I applaud the track diversity of the GP's. It can have a drastic effect on the season points totals. Multiple deep sand tracks, hard pack tracks, loamy tracks, more mud races, etc
Different riders excel in different conditions.

Most of the US tracks have become clones of each other with soil composition and track prep. We have zero hard pack tracks and we only have one real sand track on the circuit unfortunately.

i got lapped in the first race but not in the second. i had a concussion only 7 days before the gp and i was struggling. sorry. lommel isnt your average gp though. its a very specialist condition and to compare it to southwick is the most ludacris thing ive ever heard. its two completely different levels of deep sand.

It's cool to have such diverse track on the GP. Frossard lost of lot of points to Herlings this weekend and next race at Loket is the exact opposite hard pack and slick.

What does lapping some guys that were not fast enough to get and keep rides in the states really prove?

Hey, didn't you get an 8th in your first visit to Lommel, we know you're fast when all goes well.
Good luck for the rest of the season!

You`re only as good as your last race. And you call yourselfs fans of motocross.

I don't follow. I am a fan of motocross. I just don't believe bragging about lapping guys from here that were forced to go to Europe to secure rides is worth it. If they were lapping Dungey and Stewart that would be something. Until then they are fast Euro's.

Wow! This hard pack specialist is getting arm pump just looking at that. yeah, funny how Frossard just won a GP and then looks like an amateur in this stuff. Great diversity over there.
