I would imagine that for Vlaanderen back at van Venrooy KTM would have to step up for that. I mean Valk is a KTM rider so he is bringing KTM support to Venrooy this year or Venrooy is KTM supported and gets Valk assigned, however you want to word it. Unless Venrooy switches brand next year, but they were always...

Just that i understand it correctly what you are saying: There is no more factory Yamaha in MX2 for next year?

The assumption that 40 EMX riders would sign up for MX2 if the EMX250 class wouldn’t exist is based on absolutely nothing.

Infront should give it a long look how to get those strong teams in EMX250 to drop emx and do the same calendar but in MX2. If the majority of Bud Racing, VHR Yamaha, Fantic, RFME Junior, Dixon, CAT Moto, Kosak, AIT, Dirt Store, Gabriel SS, JM Honda and Ghidinelli would race in MX2 we'd have 40 riders in MX2...

I saw that point about Tondel making some money at the nationals a few times in some topics, so just asking that i understand this correct? Tondel is flying to the US with a mechanic, has to rent a car/van and sleep in hotels (or a rv), has to arrange bikes and parts in the us and he is making...

My bad I thought the entry fees were still ridiculous. At least that's something they sorted and made better for everyone.

The entry fee is 300 euro. That isnt an arm and a leg and isnt stopping it. If you are from Lommel it is a 27 hour trip (as in non stop driving). It simply makes no sense for a privateer who isnt doing the full championship (since you dont do the fly-aways) to do races in Finland or Turkey...

I'm sure there would have been more GP entries if it was earlier in the season and not as a replacement, and if it wouldnt have clashed with ADAC. But still, reality is that once injuries start to add up MXGP and MX2 have issues with nr of riders. We had 25 and 26 at Great Britain. Or 22 start...

Imo the issue is not that it was a replacement but that Infront does not think about all these valid points you make, or worse not care. Same with the track selection. They don't think about the quality of the track or care about the quality of the track.

And it's so unnecessary that 50% are unwatchable GP's. A GP in Finland that is added later in the season, on a date that clashes with national championship, in the middle of summer when there was a break in the calendar, in Finland as a stand alone (so for most teams/riders at least a 24h non stop drive), with EMX250...

As much as i hate the low entries at most GPs, this one is kind of a unusual situation with this being a late replacement for Indonesia. A bunch of mx1 riders have commitments at the German Championship. Those races are scheduled on non-gp weekends, but this one clashes. It means that guys like Haavisto and Weckman miss their home...

Interesting to see if de Wolf can keep his cool and focus on a decent start and take his time to move forward. Its quite insane that he lost 85 points in 4 grand prix to Langenfelder.

Just looking at racedays/weekends misses about 200+ days a year riders in both series are hard at work. 1 mio in GPs is a paycut vs 1.5 mio in the us. Unless thisusernameisavailable think these guys do all those long days training in Lommel right now because mx is their hobby.

As long as the OEMs want the riders in the serie that has the world championship title nothing changes. The moment the OEMS say we value WSX or a combo of the national races more then the GPs then you will see the factory riders in those.
