#8: MXGP of Latvia

Wtf man.
Reneaux also. That's his 3rd or 4th mechanical this season? Crazy
Welp this title is over. I guess the only silver lining is that maybe this title fight is a little less in his head at Thunder Valley if he has a 70 point lead now

No fucking way. 3 mechanical DNFs this year and it's only round 8. What the fuck is going on at HRC

The first dnf was a fluke, the other 2 are on HRC. 

Yeah, I was just letting my mind flow when I was typing, the 3 dnfs were to emphasise his bad luck, but 2 mechanicals on HRC is still insane

After Herlings' last mechanical I was already thinking title is probably Coenen's unless he gets hurt. This just cements it

Anyone know how many technical/mechanical failures Gajser had in his entire time on the HRC 450?

How many mechanical DNFs did Herlings have on KTM? How many did HRC have with Gajser or Fernandez? 

If Herlings didn't have bad luck he'd have no luck at all

I only know of some that were caused by incidents that Gajser had, but nothing like what Herlings is going through.. that is kinda insane

I was thinking that myself, I can’t remember a time the KTM just stopped on Herlings, a couple of years ago he ripped the foot peg off in France.

Herlings has to be up there with the most unlucky riders in history. So many season ending injuries from small crashes, now this crap when he's the only guy who looks capable of keeping Coenen hoenst. Moto gods are cruel

He had that chain derail in Sweden that prompted him to go Ironman that year. Other than that, last year in the mud in Portugal perhaps?

Yes, the chain snapped that day & I believe the bike died in the slop.

Needham was only his practice mechanic. Race weekend has been the same. The woman and Furlotti.

So this is the 2027 that Fernandez raced all 2025 season? But now it's production based bikes they are getting?

Honda got to be some what nervous with potentially thousands of bikes rolling of the production lines as we speak.sure, average Joe isn't Herlings. But could be another Triumph moment, worst case.
