I love Lommel, really want to go shoot and experience this race for myself next year...

Been a little busy with 450 Shootout prep this week so I just wrapped up the captions but Pit Bits from the MXGP of Belgium is pretty good, the action shots that Jeffro got are insane plus a good splash of tech and pit stuff.

Thanks Michael, been a fun GP.
BTW, that's Marshal Weltin going down, not Adam Sterry. Wink

Great pictures.
Did someone replace Jasikonis at this GP? Since his bike is in the pictures but i don't recall him racing (might be mistaken though).

While you’re at it,
Anstie is not chasing Cairoli and Herlings.
It’s Cairoli and Coldenhoff. Herlings was already around the corner and gone. Laughing

It would be interesting to hear / read about why Toni prefers his 'Frankenbike' /'FrankenEngine' set up.

Often, at the end of the season, a few Euro / Brit mags get to test a lot of the GP Bikes. Hopefully, they might get to ride both Herling's and Cairoli's Bikes and enlighten us.

Most kudos go to Dave Bulmer for the weekly MXGP photography.
I'm just helping him out occasionally. Cool

Magazines got to test their bikes after 2017 season. The guy that tested for the Finnish mag OffroadPro said that Herlings and Cairolis bikes were completely different, not even close.
