Prado is winning but I wouldn’t say he’s dominating the races outside of some laps in Spain. It’s already looking like a two horse race though which you would never know the way the media/broadcast fawns over Prado deservingly so right now and Herlings when he’s on screen. Gajser has shown the ability to slice thru the pack with relative ease right now but he needs to start in front of Prado. As it stands now the real test will be the very rare bad start from Prado. In the past he’s given up points quickly by not starting in...

Perhaps one of the surrealist memories I had with him, was sharing the September 11th moment together... I got home from school early because I had passed my driving test that day. He always had funky hours because of his body clock... So I get home, flick on the TV, and boom the news cuts to NY.... I get online...

I knew him for the best part of 25yrs, from MCM2. I was part of the OCR team and knew it was an honour when he accepted me in, because he didn't like bratty kids and at that stage I was 16ish. I finally got to meet him in person when I was 18. Stayed at his house in Redding...

There is GoPro footage from his perspective, but not sure if that's going to get released or not It shows the start crash well, and then he crashes on the corner after where seewer had the big get-off last year

The race is EXTREMELY popular with tourists and all the local businesses, but that land is gonna get used for houses so we will go to a new place
I spoke to him a bit about it before the weekend and he's been super-impressed with everything and obviously that translated into his results. Btw, he's a cool guy and if you need another reason to support Triumph, he's as good as any (McClellan is as well)

Actually, he broke it in another crash later on in the first lap. He rode away from that first turn crash. Definitely sucks though as he'd have made the MXGP class even more interesting
The track has taken the rain well so far, and although we've had showers, it should be good... Looking prime as always Apparently this will be the last year at this exact venue though, but they are trying to get a new place in Patagonia

Bariloche airport is 90mins away from the track. You can get to Bariloche from Buenos Aires numerous times a day on a few different airlines... It's a looooong trip, but easily doable

here are photos from the road coming into the track.... it is 3 miles (5km) on this road in one direction, and 1.8miles on this road in another direction i'm not sure how many ways this can be explained, but there just isn't a way that this track can hold a GP
