Seriously, I'm super stoked he had the balls to come over. It made today super exciting! Hope he comes races a series some year.

Man I would have loved to see the real ET in that race.

I hope so too!
Next week ET3 will come out swinging for sure. Eli even said his ego got the better of him 1st moto. It's good to see he learned from past mistakes and did what had to be done 2nd moto.

Definitely a ride a lot of AMA riders could learn from, not sure what they would need to change but it's pretty clear who has the overall upper hand now. Roczen and ET will and can give all those boys a run at sometime or another but no doubting they are more than capable of giving it back to them.
Just an absolutely incredible ride from Herlings, really glad he decided to race.

It's only gonna get worse for Americans when they start adding more supercross races and take away some outdoor rounds

Charging thru the pack from practically dead last to a win, like JS7 did in 03 at Budds Creek

There are only a handful that have the pure skill like he.
Herlings is one of them.

Herlings always has been a big fan of JS7 ... in his younger years he raced the 259 number for that reason

the funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it

Except the leader didn't crash. That said, Herlings flat out killed it today

I'm very impressed with his riding today, really wish he would come here and race. Get that world title next year then come here.

It was an impressive ride. What it really proved to me though, is that Cairoli is the FMOTP....

Cairoli isn't faster than herlings. He may have a huge points lead but that's because herlings broke his hand

Are you sure about the number thing ? 
Pretty sure i've seen Herlings ride with 84 ever since he was on Suzuki 85's in the dutch national series. Maybye Coldenhoff ? He still rides 259

Anyway awesome day! Legendary preformance by Herlings. Really wish we'd see guys from both series compete versus eachother more often the hype for this stuff is awesome.

Results vary. Cairoli torched Herlings at Lombardia. (Yeah yeah, it was nasty hot; Herlings is nine years younger too.)
It helps that cairol starts too 3 every moto and herlings has been terrible off the line on all those one lined GP tracks. He was probably loving how open the track was today
