#17: MXGP of Turkey

I am curious about that too.  Makes you wonder if he is going to make MXON or not at this point, its only 4 weeks out.  I want him to be there cause he is an amazing talent, but I kinda don't, cause it helps the US, lol

Gifting out of GP of Turkey due to his crash at the Italian championship.

That means that 3-5 riders are out at MXGP for this round: Gifting, Renaux, De Wolf and potentially Coenen and Brumann: 18 riders on the gate.

In MX2: Lata out. Is Mikula racing? 15 riders signed up now.

yeah to me it also seems like a lot of teams/guys are not going with injuries that normally would not stop them from going to a GP in germany or france or whatever

Yes, Mikula Is racing.

I assume it is mudder by the times and participation in free practices

I’m rooting for Yigit Ali Selek in MXGP. Yes, he’s a full 60 seconds slower than EVERYONE (on a two minute lap) in practice, and that means he’ll be lapped every other lap. But, if he digs deep (and just gets his ass to the start line), he’ll be heading for a guaranteed pair of 17ths and eight points. 

And he’ll leave the track (if you can call it that) on Sunday as the 37th-ranked rider in the world championship.

Something to be proud of. 

Has there ever been a time where there were 30+ fast guys at a flyaway at locations where there is no serious mx competition?

I remember from the 80s/90s that either the top 12 or top 15 of the previous season got travel compensation, so we never had more then that nr of permanent riders go to a GP in Brazil or Australia

Yigit has been grinding for months. He will be the next superstar from Turkey in MXGP really soon.

What a rookie debut to finish top 40 in the world in the MXGP class! He is defently on the gas with his turkeys GasGas!

11 riders in EMX125 is a fucking joke. 

I really wonder,,,,, if you're 52 seconds per lap slower than the first......the fact that you're even be allowed to compete in mxgp is already  ridiculous and it's even crazier that you score points..............

.... and it looks like there are even fewer fans at the race.

I think they should put these flyaway races earlier in the season because by this point in the season most riders are done, 

This track sucks.

I’ll tell you all what this fantastic GP needs to make it even better: how about a local rider getting lapped before the second lap to brighten things up? 

If you really want to see what's  wrong with the emx250 you should look at jack cannon he'll still be in the emx next year,,,,,,,,even though he was already making podiums in 2025

Nothing wrong with his credit card it seems. That's about all you need to enter it seems

McLellen losing time to Simon..he can't do any better than 5th. Meanwhile. Farres is building points towards the championship.

For a race like this they should go back to the  system they had until the early 80s where only the top 10 score points . 

Track is pretty shit tbh.

I would imagine they prefer cash. 

Nasty get off for Fernandez. 

There's two reasons this race exists. First, money to Infront from the Turkish government and second,  the manufacturers (in Japan,  not Europe) value the Turkish market. The race itself is horrible. And making the EMX classes go there is borderline criminal. 

14 riders in MX2 is beyond a joke. I could literally score world championship points... Absolutely no jeopardy for the guys in the title fight
