Is Cooper riding with Anderson & Osbourne now? I’ve seen Cooper hanging around with Henri Jacobi at the track, what’s the story there ?

I think it’s fair to say that a podium is the decent result we are talking about. Tongue

We’ll have to see how that goes for you next weekend chief

Why do some of you think the Netherlands deserves to win the MXDN’s? IMO, nobody deserves it....they earn it. Why do they deserve it more than Italy?....and all the condescending advice from the amateurs in here cracks me up....Somebody should tell the Americans to ride a gear higher everywhere, stand up and go faster in the corners!....like all the Euros do. I hope Team Fried reads Vital...Dry
Is Jacobi on a Yamaha 250?...my guess is Coop is hanging with him searching for a bike set-up.

Jacobi rides Kawasaki and he's out injured so isn't riding for Team Germany.

And expectations are a little lower, so any decent result is going to be a win in our books....

Assen also brings a little risk for everyone, motors sometimes don't make it, etc. So much fun leading up to the event this year and Team Fried has only made it that much better.

Team Netherlands are heavy favourites.

These are the podium contenders:

Team USA
Anderson - 4th in 450
Osbourne - 5th in 450
Cooper - 3rd in 250

Team France
Paulin - 4th in MXGP
Tixier - 16th in MXGP
Renaux - 7th in MX2

Team Belgium
Van Horebeek - 8th in MXGP
Strijbos - 22nd in MXGP
Geerts - 3rd in MX2

Team Italy and Team GB have a slim chance.

So, I totally expect a Team USA podium. 3rd at worst, win at best! This is one of the weakest MXdN line-ups in years!

Jacobi rides for F&H Kawasaki. I would bet that F&H were also at Veldhoven on the same day and Jacobi was just there watching, went over for a chat with Cooper. I’d be surprised if it wasn’t more than that

Herlings and Cooper
It's impossible to tell a whole lot from such a short video, but JCoop is definitely hauling some major ass in this clip. Flowing corners very well, and getting wicked drive down the straightaways.
I'm sure Herlings passed him some time soon after the video ends, and I'm not gonna pretend to know how hard Herlings was pushing, but Cooper is for sure ripping and looks really good on this track at least.jj

Personally, I think JA and ZO will have to let JH84 and GC259 go and get in the mix with Prado, Van Horebeek, Simpson, Paulin, Jonass etc. These guys are seriously fast and experienced in sand and will likely give them a run for their money. Wish USA all the best and I know their fighting spirit always gives them something extra, but saying they’ll be right behind Herlings is nothing less than naive.

Nice, thanks for posting. Must be a great time to be a moto fan in NLD with all of the teams spread out all over. Hopefully you guys have been able to take some well timed "sick days" to make it out to the tracks. My wrists hurt though watching that video. Those are some huge jumps considering some of those landings are 6 inches tall.

This weekend there's a beachrace in Loon-Plage (France). There are rumours the American squad will line up along these entries:

- Jeffrey Herlings
- Tom Koch
- Jeffrey Dewulf
- Petar Petrov
- Tom Guyon
- Steve Ramon
- Cédric Soubeyras
- Camille Chapelière
- Daymond Martens
- Stéphane Watel
- Florian Miot
- Mathéo Miot
- Todd Kellett
- Jérémy Hauquier
- Richard Fura
That would be the smartest thing they could possibly do. I hope it happens.

GFY Coldenhoff is the one who started the season injured, after a very heavy crash where he ended up with a serious backinjury.
The last GP's he has been beating the world champ Gajser, who is top fit and guys like Paulin, Seewer and so on. How the the hell is that winning because of injuries?

Because IF Herlings and Cairoli were on the same level as 2018, he would'nt have won a gp. And Gasjer would'nt have won the title. To me 2018 is still an epic season where Cairoli and Herlings showed that if they are fully fit, there are the best by far...

Don't throw all the riders under the bus to make your point... Keep in mind... if they attack your favorite rider sometimes it's wiser not to respond because otherwise you only bump the topic and get even more BS... just ignore it

Agree with herlings. Not with Cairoli. Gajser digged himself out of a points hole and applied pressure every week. Until Tony made the crucial mistakes first in Russia then in Latvia

Team Fried:

16 YouTube uploads during the Nationals = 170k views.
4 YouTube uploads pre-MXdN in Europe = 270k views.

Not bad for a race that doesn't matter...
Team fried fans during outdoor motocross = 20-30% of all American motocross fans.

Team friend fans during MXON prep = 90% of all American motocross fans.

I don't know if people here are also boxing fans, but Team USA are coming across like Andy Ruiz in the Joshua fight. Friendly, disarming, likeable, underdogs... If they start taking photos of themselves with the Chamberlain Trophy at the pre-race press conference people need to be worried!

Touching or posing with the trophy before the race / game / competition brings bad luck Wink
