Bonacorsi also spent 4 years in EMX125, he only really came good when he won the title in his 4th year on the Fantic.

Elzinga and Bonacorsi also had years to win it. I understand why they stayed, the title gets you a ride at factory yamaha. But imo they are not gp championship material

I am not sure if the focus on getting the emx250 title for Yamaha will lead to MX2 contenders. The KTM/HQV approach of moving kids up regardless of winning a title seems like a much better approach then keeping them 3+ years in emx250 to win a title

My impression as well. Felt like a situation of Jorge has a gap, its only 1 point, i'm fine. Not saying Gajser was going to win it just that i dont think he was all out. Herlings looked like he had serious speed.

Guadagnini and Samuel Nilsson are also out for MXGP and MX2 this weekend. Kind of a shame for Nilsson, his home gp and would be interested to see how he would perform, he was impressive in the spanish championship in the preseason versus good gp competition.

Well Lommel doesnt clash with the outdoors this season so any US rider that wants to give it a try could theoretically enter

Yes indeed. And i think many see a calendar that includes Turkey, Latvia and Portugal which is roughly 15.000 km and days in the van and think i won't be doing the full season anyway.

Fully agree that MXGP dropped the ball on this badly. But man these teams also have themselves to blame. They have been going to far away places for years and nobody asked up front about what the arrangements are in case of emergencies?

Yeah i did not see him as a title contender for this year at all. Give him a good start at a sand track (and obviously healthy) he could possibly fight for a win. But title contender would have shocked me.

If they had official Kawa support they would have been in green. No idea what happened. A shame, 3-4 years ago they had 3 riders in mx2 and i felt like they could develop into a team that would win multiple gp a year. It never really got better though

You can train on the track if you are a member of the club. Track was superfast in the 1st sessions (2 laps free practice followed by timed session) and i thought oh this isnt THAT bad. But once the 125s had their first race it was super rough. Nice setup btw that the WMX riders (van Drunen, Valk, vd...

Loket and France this year were terrible in terms of getting out (took hours). Arnhem they had everyone park 5 km out and come with shuttle buses. So from a spectator perspective it cant be the issue. Can't comment on the big trailers for the teams since i have never been to Hawkstone

I think it is a good move for him considering the situation. Use March and april with this team to stay in shape, and earn at a minimum something like 5k at these 3 Masters. And he will be available for the Grand Prix teams to fill in in case of injuries, which will happen.
