That crash has been coming for a long long time, Prado is probably the dirtiest rider on the gate, he’s always moving over on people and cross jumping, it was bound to end in tears eventually. I hope they’re both okay cos Prado could’ve easily just ruined all chances of a KTM title

At 50 and 51 seconds, amazing scene. First time I see a smoking glove on a rear disk. That must hurt ...

I am not liking him lately for stupid riding but nobody wants to see heavy injuries. Hope he grows up quickly. Happy it wasn't JH who got injury bad for stupid racing.

Herlings should have backed down for his own safety, knowing Prado would do that crap. Also the left line was steeper. No chance Prado would hold his line. So glad JH isn’t hurt, but he’s got to play the odds better. This wasn’t the final Moto for the deciding points for the championship.

There are 8 GP's in 6 weeks they need every point, Gasjer isn't 100% so Herlings must take as many points as possible these few weeks, no room for errors.

It’s ridiculous that you need to race like this right?
That other riders needs to back down for there own safety is even more crazy.

People from higher end, KTM or FIM need to do something to stop this crazy shit what Prado does.

Prado’s behavior is exactly the type in which rules are then made and penalties put in place to keep people from riding like that. In the history of our sport there has never been any rules in regard to riding dirty. There has always been dirty riders, but more often then not it is still done with a sort of etiquette.

I really hope there is no rule changes in response to his riding and the dude smartens up. Because being able to make a missile out of your bike and
t-boneing a dude with intent to break his leg is exactly what makes moto so cool.

Prado’s riding is absolutely classless and borderline pathetic. It says something about his character.

Unspoken rules amongst riders born of mutual respect are much better then ones found in the rule book.

What happened to Vlaanderen?

Herlings definitely looked pretty timid on the start and didn’t seem to be in a big rush to go with Febvre and Gajser. Looks like he is just happy to ride this one out in one peace. Hard to blame him, must feel pretty sore.

Herlings already settled for 3rd it looks like , cant keep up
Gajser looks to be the fastest this second moto

He screwed up the season of Jonas with a dick move in the MX2, makes it every time dangerous to pass by cairoli and Herlings and now cross jumping on the finish line and takes Herlings out what a dick head.
He reminds me of MM93 in motogp, that guy in his 1st couple years took people out constantly. Is it a Spanish thing?

I wouldn’t say it was one lined, but still really hard to pass on. Same thing yesterday.

Interesting stats:
2 races ago, KTM had 60% probability to win the title (3 riders in to the top 5, all within like 10 points)
Now they have a 33% probability

I still think Herlings will pull it off, but man what a turn of events.

This year is totally crazy in mxgp, one of the best seasons ever (and we are usually spoiled). Now at the 11th GP, 3 men seem to run a little away, but it is also probably the first time 5 riders were within 10 points after 9 rounds (!). That is quite as crazy as the 6 different riders winning the first 6 races in the 250 class this year in the US.

He screwed up the season of Jonas with a dick move in the MX2, makes it every time dangerous to pass by cairoli and Herlings and now cross jumping on the finish line and takes Herlings out what a dick head.

Funny you say that, just watched Hitting the Apex on Netflix. Look back at the 2013 season. Not that I didn’t already think it but Marc races like a dickhead. Blockpassing And initiating contact in MotoGp. Cool bro.

Somebody commented aftert previous GP, sooner or later that Prado will end bad....
What a stupid comment, that was 100% on Prado. Herlings did everything right.
