I went to a GP at Ernee back in the day and its a tough track in the wet. The mud is really dense and gloopy.

Kinda surprising to see 2 Czechs in EMX250 - Wagenknecht after getting injured in preseason and having his TM racing contract terminated, racing now on his bone-stock husky? Blink maybe could score some points... Rathouský still not being 100% after concussion in april, to qualify would be fine. Of course imma be watching and cheering up Marek & Mikula in EMX125s. Especially Mikula needs to avoid first turn pile up (last 4 motos basically ended in first turn) and he could maybe score top5.
Anyway gentlemen, let the racing commence.

Ernee mxon 2005 is probably my favorite race that I've been to. You can literally see the whole track from almost anywhere you stand

Still no Pootjes? Guy was out for something like 2 years, did half a qualifying race at the 1st round & hasn’t been seen since.

When not ready at all, I see no reason to line up. Jeez, just get fit first.

Cripes, "out the front door" (c/r Paul Malin) indeed. Woohoo

Toendal just pranged fairly comprehensively while in the lead.

Got back up, still in 1st, but he's bloody lucky to get back up after that one ...........

Do you know why Wagenkecht had his contact terminated?

Toendal / Toendel just gave up a fair few points to Brents lad, Elzinga. The young Norwegian ended up finishing 9th.

125s may have a bit of fun and games this moto. They were bloody big rain drops coming down at the end of the EMX250 race.

I'd be surprised if they did.

It's Outdoor Motocross, after all.

Rain seems to have eased a bit, and the track doesn't look particularly horrendous.

But, you never know.

Not much worth watching if Geerts is out of the championship. Really hope he's alright but that didn't look good at all.

I was see Mikula was 5th to the gate, great! Gets a bad start then goes down. I’m shaking my head but what a ride to 7th. If he could get a start & stay up going through the 1st turn, I reckon he could podium.

Not a good look for Seewer & Coldenhoff deciding to boycott whilst Renaux goes out.
