Brilliant by Jeffrey once again. Very smart the way he used Tim there to keep himself focused in the moment and on the race. Congrats to Romain too - still an amazing season.

Jeffrey really earned this title. Fighting through those injuries, pain, coming back to chase the title really is something special. Seeing his mechanic for 12 years Tureluren in tears (all the stresss coming out) shows how much dedication those guys have day in day out. Well deserved.

Also a big shoutout to Gajser and Febvre for their fights, amazing rides and giving us a hell of a season. They’re all champions in my book.

Just walked by the back of staging and Febvre was sitting there with his head in his hands hunched over. Must be gutted. Shouldn’t be ashamed...
Febvre will redo a lot of races in his head...Especially with all the small mistakes he made in the beginning of the season mostly while leading. Same scenario for Gajser. But as stated as above nothing to be ashamed of.

Man, i feel for Febvre but there can only be one winner. Congrates to him, so close...5 points..nothing to be ashamed of. Also TG243...those guys were flying.

Congrats to Herlings, well deserved.
Man Febvre must be thinking what could have been without his crash seeing how close Gajser came in the end

Feel for Febvre, it will be tough for him to have made a mistake and given his chance away, if he’d have raced Herlings all the way and got beat, then it would’ve been perhaps a bit easier to accept.

Herlings though, what more can you say about him? Pressure was on he passed Febvre in both motos and went 1-1. Even with the title wrapped up he still raced for the win and held off the charging Gajser. An incredible display

Ruben Fernandez did pretty good in his mxgp excursion 12-6 today for 8 overall.

Like Herlings said, he got 2 points for free but won by 5 anyway. He deserves it.
11/10/2021 7:14am
Considering Herlings had 4 no scores, he did pretty good in my eyes.

Ended up with most laps led, most moto wins and most overall wins.

Great season! Febvre was right there but Herlings had just little raw speed to come back.

Congrats to Jeffrey on the championship. And congrats to Romain and Tim on spectacular seasons. Those 3 gave us the best championship season ever and should be proud of the way they performed.

Get the fuck out the way and let them race.
You can’t seriously be mad about Prado not letting Febvre by easily?

Ironic handle.

I wanna see a good race, not a teammate hold a guy up, let his teammate go, and then make a dick of himself for another lap or two before not being able to handle the pace.

But sure, let’s be ok with team orders in an individual sport that essentially fixes the outcome.

Wouldn’t you rather watch a good man to man race?
I'd hate to know how you feel about supercross where ktm has like 40% of the field

This season was so good. Great riding by Herlings, Febvre and Gajser with flashes of brilliance of Seewer there near the end as well as Cairoli and Prado throughout the season!

When they brought the news in Oss that Herlings wasn’t lining up for moto two me and my girl said to each other “fuck, another season gone!”. Well boy were we wrong! Such a magnificent title.

This should be a lesson to Kawi to put more bikes on the track, both here and in MXGP. There is no reason they can’t support another 450 operation. Hell, pay Mitch to run 1 or 2 450s.

I feel for Febvre, but title is in good hands. Best work today did Prado for Herlings in first moto.

My meaning was in terms of talent and determination Kenny has exhibited in the past and can do again. ATL in 2021 comes to mind.
