It is in south Moravia. In Miroslav. Here is link on google maps It isn't czech nationals caliber of track neither does there our national junior championhip take place, it is just local track. But it is near his gf's parents place so convinient for kidnapping. :D

Kinda bummer it was so secret only his gf and that one guy above knew about it otherwise it is like 1 hour drive for me. Not every day you can shake hands with world champ. Grinning

Dude "smažený sýr" aka "smažák" is killer. Laughing Literally it will kill you with cholesterol and high blood pressure. But yeah it is our form of local "fast food". Prague is nice i guess. (as a former citizen of Brno - second biggest city in CZ - i am legally obliged to not talk in good terms about Prague - sorta like cali vs. texas rivalry. Silly )
Haha yeah my Ex gf was from Prague so i do know about the rivalry between Brno vs Prague and moreover between bohemian peoples vs Moravian peoples 😭😭😭 I heard a lot about it through her family.

Czech rep is such a nice country i really loved it, the cities, landscape and food ! Enjoy a good smazak for me and some Knedlíky 😀

Very cool, Horgmo is one of the most passionated guys in the paddock. I hope that he stays injury free and has a good season ahead of him. Will they sign another guy for MX2?

Maybe Maxime took Ruben Fernandez as a reference... "if this guy can get an 8th and I've been able to beat him in mx2..."

A calculated guess = Vlaanderen
I don't know. Kimi got the team because he wanted to run the team with less money flow from Kawasaki but, at the end it's a factory team and Kawasaki is boss. That is weird (if you ask me), Kawasaki already signed Febvre for the team and what will be the second rider? How much money does Kimi want to throw into it and how good does he need to be? Did "Not signing Jed Beaton" that he wants someone better? Because then you've (maybe) Lupino, Van Horebeek & Vlaanderen. Or is he in the Aussie waters?

Febvre recently told that team IceOne choice between 3 riders is not done yet.
I bet those 3 riders are Boisramé, Watson and Vlaanderen.
Lupino and Van Horebeek arent on the list, but will be with an italian factory team next year.

Does that mean they have limited,/no kawa support?
I mean just 1 rider in mx2 doesnt sound like something a factory would want?

Van Horebeek still has a contract with Beta if I'm not mistaken. He signed a two-year deal.

He got injured early in the season and then had confidence issues. Plus he’ll be riding for a much better team with guidance from De Reuver.

Horgmo was treated horrifically by his team that year. A real shame.

Don’t think it will be that easy for him. Need a start in MXGP and for me he isn’t a great starter. He may have top ten speed but if he starts from 10th downwards will struggle to get top 6 IMO.

Dylan has already mentioned in an interview or two that he's signed to race in Canada for 2022 and plans on following through with that.

Too bad... Because he showed good potential during the few MXGP rounds he competed in.

He said that if he gets an offer for MXGP that he'll need to have serious talks with his current team before accepting it. He's under contract, yes, but the team won't hold him back if they can make things work.

If he goes to MXGP the GDR Honda team would be without a title contender, so they'd need to find one to replace him.

He's been with GDR Honda for a number of years and he's loyal to them. He won't burn a bridge.

Hoping to see him go to MXGP.

Febvre with a huge crash at Paris SX. Racer x saying broken tib and fib. Long recovery ahead-could this affect their other singing for next season?

His GF said its not femur and they will do scans at hospital so could be not that bad what was first word. Anyway MXGP starts just in couple months with new team for him so not much time to waste.

So it will be Vlaanderen because Watson didnt do much this year and his good runs mx2 were some specific tracks.

He has a 3 week 450 career, he was only on it because he had nothing to ride for in MX2.

He also hasnt done enough in MX2 either, with the kit he had. So either the bikes were no good ( which isnt the case) or they didnt know how to get the best out of them . Flashes of speed, but not enough to make him a valuable signing. .

Ice one need guys who understand what is needed in 450 class, and have been a factory rider themselves IMO.


He cannot carry the development of a new bike on his own.

Watson worked with Febvre a lot at Yamaha, and he tested a fair few parts , Vlaanderen was at HRC and has enough about him to get that Gebben bike into the top 10.
