Doesn't his contract run until October 31st, like most of them do in GP's?

It's already over between Lata and Gariboldi Honda.

WTF? Don't they have Turkey, China and OZ to attend to?

Because of the DeCarli deal? I mean it is strange... especially when Lata found a bit of pace recently.

The third rider from Team Germany - 45 Maximilian Spies (KTM) - had a serious accident yesterday at the ADAC MX Masters in Vellahn, Germany. 
He most likely won't be on the gate at this years MXoN.

Injured 2 cervical vertebra during a crash saturday. There were no signs/symptoms of paralysis though from what I've read. First surgery is already done and successful. A second surgery is possible.

Noah Ludwig might be the replacement but nothing is confirmed yet.

Very serious then, thankfully it doesn’t sound as bad as it could have been. Thanks for the update.

It was his last race with the team. He had no choice to run that last round of the italian championship.

I wish they have picked Glenn Coldenhoff as the 250 / MX2 rider. I think he is the better rider. Roan van de Moosdijk won the ADAC MX Masters, because Max Nagl is injured. Glenn rode better than vdM at the Dutch GP. Furthermore it would be a nice retirement gift for Glenn.

I think USA actually has a shot at a podium. Toss up between Netherlands and Belgium for the win.

Never forget France, this year spain is very strong, belgium, netherlands. For the Epstein coalition a top 5 would be an achievement already. Rj running 4th in ama doesn't match the tempo of let's say Gaijser who is 4th in the MXGP

I didn’t know Weckman was still riding let alone racing.

Raced mostly in the ADAC MX Masters, but also had an injury the past months. He returned last weekend.

Noah Ludwig could potentially be the replacement rider for Maximilian Spies for Team Germany.

Team Canada just went from bad to worse. 

Unfortunately, that seems to be our luck with this event. I figured that was going to be the case. He broke his collarbone and missed the last two rounds of the series. Sadly for him, he had 3rd pretty much locked up until the injury. Overall, pretty good 450 rookie season. 

I expect the spot to go to Tanner Ward or his teammate Quinn Amyotte. They both raced Ironman. Neither broke in the top 20. Rough year. 

There's always next year.

Put Dylan Wright in the Open class and with Rempel on 250's, you've got a shot to make the A. I don't think you do if Wright is in MXGP division. Whoever is the third rider, their score is going to be thrown out anyway.

Curious why you say that? 

Wright is slotted to race Open. Racine was set to race MXGP. 

I mean, we could always swing for the fence and put Rempel on a 450 and Malinoski on the 250. 

Wishful thinking. Malinoski doesn't have the paperwork sorted.

France will announce their team this afternoon. Renaux is out for the rest of the season so Valin will probably will be part of the team with Febvre and Vialle.

That team is actually decent if they perform to their abilities. Starts will obviously be important, but anything else than the A-final is a failure.
