Van de Moosdijk, Guadagnini, Horgmo, Forato and Dankers aren't such a bad choice to fill in for all those injured riders, now are they? And because of the long journey a lot of smaller teams / privateers choose not to make the travel. If you think this is new, check the GP's of Venezuela, Brazil, Japan or Indonesia in the 80s and 90s. Same problem.
You're right about the Turkish / Greek / Indonesian / ... riders, though.
You don't watch gp's much do you?
The majority of the GP had 40 guys lined up at the start of the weekend.
I sure as f**k don't agree with Luongo's 'model' , I never have, but it's been this way for a fair few years now. To not have gathered the bastards 'model', seems a bit ignorant, on so many posters part.
Things like the various EMX series, shows how strong MX is in Europe, and, on the whole, I like them, but, I'd rather see more of those competitors going into the MX2 and MXGP series, and not be in the EMX classes. And, of course, No age limit, or Titles limit in the MX2 class. It's a World Championship - not a regional one, like EMX and US 250SX.
Limited competitors in the fly away races, late season races? Yes, understandable, as there's always injury, and budget attrition towards the end of the seasons. Plus, that bastard Luongo, gives sweet FA in travel and expenses money. Hell, go back into the archives and see how few 500GP regulars attended the Canadian and USGPs, some years, in the Carlsbad GP era.
There's the EMX Open class coming next year, so that will be interesting to see what comes of it.
Obviously in Indonesia, Russia or Turkey the gates aren't full. If the AMA did a race in another country (e.g. the UK) do you think a lot of privateers would make the trip to try and qualify?
Sorry don't agree. We have always had this in overseas and far away GP's. Example:
30 years ago, end of season 1989 125cc GP's in Argentina and Brasil we had Niclas Salzman, Eduardo Saduku, Rogierieo Noglueira, Gilberto Narezzi, Claudio Pesce and Jorge Negretti (all from brazil and argentina) score points.
Not because they were that great, but because there was only a small group of riders making the long trip (and that was in a season with only 12 GP's, travel money and start money).
We have had a bunch of GP's this season with 40 guys in MXGP and MX2. Any decent privateer can get a wildcard for these abroad races, but there simply isnt that much interest by privateers to spend a huge amount of money and finish 18-16 and score some points.
MX2 had multiple GP's with 40 in the first practice. To be honest i don't know if they actually had 40 riders at the gate.
It's been that way for Decades, at nearly all non European based GPs. You think I didn't know that? - I've followed the GPs since the 60s.
And, sometimes, 'Wildcards', do well enough to get a shot at the GPs, proper. Hell , that's how Rodney Smith got into the GPs, when he was racing in Brazil, from him impressing so much in South American GP(s). Same with a couple of Aussies, through the Broadford GPs.
But, Luongos basic 'model', is less riders. He even got put into the rules, a few years ago, a 30 rider maximum gate in 450 GPs, around the time he tried it on with the idiotic "Super Finals". Thankfully, both of those 'disappeared', rapidly . He doesn't give a flying f**k about full grids. That's patently obvious, to even the most cretinous. He sees MotoGP, WSBK, and some other major Motorsports, and, like those events, only gives thought to the Video Visuals. But, he'll take pretty much anyone's entry money, especially at flyaways, to put into his pocket.
And. it's blokes like CalimeroFan, and others that seem to constantly want to denigrate the GPs, that don't see / take in the fact that , much of the time, in the European / Brit GPs, there are more riders on the gate, than the 30 / 31 he comes out with.
In MXGP it has been a little less, but there were also at least 4 or 5 GPs with 35+ entries on Saturday. And several more with 32-34 riders. In MX2 a lot more GPs had 35+ entries.
It's not as bad as you make it sound.
But I agree, races like Indonesia, Russia, etc suck
Pit Row
To be honest imo the best thing that could happen. This is such a low turnout that YS will have to change things for 2020 and come up with a schedule that makes sense for EMX/WMX.
It is an awfull look PR wise, they spend a lot of money on the tv feeds/broadcasts to show off they have 5 riders and they miss 20k in entry feesfrom WMX and EMX 2T compared to having a full field. Budget wise a WMX/EMX rider probably can do more gp's a year if you keep them close to southwest europe.
Just scrap those far away gps for the emx/wmx serie and have local classes at those gps without the broadcast.
This is just a big shit show.
They should go back to the format what they had mid 2000 to 2012. Comeback with a MX3 class wich will get populair with the whole mxgp class rides and put the WMX, 2 strokes or EMX 125/250 next to it for more round and all in central europe
EDIT. Never mind, of course it’s a 4 stroke since it’s the world championship lol. That’s really impressive.
Did Arnoud Tonus earn the number 4 or he just selected it??
Great performance from EMX250 champ Van De Moosdijk in 7th.
That said, for oversea races, some of the riders who don't go could also get a deal with a local dealer/national importer, and just go with suspensions and some parts. I am not that old, 37, but i think it was 10 times more difficult to travel to do the world championship back in the 80's (no internet, no gps, more frontiers, more visa, more admin burden, more expensive travels, less english speaking people). Some riders also need to understand they are not faster with a graphic kit, nor a semi.
