"Jeffrey Herlings of the Red Bull Teka KTM Factory who currently sits in second position in the World Championship MX2 Series will not compete in the Outdoor National in Southwick. Herlings has still a chance to become World Champion so the team and Jeffrey decided to concentrate on the GP's here in Europe."

Smart thing to do.
But he'll be there one day and then he can smoke the field.

nope we'll deny him entry into any event and show that we're terrified of a teen that doesn't have any championships yet. GTFOH

Smart move. He doesn't need to be doing any races other than the GPs right now. It was a stupid thing on his part to consider it.

X 2. The 250 class is being won by GP riders. The real question is when are the americans going to show up to lead their own series?

He wants to, KTM does not.

Work out who is calling the shots.

Watch GP's of Lommel/Lierop, than decide what is a sandbox and what is hard pack with some dust on top.

Can you imagine kawasaki or Suzuki allowing RV or RD to race a GP towards the end of the year with the title on the line? I dont think so!

No, they are both ama riders, they live in the usa, and have been here for years. They are more domestic than most on welfare in this country.

That's absolutely right. If anything good can come from, God please let it be that people don't talk shit about any rider who doesn't do a race in the "other" series. Their employers set those priorities before anything else.

Is everts or herlings the best 'real' sand rider in the world? Because a guy who rides the hardpack here with a bit of sand on top went to everts backyard and proceded to romp. If you were to ride the 'wick', you would think it be sand alright. Oh, and the ama riders, who are all domesticated by the time they reach the top, will kick ass like always.

Im sorry. He did not race the GP's. He was a Canadian National racer. Which sounds worse for the US guys trying to beat him actually.
