I agree with a lot of things you said, but AP impressed me to be honest. I expected more from Reneaux and Febvre, they usually step up at their MXON performances, Vialle too.

Prado seemed like he gave in after Fernandez crashed, he will leave to test SX soon.

As a Dutchie, I hoped (and expected) to have Herlings up front with Gajser, Jett and Tomac during the final moto. Matterly is not his greatest track (even though he had that legendary battle with Cairoli a few years back) and I think he was riding a bit tight. Coldenhoff did have some bad luck, but he didn't show the raw speed either. 

The race itself was awesome. I loved seeing Tomac up front and pulling the holeshot in moto 3, he looked pissed off after the moto though! Gajser beating Jett was something I didn't expect. If you don't know him, please watch his vlogs. Such a likeable guy and a true humble sportman, whom really appreciates his fans

Not sure about Prado. He is hired by KTM till the end of the Year.  Testing the new bike and SX will be challanging.

Prado broke his KTM contract to train on US SX tracks soon with the Kawi.

Overall most impressive, Gajser and Coenen edge it for me overall, Gajser going 1 in the first Moto looking very comfortable and  and obviously 1 in the toughest race and the pass etc 

Coenen showed amazing speed and was clearly faster than Vialle in the qualifier using Tom as a yardstick easily running him down on Saturday and passing so many top 450 guys on Sunday, gutted he crashed as it robbed us of seeing what he could do in race 2

 

Reisulis is up there too, ET for only doing something like 5 races coming into this and that holeshot and running upfront, but also impressive for many reasons was Febvre, he should get some credit, amazing speed in Moto 1 as he ran down Tomac but a rock in the eye from being so close denied him the pass and put an end to him seeing properly, he almost didn't race the 2nd Moto, hardly being able to see out of one eye may well have caused that crash 

Thanks to notice Febvre's sunday performances. His job for team France was well done until his late issue in the 3rd moto.

The most impressive individual ride to me was Kārlis Reišulis, stood out all weekend. Had to feel good to him to finish in front of Webb in that 2nd moto.

Most impressive ride that effected the team results to me was Webster. Didn’t think he’d be a factor in mx2 at all, and he ended up being the catalyst for victory…my question now is, does this end up helping him get a real ride? Factory Honda 250 or mx2?

I am pretty disappointed in myself as a fan, I wish I put more effort into following MXGP more closely so I knew what to expect further into the field. I think its because our formats differ so much, I don't put too much thought in judging our guys against them. Kinda like Webb said last night.

People I became a fan of, Ruben Fernandez, Webster, Ferato.

Disappointed still with Anstie, and Coldenhoff.

quietly impressed with all of Team Canada.
