Great race. Glad I watched. The Pauls Jonass snooze fest gets old.

Got completely taken out by Jonass. He’s got one coming for him I think.

Not sure what happened, but it looked like Jacobi got held up (in neutral or something) becauce it made no sense to collide like that in that corner

His last lap pass on Prado was great. I think this is the first non orange bike to win a moto also.

Well thats about 50% true isnt it? A Husky is pretty much a KTM painted white so id assume the win still kept it in the family...Pit was still stoked i bet.

One more year but he is not sure about his future(23 year is that last year you can race MX2). He mentioned that a week ago. He could move to USA next year.

I would guess he will stay for one more year and then move to the US Husqvarna 250 team.

Pretty sure Vlaanderen went down, and Jacobi had to avoid, which held him up and Jonass just arrived and tried to make the pass happen. Jacobi has really made steps this year, goes to show that work works... Covington can do this on any weekend, but when he has bad days , he really does, but he applied pressure on Prado and got the reward for it.

Covington is one of the most inconsistent riders out there. Which really sucks because I'm such a huge fan. If he can get a start he can run with any of those guys. But if he doesn't get a good start it's almost like he just settles in. I hope he can pick up a little more aggression when he starts outside the top 5.

I’ll agree with the Jacobi momentum, Covington has had flashes of brilliance in the past, good ride though. Keep it up.
