Haven’t seen it posted yet. Jorge Prado is staying for A2. He confirmed it on the Weege show.

That's awesome. Hopefully he gets to run another dry race before he goes back.

I hope he comes back and wins the series ala JMB. He’s only ridden SX for how long?

What gear does he wear? I don't think it is the gear of the team he is on?

According to Lady Faye and the WOAT, our clueless team, he's in a plane to Spain right now.

Prado is the sports greatest hole-shot artist, and he is a fantastic rider, but at best, he is the world's 6th fastest MX'er. More likely 7th or 8th.

He can probably succeed at SX, and it will be great to have in the US full-time in 2025.

You forgot to check the scoreboard.

2x MX-2, 1x MXGP title in a season without much racing by the four guys in MXGP faster than him, so I would say that his MXGP title is due more to luck & circumstances than to skill.

 

You opinion may be different, but that is mine.

I haven't been around MX for quite some time, but every time I hear her, I wonder why she is in the mix.

Where did she come from?

You gotta be in it, to win it. He raced all the rounds, they didn’t.

He’s using what his team use in MXGP - Airoh, Scott, Thor & Sidi

I love that he's racing another round. Probably will see him sooner or later in this series.  He has a great attitude and doesn't sound pompous at all.

I know it's been said and I'm sure financially it still makes sense, but either way, massive props to TLD for letting them pit out of the TLD GasGas while the guy is wearing Airoh and Thor.

Happy to hear we have another round with Prado, top 10 in the championship after 3 rounds as a legitimate n00b is an amazing effort.

I didn't know stupidity was a opinion but a way of life for a guy like you.

You have to be able to ride to actually be faster. Your statement and Prado’s titles prove that.

You guys are full of shit if you think Jorge is faster than 84, 243, 959, Febvre, Eli, 18 or 94, among others.

No way the race is happening in Argentina. With Milei getting elected, he’s cut all unnecessary government offices and expenditures. No reason a govt should PAY for a moto race. I doubt we see it happen. Which is awesome, get to see prado race one more time in person! Hope he comes back next year full time.

Only Gajser was not in Argentina in 2023, Prado left that GP with the Red plate and he did not lose it in the whole Championship. Therefore your opinion is not supported by the facts.

You're just braindead. Prado was 17 when he won his first MX2 title and it was against many fast guys. Jonas, Geerts, Olsen, Vlaanderen and Hunter Lawrence.  He's only gotten faster as well...

I mean if gajser and herlings would have been racing prado aint winning it but lets see him do it again with both racing. Then he gets full props.
