roninho Added a reply to MXGP of Turkiye
9/4/2023 9:42am Yes. Except that no emx rider will make the trip if its only mx2. The only reason they come now is because its 1 of 10 races on the schedule. Most dont have the budget to do 15+ races so if its only mx2 then they pick some races nearby and for sure not drive 3000km to Turkey. Its why...

9/1/2023 11:38am For a couple of years now Yamaha Europe has had the strategy to focus on one 1 team per class (mxgp-mx2-emx250-emx125). Any other team was via a local branch, like Gebben was via yamaha nl. It used to be that EU spend their money on a lot of teams, but tgat has stopped for a while now. So i cant...

8/24/2023 10:18am I think its a pricing that only works for die hard fans and it ensures that casual fans dont come. I have 3 friends who all have kids and all are casual motorsport fans. We've been to 2 Dutch Masters this year, just the guys with their kids on sunday to the races. A masters is 25 euro for a...

8/21/2023 1:36pm Great races and have to give the mxgp/infront track guys some thumbs up as well. Felt the track didnt product really good racing at the 2 dutch masters/international races they had the last couple of years (kind of one lined & very fast), but the mxgp track guys made some changes that opened up the track a lot more. And...

8/17/2023 3:09pm There will be no qualifying in mxgp. In the end 40 or less showed up. We actually had qualifying at Arco this year and i think switzerland as well.

Can we take a moment to celebrate that they are holding mid-week races with this kind of rider line up? That is just awesome.

8/17/2023 4:39am Snapper, i think it is a bit the other way around... The riders are forced to ride for free because there are just less and less teams with a funded ride.

8/17/2023 3:04am My suggestion would be to get rid of the pitlane interviews during the races and have Lisa give updates on stuff that is happening in the subtop/midpack that the tv broadcast won't follow. Update us on riders retiring and why, show the shot of a guy with a broken wheel in the pit and update us, tell us that Bonacorsi...

Valkenswaard would make sense as the track is open again for practice. with the fact that the promotor now also is involved with Arnhem, I wouldn’t be suprised with a return to Valkenswaard..

8/17/2023 2:45am Yeah i agree with the lack of entries and lack of money for riders. I used to think that he age limit is hurting MX2 big time. But if you get rid of the age limit which teams would offer a funded ride for aged out guys... Because those rides are not available now so why would those rides pop...

8/16/2023 10:27am @ayearinmx and @LewisPhillips The reply of ayearinmx covered a lot but not the major point that Richard made, namely: "Big changes are needed cause the series is just treading water." Whats your viewpoint on that? Is mxgp in a better spot it was 10, 20 or 30 years ago? Are the riders and fans better of now? And what is...
roninho Added a reply to MXGP Rumours/Silly season
8/16/2023 1:25am Well Richard i agree with all the actions you say, but to be honest i don't think MX is ever going to work for 'made for tv'. Sure we mx fans like to see it but there simply isnt a big enough audience to actually make some good money on tv

8/15/2023 11:30pm Position after first lap in both motos: Rick: 1 & 4 TC: 3 & 1 Everts: 4 & 3 That "had to come through the pack" is a bit of an overstatement.
