I thought he will take it easy as he have points lead. Just have a top three finishis and its done. But he is going for it 100%. Top Dog

Dude if he takes it easy for the next 8 motos he’s not winning the championship 😂

Exactly, but if Tiga is able to get 2 wins today he can back-off in China and Spain to control from 3th place. Has been riding with his head the whole season which makes him for me one of the greatest ever.

Man this must be so frustrating for Prado

and Herlings.... getting just 11 but Febvre after his chrash dead last but made it up to 7th 

there you go, prado keeping this championship alive. A little bit worried he left it all out there in this moto hope im wrong
Why was he so mad at the finish?

Not sure either. Maybe not happy with Reneaux. He did cross over a couple times there and he's not in the title hunt. Just a guess though.
I didnt see anything wrong with Reneaux. Track was just hard to pass and 1 and 243 were just slightly faster

14 points
If Prado goes 1-1-1 twice and Gajser 2-2-2 they're even at the end. Assuming Prado wins all the tie breakers at this point.
Don't really care who wins but hoping Prado closes it down to single digits next week and we get a solid finale

I think his pants broke. I'm sure that's what he said after moto two. So I guess he couldn't ride properly.

Don't get me wrong I love watching MXGP and I think the racing this year between the top guys has been awesome but if I ever needed convincing the organisers of MXGP are a complete joke today was it. They had a local Turkish rider in MX2 over 1min10sec per lap slower than the leaders! It clearly shows Luongo and co don't give a sh!t about the riders safety. That track was super fast and then you have this rolling road block wobbling around getting lapped every 2 laps! Just to top off the ridiculousness the guy has picked 3 world championship points just by being there!

Dude I noticed that. That was beyond bad

1st year on the 250 and Valin is about to win the Emx250 title. Great performance!

Yeah exactly, very impressive. I cannot remember we ever had a EMX250 champion winning it in his first season. 

Im not sure but i think Paulin won it in 2008 with Honda Martin and Next year raced mx2 world Championship with Kawasaki Bud Racing.

And Valin is actually young, only 18 years old. Definitely a bright future ahead of him.

Didnt Guadagnini nearly won it in his first full year in EMX250?
