Can someone remind me 

On mxgp TV, the time it displays for race schedule, is that the local time?

I see that Seewer is now wearing a Bell helmet, he’s been Shoei forever.

The dirt isn't what we're used to in Argentina. Looks like a lot of rocks in there.

You guys must be spoiled for rocks. Here in the Northeast that would not even be considered rocky...That is just normal.

Health and starts is gona prevent Herlings from winning this year if he is a second faster than Coenen in time practice.

He looks really good on the Honda. Surprised he that comfortable.

Bell helmet, because of his FOX contract (same as Nestaan Husky and Gariboldi Honda teams).

No that is not the reason why, he had Shoei helmets in 2025 when he was running Fox gear.
The reason is that Shoei haven't had their helmet homologated for the latest FIM standard for 2026, so you cannot race with it at FIM sanctioned events. 
 
Bell (owned by the same owners as Fox) do have an homologated helmet so that is the natural pick for him.

Here is the list:

Zanocz only 16th in time practise and over 2 seconds slower than Janis Reisulis? Ouch. I would hope that it was down to nerves, i would expect much better pace from him.

Yep, I knew that. 

FOX helmets are not homologated neither, that's why all those "FOX" guys are actually wearing Bell helmets.

Nice to see #20 Mikula making strides. His race pace is as usual great. 💪 Realistically he is going to be battling with non(big) factory riders in races like Walvoort, Zanocz, Karssemakers, Valk and Mancini.

Interesting that Langenfelder unlapped himself, but fair game, and good training and confidence for tomorrow!

Mikula really impressed me in Sommieres International two weeks ago!

They do get tested at an insane fee (from what I hear 20 a 30k euro and each shell size needs inividual testing) Criteria are comparable with ECE2206 so yes, it’s a money thing again

Man Vialle really shows why he is a multi time champion. I thought top 5 was a decent start but he is killing it


Lappers are delusional though
