I was just thinking about how every year, I get more interested in MXGP. It’s getting to where I follow both series with equal vestment, and that’s badass to me.
Anyway, like the title says, what are you most excited for this season?
In MX2, I hope Hunter Lawrence kicks ass on the Honda
. I want to see Prado's progress, and Covington finally put it all together as well. MXGP, I fear the 'Herlings show'. He’s just on another level; but, this year will most likely be exciting and not disappoint. Same as the past 3 seasons, there’s always close racing!!

Also really hope Cairoli can play his 'Cairoli games' with Herlings all season haha
The Shop
Desalle find some of old form...
Think Olsen n Lawrence will have plenty of races wins n possible one of these to take the title....
Hunter Lawrance looks like a new possible front runner and 64 impressed me big time at thw USMXGP. Seewer doesnt let off. Should be a good season.
MXGP
Cairoli / Herlings, I can't see KTM lose the championship with the 2 big favorites unless they are very unlucky.
Next to them, there is a lot of riders about the same "level": Febvre, Desalle, Van Horebeek, Anstie etc
MX2
I would like to see Lawrence winning it, but I can't go against Jonass. His 2017 season was just so good, only Seewer (who is known to be a consistent rider) could follow him in the points.
38 races, 14 wins, 28 top 3, 33 top 5. That's the stats for Jonass last year. Tough to beat that...
I find this weird, but Covington is not suppose to be the only american in MX2 there guys..

Cairoli vs Herling. Man it will be awesome. I think Cairoli will be better in the first part of the season. Febvre is an outsider if Cairoli or Herlings have a few bad races.
250
I think that it's wide open. I don't think that Jonass is any better this year, he will be solid and fast but he will not run away with it. Lawrence and Prado will challenge him. TKO and Covington are the outsiders. TKO needs more raw speed and Covington needs to be better on his bad days.
Then we have the EMX classes that are always good and exciting to watch!
Pit Row
When the gate drops in Argentina, you wont know who is going to win till they have won.
Im hoping Febrve will be back on it from day 1 after spending the last 2 seasons recovering from injuries.
MX2 .. don't see anyone having anything for Jonass. Olsen will be best of the rest, then its just too close to call 3-10
Looking forward to the Herlings/Cairoli battle, got AC down for the overall , Herlings has improved mentally but hasn't got the same Yoda status .
Hunter Lawrence
and as always EMX125
Prado vs Lawrence vs TKO vs Covington vs Jonas
dont see any other rider at the moment on their level ...
i think MX2 will be the most exciting with a lot of new talents knocking on Jonass door ... Lawrence and Vaessen both looked very strong pre season .
I am a bit worried the Honda of Lawrence will be too slow out of the gate.
MX2 jonas is the man but covington, olsen, prado,lawrence wont be far behind in wins.
Watching in Italy and at Hawkstone it's plain to see what's gonna be what this year.
Looking to be a really good fight and there will definitely be gloves off action, I don't see 243 or 461 giving too much stress to the KTM boys personally.
Go #100
