Fingers crossed for Van Erp, sounds awful.  

Jamie Keith with a flag to flag win in the British MX2 moto 1surprised me a bit. 

It surprised him too. 

Post race interview with Jeff Perret is gold. 

Full Replay from all of yesterday's action.

 From MXVICE : 

"Ivano van Erp of the DCN Vos Oss KTM team crashed during the second moto of the Dutch MX Nationals in Oss on Sunday and sustained serious injuries. After a strong second-place finish in the first moto, van Erp suffered a torn aorta near the heart, as well as a broken collarbone, shoulder blade, and sternum in the crash.

Van Erp was transported to the hospital by trauma helicopter, where he underwent surgery. Late last night we received the news that the operation went well and that Ivano is stable."

Sorry rym, I just went back and saw you'd put that up already.

Nasty injuries - life threatening. Good to see they say he's (relatively) OK.

What happene  to produce such awful injuries?

…I saw Eric last year at Lommel, he is a trainer now for Dutch riders.

I didn't know he still rode?

Chirurg met helikopter
Niet veel later ging de coureur hard onderuit in de tweede omloop. Hij werd vervolgens lange tijd behandeld door de hulpdiensten. Zeker niet voor niets blijkt nu. Een traumahelikopter zette de chirurg af in de omgeving van het parcours. Deze arts heeft een stent bij het hart geplaatst, omdat de situatie van Van Erp kritiek was.

It was even worse. A surgeon was dropped of at the track with a helicopter and placed a stent near the heart at the track because the situation was that critical... Wow!

He got 3rd in the 125 WC in 2001 for KTM!

I'm probably wrong, but I think Eric was one of the main SXF250 development riders, for a while after that.

I think He (and another rider?) raced the first ones in the GPs (2002?) while Townley and others were still on 125SXs, though Ben's winning year was on the SXF in 2004.

Moto 2 of the 450 class was cancelled yesterday at Oss. They red flagged moto 2 of the 250 class due to Van Erp his crash. No official reports yet so I will not add any details for speculations, but it sounds like it was really serious..

Fernandez had a crazy startcrash at the Spanish round. Seems like he still got a good result.

Amazing ride by Doensen in moto 2, with the win. That should be a good confindence boost for him 

 

Fingers crossed for Van Erp, sounds awful.

I've been on the Keith bandwagon for a while. Kids style on a 125 was amazing how slow he looked. Injuries though definitely hampered him.

Thanks, there are always things that can be better , which we work on from round to round, but its a small crew, with 4 cameras and a roving cam , and we had the drone again which is excellent and i think shows how it should be used. 

Over the 3 places it goes out MXGB-TV, TNL Sports (who are the crew) and FIM-Moto.TV we are over 100,000 view on You Tube , which is insane to think really,  but for a free Stream it is worth every penny.

I'm not too familiar with the UK scene but isn't Keith like the biggest young talent you have at the moment? And he can't get the budget to race a full EMX250 season? I can't think of anyone that has "made it" without doing full seasons of EMX250 in that part of their careers.

At this point, no. 

My guess is he will fly to Manchester.

Harri Kullas back in Europe? Not seen that name for a while. I guess he didn't get a spot on a team for AMA Supercross? Anyone know if he'll do Pro Motocross?
