Wow, that’s good for Herlings. And he’s only gonna be 31, so he’s still got quite a few more years (considering C Craig is 34).

How is Craig a comparison in any way?  that guy barely races anymore.

 

herlings will be blazing fast and then crash and get hurt.

There is no comparison. One is a multi-time world champion and the other took 47 years to win a regional SX title.

Herlings would eat Craig alive on any outdoor motocross track in the world.

I don’t know. Just wanted to use an old guy to say Herlings still has a lot of riding in him. So I used CC. Just the way it is.

Lol.

I guess I didn’t realize how old CC was. Now I use him for everything to show how everyone else is young. Loose association I guess. Oh well … 😎

Will look strange seeing JH84 on red (and probably in Fox gear).
Honda will have a strong line-up together with Tom Vialle and Ruben Fernandez.

Curious who will replace Herlings at KTM in MXGP?
De Wolf? Adamo?

De Wolf will stay with Husqvarna for 2026. Probably in MXGP category. With or without a second 250 world title.

I think Romain Febvre would be a decent comparison. Febvre is 33 compared to Herling's 30 (current ages)

Oh wow, I didn’t know he was “that old” 😎

Febvre’s having one of his best seasons. Mayne there’s something to be said about the old guys and the Kawi. Quite a few older guys love the Kawi - very forgiving.

Wasn't he on a very low salary?  Also really wanting to race in the states?

Must be why Prado doesn’t like it. It’s an old man’s bike 🤣

So why is Tom going back to Europe? More money? I thought we had the premier series here. 

Easy answer, takes the multi year deal in europe over the one year KTM deal in the US where he cannot be sure what's happening after that. Smart decision to take that opportunity. Tom strikes me as a person that would have gone back to europe anyways sooner or later, his main goal was to win an SX title, he probably prefers the MXGP schedule aswell where they actually have the winter off and also a lot of off weekends.

Seems like we still get to see him in 450 SX this year at least at some events.

On an “age” level 😎

Obviously is different caliber of rider. Fact is, JH still has several more years of competitiveness

When healthy.  He seems to injure easily.  

Can’t deny his talent, when healthy he’s a threat to win any race he’s at.

I think Herlings could be a real title threat in ‘26, possibly’27 if he stays healthy.
