#12: MXGP of Great Britain

I’m with you. If they had left it just chalk there wouldn’t be any deep ruts but still would have been technical in its own way.

Quali races for points now! mx 2 at the gate

Farres will leave this weekened with the red plate / Stamp it!!!

Simon looking good so far. Hope he can close in some points this weekend and make this a 3 horse race again

Sacha is a sicko

Seewer: "I just want to enjoy it again"

lol, how bad must the bike have been?

Even when Lucas has bad races/bad luck Herlings can barely make points up.. That was a weird move from Febvre, wasn't it?

What happened to Lucas?

Got landed on by Renaux on the first lap which made him go slighty off the track and crash. He didn't look super hurt, no clue about the bike.

Ruts on concrete. Ugh. Layout is cool at least. 

That was a really important ride from Herlings.

Great comeback ride from Herlings 

Decent showing from Watson for the Brits.

Such a shame Mewse decided not to race. Would love to see how he'd stack up against the rest of this field

Still 7 points.. looked really good great comeback.

That had to be the absolute worst track to race with a broken collarbone. What a ride by Sasha - dude proving he's a beast. 

Curious to find out what happened to Lucas. Hopefully it's just a bike issue after the crash. He seemed fine in timed practice.

+40.801 = Pauls Jonass

Ruts on a chalk base - even worse. The natural base soil there is chalk which is the slipperiest shit you could possibly imagine to race on. 

Jesus, track looks worse than I was expecting. Although at the same time that's how track prep is for clubs week in week out over here as well so it probably shouldn't be a surprise. 

Slot car-tastic. 

Yep, rutty as fk and must be horrible to ride, leave it chalky and if it rained (which could of been a high possibility in UK) then it becomes icey as fk, 

The track crew had to do something to the improve the texture, but it must be hard to get it spot on 

How about flattening out some of  the ruts between motos? 

just watched the qualifying race and first time Foxhill track.... crazy looking up and down track...very highspeed track i would say 🫣

I was there Friday afternoon. As I walked by Seewer and some fans, Seewer was asked what was wrong with the bike. His reply was simply 'everything'. 

Well Seewer has to back up all his talk with some results in the next couple of months. There was a Duc in the top 10 again yesterday so yeah.

Anyone having issues with the stream? 

Yep it's jerky and no audio.

Hope they get it sorted by the time the 125’s go out. 

Seems sorted now.

Looks like they’ve got it sorted.
