RC is clueless, as usual. Prado hates mud and is not good at it, just as Motofinne said.
It wasn’t that muddy last Night, was it?
he held people up for no reason since he just decided to drop anchor afterwards. maybe thats how you get faster ultimately, but it's really annoying. really hate guys that race that way. don't hold me up if you're not gonna do anythign with it.
It's like Plessinger.. whenever some rain they (in the booth) have to say that now Plessingar... ...and me, myself...I've never seen any brilliance from Plessinger in the mud (then again, to be fair, I've not watched every race either...) but it does sound like an urban legend.

AP has had some unreal rides in the mud. Outdoors on the 250 for sure and indoors 450/250. Is it overdone? Maybe. But he is definitely a threat when it gets muddy...
Prado a good mud rider ? he won that race in the mud because of his start , from all MXGP winners he was one of the worst mud riders ...
Race today showed it again ...
Calling that track muddy is like saying Soutwick is like Lommel….
oh George
Regarding Prado...what was his deal with dropping all the way back to 15th in Cleveland last night? Was getting passed by just about everybody after his usual good start. I expect him to fall a few spots back in SX after the start but that was pretty unusual. Not seeing anything on him being banged up or having shock issues ... just dropped anchor harder than usual or what?
Prado wins a trip back to Europe if he can’t get his shit together this summer.
Better late than never lol
It’s as if everyone has forgotten the Prado game plan for 2026: first survive supercross injury free, then re-establish himself outdoors. Then he can push harder in supercross in 2027. I mean, he and the team have pretty much laid this out there. To his credit, he’s done surprisingly well in SX this year, but it just makes sense for him to back off and not worry about finishing position at this stage in the season. Learning lessons, as RC would say.
That’s a decent plan. It’s just that he’s got a lot to prove come Nationals. Last year was a disaster of epic proportions. Go time for Prado is approaching quickly , he needs to show out. No more excuses.
Well considering how good this SX season has been for him, i would not worry about his upcoming performances outdoors. He will be fighting for podiums and maybe the occasional W this year.
People would be a lot higher on him if he went 3-4-2 the first 3 rounds, rode over his head and crashed out like both his teammates.
The plan is make it through SX, gain experience for 27 and make it into outdoors healthy. So far he's sticking to that aside from the mid season setback. Top 10 in points after missing 3 rounds.
15th last weekend probably wasnt part of the plan though. Not sure what happened but he looked like absolute crap the moment rain started to fall in race 1.
Agreed. Kawi Prado was not at all representative of his true ability. Anyone who's watched MXGP regularly - seemilngly not many on this forum - know this.
Prado always been a pretty bud mud/rain Rider.
Remenber 2024 mxgp season race with rain...
Cleveland are his comon result in that type of races.
Smart from prado no risk to take on soon slippery supercross track........
Pit Row
Last summer taught us that he’s afraid to hang it out even a little bit unless the stars are aligned perfectly to suit him, that’s for sure.
Cleveland was not a mud race….I keep seeing that excuse from Prado fans and if that was a mud race….. he better stay away from the water truck when outdoors comes around….
I think KTM is getting Prado set-up to take on MC at the Holeshot Kingz theyre having down the center aisle at the big caffeine-free church in Salt Lake City
I wouldn’t be pointing to his SX this year as a gauge to how he’ll do outdoors. Especially this last Saturday.
Moto 1 it looked to me like Mookie rattled him and he went into his frantic panic mode. He started flailing about and casing jumps and frantically looking around as the train rolled past. Didn't look like he was just executing a plan to take it easy and save it for outdoors.
Former cop and current cowpoke Justin Hill rode his horse down from the mountains of Wyoming to pass George up in the points this weekend on a privateer version of the same bike.
Ahhh, ok. Can you let us all know when he is going to try then and stop "taking it easy"? Just want to know which results count and which don't?
1 point ahead? Prado has been sitting out 3 races and -3 points due to a sound test...
But he rode good, passed a factory Kawasaki rider in the last race.
Not just yet! Even fkn Albertyn won a SX race. (LA 1 1997)
Jorge will be fine, no worries!
I know Cleveland wasnt a mud race and for that reason i said mud/rain... When rain start to fall down he back It down... Always does that.
I was at Materley bassin for the MXoN and when started to rain he went backwards and was a little bit of rain.
When he is on the podium or top 5 or winning heat races, all in sx, you don’t ask these questions… can you tell us why?
You're the one that said the results "don't count" and/or are excusing them and only want to count the good ones. I know the answer. All results count. He is trying at every race (this year). Even the ones when he is not there. He is behind Justin Hill in the championship, and if he was" taking it easy" to make it through SX, why has he missed 3 races?
I don't get the way things trend around here. "Prado is going to be unstoppable because he is riding so good in SX that he is in 10th behind a guy that doesn't race anymore." I just don't get it. I am trying to be objective about it here, but I can't find the logic.
