Where are the doubters, the people who called him a crybaby?!

Viva España!

Kawi engine guy says he's still not a champion because it's only a 3 race series and no whoops

I called him a crybaby in 2025, because he was being a crybaby. 

I also think it’s great that he’s giving it his best efforts this year. I’m definitely happy for him and was rooting for him tonight. 

Kawi engine guys best setting got trounced by twisted developments package. And kawis package was only as good as it was because of Prado pushing to to deliver something worthwhile.

Even after all that, the factory kawi mega dollar program wasn’t as good as twisteds engine…

Only answer that refutes the characterization just occurred. Receipts.

Cry baby, or knew that his situation was shit and he couldn’t perform like he knew he was capable? 

I’m sure you wouldn’t stay with a company if it sucked and there was the potential for a better opportunity. 

Couple of them are here.

He was crying more after winning than losing. So happy for the guy. That was an amazing ride that second moto. He navigated lappers well. Handled pressure well and reacted perfectly when Deegan took his shot. I thought Deegan would wreck him but he managed to avoid it.

Hopefully he kicks on and continues to improve in 2027. More competition is healthy. Especially with Eli retiring. 

I thought this title was meaningless?  

1 million bucks says otherwise....

There was so much poor judgment and lack of empathy shown in regards to Prado’s situation last year. 
Well Jorge just said you guys can suck it!

Anyone but Deegan.

The lows make the highs so much better. I’m sure prado feels on top of the world going from the literal bottom and climbing all the way to the top. Crazy redemption story. 

Suck it Fahie and team Kawi!!! Just resign…

Took the words right outta my mouth

I didn’t like his quitting last year, but it was necessary for Kawi to be like “yeah off you go, bye” 

Knowing he took a massive pay cut (millions) to go to KTM, that gained my respect, putting your money where your mouth is.

He was the best guy in Moto 2 when it mattered today, 

Success is the best revenge ….

I’ll eat my words on this one and have no problem wearing the egg. I was a fan before he came here, he lost me with how the Kawi deal went down but god dayum he might’ve actually gotten a dollar here for all the naysayers he proved wrong throughout this whole season. Power to the 2-6

The title is meaningless. But the money isn’t. 

Great job Prado.He earned it tonight with that 2nd moto ride.

From the first moment i heard he signed with Kawi i thought WTF! They are china mopeds with a inferior race team lead by a gandalf old dude, just no!

Soo happy he got out of there, no matter what! Did not look good but extreme situations take extreme measures… like try to not qualifying… 

Think Kawi scratch their heads now?

How would you know you don't ride and have never raced Motocross. You know nothing about proper bike set up. These guys are racing at the highest level for BIG $$, risking their lives and well being. 

He did not feel right on the Kawi and wanted out. It cost him millions from what the broadcast said. Turned out he was right as proven by Chase Sexton sitting on the sidelines recovering from a bike that pitched him off.

He was not crying, he was telling the truth and in the end, he was proven correct.

Now I am sure you will come up with some kind of graph or bar chart as you have never been wrong on this site ever. 🙄

Spanish riders deliver in 2026.

Garcia (EMX 250), Farres (MX2), Prado (SMX) and Guillen (WMX) won. What a year!

We'll see how it will end in Ernée (MXoN) !

Wonder what Chase is thinking?

Never doubted his ability but I did think his attitude last year was pretty shitty.

What is your opinion on Sexton this year? 
Is he being a crybaby too?

All teams should take note (when applicable) that if they're not currenlty listening to their riders in terms of what they want out on the track and are actively dimissing their setup suggestions etc, then they should have their heads examined.... It's just a waste of both parties time.

Jorge isn't perfect or blameless but he's made Kawasaki look like utter fools all season. It couldn't really have been worse for them.

He’s one of the best right now.  Adapted quick and is so smooth and fast.

He gave up last year and tried to not qualify.  That’s really lame.  

I think he vindicated himself and I was happy to see him win while still thinking he had a bad attitude.

🤚

Could’ve handled last year way better but will admit he’s proved himself and will be a player in ‘27. Hope everyone comes into next season healthy? It should be good
