was before. And actually he isn't at all. A lot of work to do at the Yamaha-squad in the offseason.
And it won't be easier. Vialle, Hofer, Van de Moosdijk, Beaton,... will all have more experience and (normally) will be a bit better. His new teammate Renaux will go for the title aswell, not easy for a team to have 2 guys aiming for the same thing. Some young guns like Benistant and De Wolf. Will be an interesting season.
A 13th and 7th place in the heats is not the result I had in mind for this GP. My start was very good in both heats. Today I lost control of my bike four times, each time the same way. With three more Grand Prix on the calendar, I will continue to work with my team to fine-tune the set-up of my bike. Before heading to Italy, we will do some more tests. Now it is all a bit disappointing, but it can only get better if we continue to work hard all together.
I dont see bike setup to be real problem.
