#10: MXGP of Portugal

They are both on a crazy level in different ways. The  pace Lucas has from the get go is something else. They way Herlings keeps going and pushing in the end is something “special” to. Lucas was able to match but how the 84 always can bring the fire at the end off the moto’s is crazy. 

Nobody on GP level is even close to these guys.

Sucks to see Gajser is so hit and miss on that Yamaha and the rear looked bouncy all over the place. 

Honda Gajser would be fun to have in this battle and wonder if he ever regrets he should have taken the paycut at Honda. 

Such a beautiful track

It’s a shame MX2 field is so thin. Farres could have made a lot of points that moto

I'm not subscribed to the TV package this year but the youtube highlight videos make that track look scary fast. Just full send pinned the whole time.

Amazing weekend for Farres! So fast and so composed.

Maybe he can fight for this Championship!

Is Portugal experiencing conditions of the extreme heat wave in Western Europe, they are about as west as you can be.

What happened toward the end of 250 moto 2, I missed it?

Bye bye Lucas?

I'm becoming a fan of Farres and his Triumph. He executed two beautiful motos today. The way he rode looked effortless.

Great for team Triumph, those boys are getting great results from both Farres and Camden.

Herlings vs Coenen ⚔️ good battle / race

Herlings putting in some heater laps now. 

Sometimes I lose sleep thinking about what Herlings' career would like like without all the injuries..

Herlings 1:49.262

Those 3 dnf’s have really hurt Herlings championship chances. IF he can bring it back then it will be a thing of legends. 

Coenen closing the gap.

Nah...84 got this. Put wood to him! Great race

That was an absolute statement ride from Jeffrey. TOTALLY committed to winning that race and Coenen just couldn't hang with him.

117th GP win for Herlings 🏆

Good result for Ben Watson.

Woulda coulda shoulda, we would never know. Same with Kenny. That what makes guys like Everts, RC and Cairoli so special. 

Also.. I believe he wouldn't be out there still if he never got injured. Some years off extended his career and kept him motivated I'm 100% sure.

Also kinda funny how MXGP and outdoors are kinda comparable right now with Lucas and Herlings being similar to Jett and Hunter while you have Febvre who tries his absolute hardest to keep up with the two just like Deegan but is still better than the rest of the field.

Sounds like Coenen wants payback for Herlings running him high. 

I missed that, what was said?

Coenen not happy with herlings move...bring the popcorn.  😆

I really didn't think the move from Herlings was that aggressive, especially when Coenen was riding such a wide bike. 

Best not to let people know you can be rattled by block passes if you're going to be racing supercross and people like Deegan next year 

Just that he was unhappy that Herlings had to pull that type of move & that he might have to do the same thing.
