Re: 2012 World Championships.
Did anyone else just watch that anal raping that Herlings gave everyone? Lapped the entire field but one. That was fucking ridiculous

Re: 2012 World Championships.
This guy is from another planet. His fastest lap was 6 seconds faster than Van Horebeek's lap and +9 seconds faster than the rest of the field!
I'm waiting for youthstream to upload the analysis of the race, want to see his lap times compared with the rest

Re: 2012 World Championships.
Bin there, never done that and never expected to see that. What Herlings performed was awesome. How boring that moto even looked when you see the numbers and the results. It was one of the best motos I've seen. It was impressive to see Herlings riding away. Then the mood changed a bit and for about 5min. nobody cared about the races anymore. But suddently was Herlings damn close behind Searle (to lap him). We went nuts and with we I mean the 20 000 people there in Lierop.
Everybody, except Searle fans were yelling, screamig, honking, cheering ... With Everybody I realy mean everybody, even neutral spectators who didn't moved up untill that moment.
Damn, goosebumps nearly as big as the sandbumps were.
And Jeremy Van Horebeek is my hero

Re: 2012 World Championships.
That kid is a straight up monster. The confidence he instills in him when it comes to sand is just incredible. He has earned every bit of the right to call himself the king of sand regardless of what he does on any American circuit because I garuntee not a single American could have done what he just did. Ever.
About MXoN, I honestly don't think it matters what bike they put him on. He will be battling for the lead if not already pulling away.

Re: 2012 World Championships.
To give you guys an idea ...
The track was flatten out a bit during both breaks. So the MX2 had a smoother track then the MX1, especially on the jumps.
But in Lap 15 of MX2 moto1 Herlings pulled a 2:02,5 and in the last lap (to catch Anstie) he did a 2:04,0
Cairoli his fastest laptime was in lap 4, moto1. A 2:02,0. His 2nd fastest laptime in that moto was 2:05,3.
So you can say that Herlings would have battled with Cairoli for the entire moto. But Herlings was able to go 100% for the full 35+2. While Cairoli looks like he couldn't or he just rode smarter.

Re: 2012 World Championships.
I think the only competition for Herlings could be Cairoli or Roczen, but seeing the laptimes of today, just makes me doubt that we're going to see a battle.
1st moto Cairoli
1 222 Cairoli, Antonio ITA FMI KTM 40:53.149 18 0:00.000 0:00.000 2:02.037 4 51.624
2nd moto Cairoli
1 222 Cairoli, Antonio ITA FMI KTM 41:45.714 18 0:00.000 0:00.000 2:04.156 2 50.743
1st moto Herlings
1 84 Herlings, Jeffrey NED KNMV KTM 40:41.884 19 0:00.000 0:00.000 1:55.316 1 54.632
2nd moto Herlings
1 84 Herlings, Jeffrey NED KNMV KTM 39:32.414 18 0:00.000 0:00.000 1:59.603 1 52.674
Just looking at the numbers (they ride the same amount of time), will conclude that Herlings would've lapped Cairoli in the first moto.. Concluding that Herlings would have a gap of more than 1 minute to Cairoli. I know this isn't really compareable but just looking at the lap times of Herlings, he rode the 2nd moto 2,5 seconds faster than Cairoli did 1st moto.. Just insane. Maybe Roczen will be a thread for Herlings or Barcia? We'll see what happens!

If Herlings loses I'm going to be losing a large sum of money.

Re: 2012 World Championships.
Find friends that are to cool to think any GP rider can win against an American.
