Vialle crashed but is supposed to be ok and they reckon Simpson dislocated a shoulder.
I mean even a couple of our janky Finnish championship races were streamed in 2018 live with live HD cameras and commentators.
As for the racing, i hope the hurt riders are just banged up. Especially Simpson, Argentina is not far away...
The Shop
Monticelli
Nagl
Jasikonis
The results dont tell the story of the day, both MX1 races were really goo, and i think the event was better for Herlings not being there because on paper , there were 5 potential winners, Searle , Anstie, Jasikonis , Nagl and Simpson, and they all looked they might at some point, Surprise of the day for me was Ivo Monticelli who led Moto 2 and funished second and then easily won the Superfinal.
Great day, marred by the Ando crash, which luckily seems to have been less serious than originally feared, although he is a proper mess, from the pics on his insta..
Why not have a pay to view system? Same price as a entry ticket?
i didn't go this year, but i personally don't think it needs internet streaming or anything like that... i'd prefer they spend money to keep trying to get good talent to attend, which i think they usually manage to do
The good thing is that MX Vice has a good coverage of the race!
this way, if you want to watch the racing, you go to the race.... after all, it's in February and people don't need an excuse to stay in the warm
and again, this is not an easy place to stream..... Riola, Mantova and Ottobiano are all flat and relatively easy to put cameras in certain spots to cover (especially Mantova and Ottobiano). It's also a series so you can get lower costs because you are using equipment multiple times and thus get a better rate. I'd prefer they spend the money on getting the good riders, rather than spend it on a stream,
Either way, it's a cool event if you ever get the chance to go there and i hope they continue to make enough money to keep doing it...
Pit Row
I know alot of dirt track car races here are streamed, and the price is the same as the gate entry,
Keep it as it is, it was the biggest crowd I've seen there since the Everts/Smets/Coppins era.
Anyone know why Vlaanderen was a no show?
Also, anyone else there notice John Adamson's results? He went 14-12 in MX1 and he only scored points in one Maxxis race all last year! Fair play to him, he's clearly in shape.
I was most impressed with the young 125 riders in particular Kay de Wolf & Joel Rizzi their talent is amazing,
