MXGP pre-season, national championships and international races

Chad Prince & Charlie Hucklebridge, sons of Neil & Mark? 

Yes.  

Charlie been on a 125 in RFX125 British in 2025, and Chad is moving up this year in the SC Sporthomes Team that Neil Prince runs. 

Also Seth Priem son of Manuel Priem, former Aprilia and Kawasaki rider. 

Good British entry this year, in past seasons lots of riders have skipped this to stay in Spain training , or just not bothered. 

Josh Gilbert makes his debut for Apico Honda, taking over the ride vacated by the retirement of Martin Barr, who also lines up on a privateer Husqvarna , assuming he survives 2 nights of Belfast AX on friday and saturday. 

Its the best MX1 entry for years MX2 is a bit light, but i expect Langenfelder and Valin to be close, Valin ran away with it last year , even after a massive off at the top of the hill on the way down on the opening couple of laps of practice. 

Hayden Statt makes his Chambers KTM debut  in 125 , no Drew Stock as he is wherever JK Yamaha are at the minute, loads of good new talent in there. 

Looking forward to it, one of the few races i go to that i actually manage to watch as a spectator, rather than in a box trailer looking at a monitor. 

Start-list (MX1 and MX2) for this week-end Sommieres internationnal race (France) is stacked! And last but not least, weather will be OK. 

Can't wait to be there!

😎

Coenens not doing any pre season events?

They were in Alghero (italian race). And they were in Pernes les Fontaines (France). 

And they will be in Sommieres this sunday!

Add Lucas and Sacha Coenen to those lists.

Any word on Kay de Wolf’s injury? 

It looks like a hand injury.

The superpole lap from Valin (250) where he is 1.4 sec faster than De Wolf (450) :

Team may have made changes. Remember how bad Yamaha was when Tomac went to them. 

Just a few more weeks for MXGP. Anxiously awaiting over here!

JH seemed quite calm, maybe a sign he like the new bike??

Thumb surgery for De Wolf today.

Ouch, this means his out for a couple of weeks?

Possibly missing the 1st GP in Argentina, yes...

My bad I was just generalizing.
