MXGP

HERLINGS AND UDDEVALLA

With a points lead of 104 points heading into the MXGP of Sweden this weekend, Honda HRC Petronas factory rider, Jeffrey Herlings must feel very confident of success at the Uddevalla circuit. He does have two previous wins there, although those wins are 12 and 13 years ago, when he raced the MX2 class.

Those wins in 2013 and 2014 were in the middle of his 250-class domination, where he often won most of the GPs in those seasons, although injuries did cost him at times. He obviously lost the 2014 MX2 championship to Jordi Tixier, after breaking his femur.

Herlings scored that second win at Uddevalla in 2014, beating Tixier and Tim Gajser, the two men who would take his injury riddled championships in 2014 and 2015. The win in 2014 meant a lot to him, leaving Sweden that year with 135-point lead over Tixier in the championship battle.

“We basically did what we had to do and that’s to win both motos and make the points gap bigger to the second place. That weekend was something I’m proud of. I won on Saturday and twice on Sunday and I had a lot of fun on the bike.”

While Herlings has those two previously mentioned wins, his results at this circuit are actually, not up to his normally high standards, with injury or returning from injury often the reason for no victories at Uddevalla since 2014.

His first appearance at the circuit in 2010, he finished second, then second again in 2011 and 2012, before winning in 2013 and 2014. In 2015 he was 7th, then MXGP didn’t race there again until 2017, where he finished 10th overall, then in 2019, where finished 12th (coming back from injury), returning in 2023 with a fourth place overall, before finishing third and second in 2024 and 2025. Momentum at Uddevalla is on his side.

Herlings second place last year might not have been a victory, but due to coming back from injury means he wasn’t completely up for the task at hand. Two times second to Kawasaki factory rider, Romain Febvre, in the races and second overall behind the legendary Frenchman, meant he was at least close to the top step of the podium.

“Three 2nds! In the last race I felt quite close and was really pushing but I ran out of tear-offs. I didn’t have any more for the leader. 2-2 for 2nd overall is not bad for being on the bike for only two and a half weeks. My physical condition is getting better and better.”

So now, fully fit and with a 104-point lead in the MXGP championship points, Herlings will like to extend his series lead, but the main goal is consistent results and head to Arnhem a week later with a strong chance of getting even closer, to claiming his sixth world title.

His memories of that 135-point lead in 2014 might not be on his mind, but he knows, the most important thing this coming weekend, is to leave the circuit healthy and with a swag of points, as his confidence will grow heading into Arnhem, Turkey, China and Australia.

TRIUMPH FACTORY RACING’S GUILLEM FARRES STEPS UP TO THE MXGP CLASS FOR 2027 AND BEYOND

Triumph Factory Racing is excited to announce that Guillem Farres will compete in the MXGP class in 2027, as Triumph makes its first official factory entry into the premier category. The current FIM MX2 Motocross World Championship leader has signed a new three-year agreement with the team and will race the TF 450-X alongside Mikkel Haarup. Farres’ teammate Camden Mc Lellan will remain with the team to compete in MX2 in 2027.

Farres has played an integral role in Triumph's rapidly developing motocross programme since joining the team ahead of the 2025 season. After establishing himself as a regular frontrunner aboard the TF 250-X, the Spaniard has taken another significant step forward in 2026. With five rounds remaining in the 2026 MX2 World Championship, he comfortably leads the series following an exceptional campaign that includes five Grand Prix victories and a further five overall podium results.

Guillem’s performances this season have underlined his speed, consistency, and versatility across a wide variety of circuits and conditions. Together with the strong relationship he has developed with Triumph Factory Racing, Farres' continued progression makes the move into MXGP a natural next step as both rider and manufacturer embark on an exciting new chapter.

For Triumph, the 2027 season will mark another significant milestone in its global racing programme. Having successfully established the TF 250-X in MX2 competition, Triumph Factory Racing will officially expand into the premier MXGP category for the first time with the TF 450-X.

Joining Farres in MXGP will be Mikkel Haarup, creating a two-rider line-up for Triumph in the premier class. The Dane has already played an important role in the development of Triumph's motocross racing programme in both MX2 and AMA Pro Motocross, and will bring valuable experience to the team for its first season in the MXGP class.

Camden Mc Lellan will continue with Triumph Factory Racing in the MX2 World Championship for 2027. The South African has established himself as one of the leading riders in the category and, together with Farres, has contributed to a hugely successful 2026 campaign for the team.

With Farres, Haarup, and Mc Lellan confirmed, the team will field a three-rider line-up across the two classes in 2027 as the manufacturer enters the next phase of its FIM Motocross World Championship programme.

Before their attention turns fully to 2027, Farres and McLellan remain firmly focused on the current MX2 World Championship campaign. With Farres leading the standings and McLellan third, the fight for further success with the TF 250-X continues with rounds in Sweden, the Netherlands, Turkiye, China, and Australia completing the 2026 season.

 

Guillem Farres

“Staying with Triumph means a lot to me and was always my priority. This is where I started my professional career in Europe after racing in America, and since then the team has become like a family to me. I feel at home here, so I'm incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to continue with everyone for the next three years. To be part of Triumph's first factory team in the MXGP class is a dream come true and a real privilege. At the same time, I know it's going to be a big challenge and there will be a lot of work involved. But I have complete trust in the people around me. We know each other really well, they understand how I work, and we've already shown together what we can achieve with the 250. That gives me a lot of confidence that we can get to where we want to be with the 450 as well. I've already had the chance to ride the 450 a little and really enjoyed it, so I'm excited to start working with the bike properly. I'm also really happy to continue alongside Camden, as we have a great relationship and do a lot of our training together. I've got to know Mikkel a little as well, and I think having the three of us together will be really positive because we can all learn from and push each other. For me, this team is about much more than just racing. From the mechanics and trainers to everyone behind the scenes, we all care about each other and work towards the same goal. That's what makes our relationship so strong, and I'm really looking forward to taking this next step together.”

 

Vincent Bereni – Triumph Factory Racing Team Manager

“We are very pleased to have Guillem with us for the next three years. We know he was very keen to stay with the team and continue making history with Triumph. We believe in him, and he believes in us, and that's an important part of any relationship when you want to achieve great things together. It goes without saying that Guillem's results have been incredible this year, and we see a lot of potential in him as we step into the MXGP category with the TF 450-X. Our team is like a family. Everyone knows their role and works extremely hard together, and our riders also have great relationships with each other, which is another important dynamic with a project like this. We still have work to do this year and we remain completely focused on the job at hand, but we have a solid plan in place as we move towards 2027.”

 

Thierry Chizat-Suzzoni – MXGP & MX2 Team Owner, Triumph Factory Racing

“We are delighted to be able to officially announce Guillem’s contract with Triumph for the coming years. He has developed significantly over the last two years alongside the whole team, and his dedication, team spirit and progress make him one of the best riders in the championship.

It is with great confidence that the Triumph team will be able to continue to develop and achieve the best possible results in the MXGP category. We would like to thank Mr. Bloor and everyone at Triumph who are working towards our collective goals.”

 

Ian Kimber – Head of Global Racing Programmes, Triumph Motorcycles

“Today is a really important day for Triumph Factory Racing. It was special to welcome Guillem and Thierry to the home of Triumph here at the factory in Hinckley to extend Guillem's contract into MXGP for a further three years, and we couldn't be prouder. The team and Guillem have done an incredible job with the TF 250-X, achieving more than we could have dreamed of in only three years of MX2 competition. Not only that, but Guillem is a fantastic ambassador for Triumph and the sport, plus he’s a great person to work with. He and Camden work extremely well together, even in the toughest moments, and that means an awful lot. We've needed that cohesion within the team to collectively move our project forward and the results speak for themselves. We knew Guillem was a talented rider from the start, and week after week he's demonstrating his ability across different tracks, conditions, and scenarios, often under intense pressure. We really believe his talent, approach, work ethic, and attitude will pay dividends as we step into MXGP with the TF 450-X – a whole new class and battlefield for Triumph. To have a 2027 line-up of Guillem, Mikkel, and Camden – three riders we've nurtured as our project has grown – is something we're incredibly excited about. There's still some important work to do this season, but we're also really looking forward to what lies ahead in 2027.”

TIME FOR THE VIKINGS TO ROAR AT THE MXGP OF SWEDEN!

Uddevalla (Sweden) – 12th August 2026 – The epic rocky hillsides of the Glimminge Motorstadion near the town of Uddevalla in Sweden will rock to the sound of Viking-hatted Motocross fans this weekend, as round 15 of the 2026 FIM Motocross World Championships takes place in the Västra Götaland County. It’s time for the crazy Nordic fans to make some noise at the MXGP of Sweden!

The only Scandinavian stop of the tour sees the final quarter of this wild season get underway, and it will be the 28th World Championship Motocross event to rattle around the tight but steeps slopes of the Glimminge circuit.  It’s easy to forget that Sweden dominated the early years of MXGP racing, with eight of the first nine world titles being claimed by riders from this country, and the first world-level GP here in 1958 saw a Swedish podium sweep for Sten Lundin, on a Swedish Monark machine to boot, ahead of the Matchless-mounted duo of Raymond Sigvarsson and Gunnar Johansson.

Sadly for the local fans, only Bill Nilsson, in 1961, has matched that home success at Uddevalla since then, with multi-champions Stefan Everts and Antonio Cairoli setting the record of six GP wins each at this venue.  The most successful active rider here is current Venrooy KTM Racing pilot Jeremy Seewer, having taken back-to-back MXGP victories in 2022 & ’23, after his MX2 success in 2017.

The 2026 MXGP title chase is being firmly led by Jeffrey Herlings, as the Dutch legend has racked up seven GP wins this season on his new Honda HRC Petronas steed, and leads defending World Champion, and last year’s Uddevalla winner for Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP, Romain Febvre, by 104 points after his third consecutive victory at Lommel. Former red plate holder Lucas Coenen is third now for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing, five points behind Febvre and working to be fit again for this weekend after injuries have kept him from scoring in the last three GPs.

MX2 is being led by the Spaniard Guillem Farres, who put in the biggest win streak of the year before the MXGP of Flanders, and the Triumph Racing Factory Team are looking for their first world title with a 47-point lead over Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Sacha Coenen.

Farres’ Triumph Racing Factory Team wingman Camden McLellan moved up into third in the standings with a perfect weekend at Lommel, and he is only 13 behind the teenage Belgian as the men in black push for a Championship 1-2!  None of the top three men have seen an Uddevalla GP podium, however, while defending World Champion Simon Längenfelder has never finished off of it, so the German is hoping to capitalise on that experience and bridge his own ten-point gap to McLellan.

 

The EMX250 European Championship also enters its final quarter with round ten, and series leader Francisco Garcia is hoping to return strongly from injury to defend his 74-point lead for BUD Racing Kawasaki. Team SixtySeven Husqvarna Racing’s Nikolaj Skovbjerg is now second after winning at Lommel, and the Dane will enjoy the support at his most local round!  Garcia’s teammate Jake Cannon had a rough day in the Flemish sand and is now twenty points further back in third.

The EMX125 European Champonship Presented by FMF Racing returns after nearly a month away for its penultimate round, and the title could be clinched this weekend by new red plate holder Ricardo Bauer, who holds a 31-point lead over his Norman KTM Factory Rookies teammate Moritz Ernecker.  Ernecker is still recovering from his leg injuries that were sustained at the World Junior Championships, and French kid Sleny Goyer, third for Yamaha Europe Monster Energy MJC, is 61 behind Bauer coming into Uddevalla.  So if the tall Austrian can keep the gap to over 50 points, then the title will be confirmed! Denmark’s Bertram Thorius is fourth in the series for Fantic Factory Racing EMX and hoping for some Scandinavian support in the absence of any Swedish front runners, although 17 local riders are among the massive 78-strong entry list this weekend!  It’s a good job Sweden has one of the biggest Paddocks of the year!

Last year’s event was made memorable by the efforts of Isak Gifting, who led with just half a lap to go in MXGP, and he returns for JK Racing Yamaha to build up the hopes and the atmosphere again!  His compatriot Alve Callemo took a fine eighth overall in MX2 at Lommel for Young Motion Powered by Resa, so he will have high hopes of home success in EMX250 this weekend as well!  Everything is set to produce some fantastic action beneath the cliffsides! 

 


Jeffrey Herlings comes to the Uddevalla circuit on an amazing three-GP winning streak, but the Swedish venue is one of the few that has never seen a Herlings victory in the MXGP class. He took two straight MX2 wins here in 2013 & ’14, but since then only Qualifying Race chequered flags in 2017 & ’19 have come his way, with not even a Sunday race win to his name here in the premiere class.  If he were to break that baffling run, it would give him his first four-GP win streak since his stellar 2018 title season. “The Bullet” has no real need to push for it with such a healthy Championship lead, so the door might be open for others to capitalise on his possible caution.  

Febvre in particular will be keen to break his own barren run, that of no GP victories since this round 12 months ago.  His decisive 1-1-1 weekend in 2025 was a major factor in deciding the Championship in his favour, and was his first victory here since his 2015 title season, when he went 1-1 on the Sunday. He has taken at least one top three race finish in the last eight of his ten visits to Uddevalla, so it’s a fair bet that the Frenchman will be up the sharp end again.

Lucas Coenen had a rough GP here last year, only managing eighth overall on a day that really hit his own title run in MXGP.  He went 1-1 here in MX2 in 2024, however, and even took an EMX250 race win back in 2022.  The biggest question, of course, is whether or not he will be able to line up to try and hack back the 109-point deficit he now has between himself and Herlings.

A lonely fourth in the series is Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP’s Tim Gajser, who has rarely been off the podium at this venue, although a sole Qualifying win in 2024, a Sunday race win in 2019, and his most recent GP win here in 2017, means that a return to the top step would be a surprise. He also took MX2 victory in his first title season of 2015, as well as a 1-1 EMX125 weekend in 2012.  The Slovenian will never stop chasing, and with good starts he will be a threat.

The battle for fifth in the series is the closest in the higher reaches of the table.  Red Bull KTM Factory Racing pilot Andrea Adamo took the place after top six results from each of the last three GPs, although Ruben Fernandez has been there in each of the last five events, so the Honda HRC Petronas ace is only four points behind the Italian in an entertaining side plot! Add in Maxime Renaux, who is only another 21 further back for Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP, and you have three hard chargers going for that spot!  Of the three, Adamo has the best Uddevalla record with three MX2 race wins here, although the Frenchman took one in MXGP in 2022. Keep an eye out if any of them get close to each other this weekend!

Honda HRC Petronas’ Tom Vialle has returned to the status of podium contender in recent events, and he took his first ever career GP victory at Uddevalla in 2019, as well as a race win in 2022.  The Frenchman’s starting prowess will be a strong factor if he can fight for the Holeshot again this weekend! He is also only 16 points back from Renaux, while Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Kay de Wolf is in a lonely ninth position in the table, and hoping to stay fit for his home GP a week later.  He has tasted Qualifying Race success in MX2 here two years ago, but second overall to Simon Längenfelder last season remains his only Swedish podium visit.

Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP’s Pauls Jonass and Red Bull Ducati Factory MX Team rider Calvin Vlaanderen are the next two in the Championship, and both are returning to action at Uddevalla. The Latvian took an MXGP podium here at the first time of asking in 2019, while Vlaanderen achieved that last year, as well as taking an MX2 race win in 2019, so the battle at the edge of the top ten could get interesting.

MRT Racing Team Beta rider Jago Geerts won an MX2 GP here in 2022, and he has been finding the top ten recently, so could be a force again.  Jeremy Seewer, however, returns to the only circuit where he won more than a single GP, and with results like his sixth overall at Foxhills, the Swiss veteran could be a real surprise package at a place where he is bound to be feeling good!

Of course, all eyes will be on home hero Isak Gifting, who nearly caused an avalanche from the cliffs with his dynamic passes to take the lead on the final lap of MXGP last year! A month into his return from injury, the Swede has been starting well and with the energy of the crowd pulsing through him, who knows what 2026 will bring?!

The MXGP class is perhaps more unpredictable this weekend that at any other GP, so make sure you tune in to catch the action!

MX2 Start Uddevalla 2025

Guillem Farres’ four-GP winning streak came to an end in the sand of Lommel, but he still made ground on Sacha Coenen in the Championship, and 47 points is a nice buffer for him to work with. Neither of the two leaders have fared brilliantly at Uddevalla before, however, with the Spaniard only ninth last year, and the Belgian fourth overall with 2-7 finishes.

Camden McLellan took Triumph’s seventh victory of the season last time out, completed a third 1-2 of the 2026 season for the team, but he also has had little success here, his best GP coming back in 2023 with fifth overall, a year after taking third overall in EMX250.  It’s the second Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rider Simon Längenfelder who will be the happiest to see the grey clay of Sweden on Saturday morning, as he has finished either first or third overall in each of his four GPs at the circuit, and even took second overall in the 2019 EMX125 round! It’s one of just three venues where he has won overall more than once, the others being Matterley Basin and Frauenfeld. With ten points to catch up to McLellan, the German will be keen to continue this trend!
 

Liam Everts has turned 22 years old since the last GP and the Belgian finished second overall behind Längenfelder in 2023, but since then has not caught fire here. In a lonely fifth in the Championship, the Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing rider will look to his last hardpack outing at Loket, when he won race two, for confidence towards seeking his first GP win of the year.

The Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2 teammates and brothers Janis and Karlis Reisulis are next up in the Championship, as Janis makes his GP debut at a circuit where he has got to the podium after all three of his EMX appearances here.  An EMX125 1-1 in 2023 was a particular highlight, but 2-2 in EMX250 last year got him third overall, and he is likely to be a force again, while Karlis has nothing like that record here, and will be hoping to get some tips from his younger sibling!

Valerio Lata has finally moved up to eighth in the Championship, and the Honda HRC Petronas rider is starting his second GP here after finishing 11th last year and winning the second EMX250 race in 2024. The rider who finished third overall behind him that day, Mathis Valin, is now back in ninth for Kawasaki Racing Team MX2 and still uncertain of returning from his Portugal injuries.

Julius Mikula was 12th overall behind Lata in Sweden last year, but the Osička Racing KTM   man has had a stirring 2026 season and will surely be eyeing up the top five!

With five Swedish wildcards being led by Triumph rider Nike Korsbeck, the local fans will have riders to cheer for, but this weekend’s MX2 GP could be as wide open as ever and should deliver some fantastic racing!

The MXGP of Sweden will get you wafting blue and yellow smoke from your face as it oozes through the TV screen, so let the atmosphere pull you in and enjoy this classic MXGP venue as the final quarter of the season begins in earnest!

DUTCH CONTINGENT GATHERS IN ARNHEM AHEAD OF THE MXGP OF THE NETHERLANDS

The Dutch riders set for Arnhem on 22-23 August gathered at the circuit for a practice day and press meeting, with the MXGP points leader among them.

Jeffrey Herlings had told the paddock in Lommel that a scheduled test with Honda would keep him away from the pre-event day in Arnhem. The Dutchman had other ideas. Aware of what the home Grand Prix means and of his standing in Dutch motocross, he persuaded the team to push the test back, and turned up anyway.

He did not simply attend, either. Herlings was on track for an hour before the official practice session even opened. Nothing was disclosed about the testing programme, though the presence of a Twin Air representative suggested work on the air filter system.

"I will go for the win in Arnhem"

Herlings arrives at his home round with a 104-point championship lead and five races remaining, a margin that would tempt most riders to manage the situation. He has no intention of doing so.

"The safest is to ride with the speed I am used to," he said. "That means that I will go for the win in Arnhem."

Reflecting on a season that has already delivered more than he expected, Herlings explained: "I respected my contract with KTM, which meant that I could not ride the Honda before January. I started with a standard Honda, followed by the HRC Honda. A lot of effort has been done. My win in the first GP came as a surprise for me. Then Lucas Coenen got stronger and stronger and I had a few DNFs. Lucas is sidelined now, and I know from my own experience how that feels."

He goes into the weekend as the clear favourite at a circuit he won at last year.

     

MXGP: Coldenhoff will race his home Grand Prix, Van de Moosdijk after a career best

Glenn Coldenhoff finished third in MXGP in 2025 on the factory Fantic, but the move he wanted for this season did not materialise. He is instead racing for Yamaha in the Brazilian championship.

Third in Arnhem a year ago, he is realistic about what a near-standard machine can deliver against the world championship field. "I ride on a near standard Yamaha," he said. "Good starts will be really important to get a good position early in the race. I am aiming for finishing twice in the top ten."

Roan van de Moosdijk, contesting a limited programme with the German Kosak team, rode well at both Loket and Lommel and comes to Arnhem hunting the best Grand Prix result of his career.

MX2: Karssemakers targets the top five

Kay Karssemakers has been a regular around tenth place this season and left Lommel empty-handed after two DNFs. Arnhem is his chance to reset, and he is aiming higher: a top-five finish.

WMX: the Dutch stronghold

Nowhere is the Dutch presence stronger than in WMX. Two-time world champion Lotte van Drunen has had a difficult run of luck and is out of this year's title fight, but Arnhem carries a particular weight for her after losing out to Daniela Guillen on home soil last season. The home Grand Prix is the one result that satisfies her, and she wants to turn last year's disappointment around.

Shana van der Vlist is the leading Dutch rider in the standings in fourth and reached the podium in Germany. She is looking for a repeat in Arnhem, with a strong home result also key to attracting the backing she needs for the long trip to Australia.

Lynn Valk broke her leg at Arnhem twelve months ago and, still restricted in her movement, opted for surgery to have the screws removed, which cost her the Foxhills round. She returns aiming for the podium. Danee Gelissen, who wrapped up the European title this year by winning almost every race, is targeting the top five.

EMX250

Gyan Doensen and Dani Heitink both impressed at Lommel and arrive in Arnhem expecting to fight for the podium.

Who was there

The day was attended by Jeffrey Herlings, Glenn Coldenhoff and Roan van de Moosdijk (MXGP), Kay Karssemakers (MX2), Lotte van Drunen, Shana van der Vlist, Lynn Valk and Danee Gelissen (WMX), and Gyan Doensen and Dani Heitink (EMX250).

Kay de Wolf was unable to attend, with a team travelling from Austria to run him on a prototype of the 2028 Husqvarna, while Scott Smulders had commitments with his German team.

CALVIN VLAANDEREN JOINS HONDA MOTOBLOUZ SR MOTUL TEAM

Honda Motoblouz SR Motul Team officially announce that Calvin Vlaanderen will join the team for next season.

A multiple World Championship race winner, two-time Grand Prix winner, and FIM Motocross of Nations champion, Calvin Vlaanderen is a highly experienced rider who has worked his way to the top since his first laps in his native South Africa. Since arriving in Europe, he has steadily progressed through the ranks, racing for several factory teams, including HRC. Over the past four seasons, he has consistently finished inside the world's top seven, standing on the MXGP podium seven times in the sport's premier class.

For the Honda Motoblouz SR Motul Team, which has been reduced to a single rider following Thibault Bénistant's injury, the signing of Calvin Vlaanderen brings renewed optimism for the future. From the very first discussions, Calvin made no secret of his enthusiasm about joining the team, which now benefits from increased support from Honda and HRC. Having celebrated his 30th birthday in June, Calvin will bring both his enthusiasm and his wealth of experience to help the team reach the next level.

Calvin Vlaanderen: "I’m really excited to join the team! I’ve followed their progress over the past few years, and I’m looking forward to riding a Honda again. It’s a big step for me, and I can’t wait to start working with everyone! I’ve gained a lot of experience, having raced both as a privateer and with several factory teams. I know what it takes to compete at the highest level, and I’ll use that experience to help both myself and the team continue improving and, hopefully, fight for top-five finishes and podiums."

Josse Sallefranque: "Calvin has a huge amount of experience, and in the MXGP class, as we can see with riders like Romain Febvre and Jeffrey Herlings, you either need a lot of experience or be an exceptional talent like Lucas Coenen to succeed. After a difficult year for us following the injury to Thibault, who was our young star, we had to bounce back. Throughout our discussions with riders capable of competing in the top ten, Calvin’s name kept coming up. He quickly shared our vision, and we were able to find solutions that made it possible for him to join us. Honda and HRC are fully behind us, as are our sponsors, without whom none of this would be possible. Bringing in a rider like Calvin should allow us to take another step forward in what is now an incredibly competitive MXGP class."

HERLINGS AND MC LELLAN CELEBRATE PERFECT WEEKENDS AT THE MXGP OF FLANDERS!

LOMMEL (Flanders, Belgium), 2nd August 2026 – In front of an epic, record crowd of over 40,000 fans that packed around the Stedelijk Motocrossterrain Lommel circuit, the MXGP elite battled with one of the most physically demanding tracks on the planet under punishing hot sunshine, and put on a fantastic display of racing for the 14th round of the FIM Motocross World Championships, the MXGP of Flanders!

It was a case of the expected favourites delivering what was expected, and in MXGP that meant the Championship leader, Jeffrey Herlings, crushing all competition on his way to completing a second perfect weekend in a row for Honda HRC Petronas, tightening his grip on the series into a 104-point lead with five rounds to go! He also brought his record win tally up to an unbelievable 120 GP wins in the process!

Second place overall went to Kay de Wolf, the Dutchman having recently signed a contract extension for another three years with Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing! Tim Gajser enjoyed good starts and toughed it out to take third overall for Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP.

In MX2, despite his red-plate-holding teammate being on a four-GP winning streak coming in, the favourite was undoubtably Triumph Racing Factory Team rider Camden McLellan, and the South African well and truly delivered to score his first ever 1-1-1 weekend for his second career GP win.  Championship leader Guillem Farres fought hard to make it the third 1-2 of the year for the Triumph Racing Factory Team, while defending World Champion Simon Längenfelder put in a solid day in the sand to take third overall for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing!

Every single rider out there today deserves immense congratulations for even taking on the challenge of “Lommelwood” in the hot summer sun and making it through the day. The atmosphere was fantastic and the fans well and truly made their presence felt!

True to form, Jeffrey Herlings was once again top of the timesheets in morning Warm-Up, a clear 3.6 seconds ahead of Tim Gajser and Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP’s #1 plate holder Romain Febvre. Andrea Bonacorsi showed some promise on his return to action for Red Bull Ducati Factory MXGP Team, with fourth in the session ahead of the JK Racing Yamaha of Isak Gifting.

Former red plate holder and Belgian hope Lucas Coenen had already withdrawn from the racing after Saturday’s Free Practice, and the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing ace will work on his health issues in the first weekend off since his crash in the USA, in an aim to be in action for the next round in Sweden.

Meanwhile, running with the red plate this weekend, for the first time since the Saturday of the MXGP of Andalucia in March, Herlings blazed towards his fifth Fox Holeshot Award of the season to put all of his competitors at a disadvantage from the very start! Andrea Adamo was initially second for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing, although he was instantly passed by Gajser into the third corner, and Kay de Wolf worked around the outside of the Italian to claim third before Pit Lane towards the end of the first full lap!

The second Honda HRC Petronas machine of Tom Vialle also fired past Adamo on the second lap, and Febvre was next along! Behind them was Vialle’s teammate Ruben Fernandez, the second Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP of Maxime Renaux, Gifting, and the KTM Kosak of Roan van de Moosdijk.

With his typical lurid sand style, De Wolf skipped towards the rear wheel of Gajser, and a mistake by the Slovenian on lap three gave the Dutchman the chance to draw close, and launch into second place on the wall jump by Pit Lane!  Meanwhile, Febvre took until lap seven to make a move stick on Adamo for fifth, and Bonacorsi momentarily hit the top ten before a small mistake dropped him down the order. Gifting had passed Renaux for eighth on lap two, and former Lommel winner (and resident) Ben Watson would also dance past the Frenchman at half distance to take a brilliant ninth for Dirt Store Triumph Racing! Kevin Horgmo also moved into the top ten for Team Honda Motoblouz SR Motul.

Febvre took until lap 11 to get past Vialle for fourth, and although he got right up to the rear wheel of Gajser, he could not make that final pass to get into the top three.  Vialle took fifth as Adamo stayed ahead of Fernandez for sixth, helping him in his duel with the Spaniard for fifth in the series. Gifting took eighth, his best result since his return to action in the UK, ahead of Watson and Horgmo.

Herlings left the rest scratching their head with a winning margin of over 45 seconds, leaving everybody wishing him a poor start for race two!

 

Those wishes were not granted, however, as he sand-surfed his way around the outside of Vialle to lead into turn two, even though the Frenchman claimed his seventh Fox Holeshot Award of the season to equal Lucas Coenen at the top of that table!

De Wolf was further back even than in race one, but Gajser and Febvre were closer and the pair nearly came to grief as they both tried to make a move on Vialle! Febvre it was who got past his countryman in the outcome of that tangle, then Gajser launched the factory Yamaha off the wall jump to take third!  De Wolf had recovered well to get to fifth by the end of the first full lap, ahead of Fernandez, Van de Moosdijk, Gifting, Renaux, and the Becker Racing KTM of Max Spies.  Adamo was swiftly past the German, but then suffered a typical sand crash with a front wheel washout, and Spies actually passed Renaux to sit in ninth by the end of lap four!

Herlings was streaking ahead as De Wolf caught Gajser, and fought into third with a gap to bridge in order to reach Febvre in second. Adamo was also in good form after his crash, passing Spies and Renaux on lap six, then two laps later he toppled Gifting and Van de Moosdijk in consecutive circulations to reach seventh.  Only two more laps later he made an inside move on Fernandez, and looked set to stay there until the end.

By this time, Herlings begun to signal to Pit Lane that he was having issues, and his pitboard came out with the message of “No Clutch” in order to preserve the machine.  His teammate Vialle advanced on Gajser, passing him for fourth on lap 12 of the eventual 17. De Wolf never stopped charging, and advanced on Febvre with three laps to go. The Frenchman pushed on, but suffered a massive crash that sent him over the handlebars, and was clipped by De Wolf as the Dutchman was unable to avoid him!

Amazingly, the Champ remounted still in third, but with just a few corners to go his machine, possibly damaged in the heavy prang, stopped on the face of the jump.  He had lapped enough people to leave him in 13th position, those eight points enough to keep him in the top ten overall, ninth ahead of Horgmo, who ended race two in ninth position after another solid ride.

Spies was the last rider on the lead lap in 12th position, but Van de Moosdijk was promoted into the top ten by Febvre’s crash. One of the best charges of the race was by Watson, who got up to seventh at the flag ahead of Gifting, which is where the two men finished overall.  It was the Brit’s best overall result since May 2022 at Maggiora! The Swede’s finish was also his best since this round last year.

Adamo and Fernandez ended both race two, and the day overall, in fifth and sixth, while Vialle’s third wasn’t quite enough to get onto the podium.  That honour went to Gajser, his fifth podium of the year, with De Wolf a satisfied second. 

The problems for Herlings didn’t impact his speed, just maybe his mood as he took his 120th career victory, and a record fifth win at Lommel, in his stride.  Febvre moved past Coenen into second in the series, 104 points behind “The Bullet”.  The Dutchman is looking strong, but knows that nothing is decided yet.

The series switches back to a harder surface, the weekend after next, in Sweden at Uddevalla, where Febvre went 1-1-1 last year as Isak Gifting drove the fans wild!  Just what can this year bring for us?

 

Jeffrey Herlings: "It was a great weekend, just like last week we were topping every session. Two good starts today, I led every lap, Race 1 especially was really enjoyable. I had a small issue in Race 2 so I had to manage my pace, but we kept the gap to around 15 seconds and I'm just happy to bring it home. I had a bit of a crash near the end so Kay got second, but I don't really know by how much I won in the end, I just did what I had to do to win. That's 60 points, massive for the championship. Now it's about staying sharp, we've got five more races to go and we need to work on the sand before Arnhem, but the team works extremely hard day in, day out."

Kay de Wolf: "I learned a lot this weekend. I followed Jeffrey for the first 12 to 15 minutes in Race 1, then let him go because I knew I needed the energy for Race 2. I went the wrong way this morning in the first race, it's something you learn from, and I'm happy it happened now rather than at Arnhem. That's the plan since I came back, to learn, and I did that again today. I'm on the box, which is what we hoped for. Coming back from the injury I still felt like I wasn't quite there physically. With another three weeks under my belt I think I can show some good things at Arnhem."

Tim Gajser: "It was a decent weekend, I won't hide it, I was struggling a bit with the setup. The track wasn't the easiest either. In the first race I had a nice flow and could follow Kay, the second one I actually felt worse after we made some changes. Overall we're still learning and getting better with the Yamaha, it's a different bike to what I'm used to, a bit heavier, so the settings have to adapt too. But it's always nice to finish on the podium here in Lommel, the toughest GP of the year."

Camden Mc Lellan

Camden McLellan continued his domination of MX2 in morning Warm-Up with the top time, while Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2’s Janis Reisulis was next best. Former red plate holder Sacha Coenen was third fastest for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing, ahead of Guillem Farres and the second Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2 of Karlis Reisulis.

The crowd roared as home hero Liam Everts claimed his first Fox Holeshot Award of the year for Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing, and emerged in front after a brief dispute from the Maddii Racing Honda ABF Italia of Maxime Grau!  Coenen was hit by the KTM Kosak Racing machine of Valentin Kees on lap one, putting both riders onto the floor, the German clean out of the race!

Farres had gated well, but his teammate McLellan was outside the top ten through the first few sectors of the opening lap, so the Spaniard made all the progress he could to build an advantage, putting a clean pass on Everts for the lead halfway around the first full lap.  Janis Reisulis, Simon Längenfelder, and the Honda HRC Petronas of Valerio Lata all got past Grau, but the Frenchman wasn’t rolling over easy in his first GP at Lommel! McLellan ended the first full lap in ninth, behind the Dixon Racing Team Kawasaki of Kay Karssemakers and Karlis Reisulis, while the Young Motion Powered by Resa Husqvarna of Swede Alve Callemo was a surprise top ten runner!  He would continue to surprise all day long.

As Farres settled in at the front, his teammate’s progress was relentless, reaching fifth with a pass on Karlis by lap six.  He then made a rapid pass on Längenfelder for fourth, before passing both Janis and Everts to reach second by lap ten! The five second gap to Farres looked achievable!

Längenfelder tried to go with the South African, and made a sweet double pass on both Janis and Everts on lap ten!  The Belgian was suddenly fourth, but disaster struck and a technical issue put him out of the race, and snatched away any hope of a first home podium for the Husqvarna man.

It took McLellan three laps to close in on Farres, but he was helped by a big mistake from the Spaniard, who ran off-track as Camden approached!  The pair nearly came to a complete halt together as Farres saved what could have been a massive crash through a left-right corner sequence, and the South African was able to lead from there. 

Längenfelder took advantage of the confusion to take a good second place, with Farres settling for third. Karlis passed his brother for fourth with five laps to go, as Coenen staged a fine recovery to finish in sixth position.  Julius Mikula, in his last GP as a teenager for Osička KTM, claimed seventh ahead of the remarkable Callemo, Lata, and a charging Scott Smulders, who rounded out the top ten for SixtySeven Racing Husqvarna.

 

Sadly for the Dutchman, who was enjoying a good GP on return from a back injury, he got stuck on the gate as it dropped for race two, and this time it was Farres who claimed the Fox Holeshot Award for the fifth time this year! Längenfelder dived inside Everts to take second on turn three, with Coenen and Grau behind them. McLellan was at least inside the top ten this time, and fifth ahead of Grau by the end of the first full lap!

Janis Reisulis was seventh ahead of the Venrooy Racing KTM of Noel Zanocz, Karlis Reisulis, and Kees, although Karssemakers was also looking good until his bike stopped for the second time today! Callemo advanced well to finish tenth by the flag, enough for eighth overall, by far a career high for the young Swede, ahead of Zanocz, who was ninth in race two, and Lata. Mikula’s eighth in race two was enough for seventh overall, as he’s becoming a regular top ten man this season.

Sacha Coenen seemed to struggle with his rhythm to come home seventh in race two and sixth overall. Karlis was again the stronger Reisulis through the race, passing Everts on lap 12 to claim fourth in the race and fifth overall, directly ahead of his brother who went 5-6 on the day.

The podium men were a class above, however, and Längenfelder knew the charge from McLellan would be coming! He made a strong block pass on Farres to take the lead on lap seven, and the South African followed past his teammate a lap later!  The battle between the two who are fighting for third in the series raged for four laps, the German snatching the lead back on three occasions, until a final outside-to-inside switchback move sealed the deal for McLellan!  It was a stirring performance for just his second career GP win, and his first ever perfect weekend.  He will feel very confident about the forthcoming MXGP of Netherlands in three weeks’ time!

In the meantime, after a weekend off, the series resumes in Sweden, with Farres enjoying a 47-point margin over Sacha Coenen, while McLellan has closed to within 13 points of the Belgian, with Längenfelder only ten further back.  It promises to be a stunning last five rounds of this hectic Championship!

Uddevalla delivered one of the highlights of last year’s season, and none of us can wait for that one to get underway as we move headlong into the last two months of the season!  Join us there if you can!

 

Camden McLellan: "I don't know if I cracked the code, but  I was really just doing my thing like every weekend, it just worked out better this time. My starts were still way off, so there's still work to do there, but I felt very good on the bike and fitness-wise too. Lommel is a really difficult place to find a flow, and it was hot today on top of that. With ten minutes to go I was so jammed up with roost and dirt I had to basically throw up in my helmet and keep going, it wasn't easy. But I like that, it's a bit of character building."

Guillem Farrés: "It was a great weekend for me, I finally put together two solid starts after a tough one yesterday. I led a lot of laps and did my own race. Camden was really fast today, so in the second race I tried to learn from him and made a push at the end to hold second. I go race by race, I want to win every time I go out, but I also know Camden is strong, I train with him, so when I saw him going in the second race I settled for second, I think that was the right call. Good points for the championship again, and I'm happy to keep the podium streak going."

Simon Langenfelder: "The qualifying race, Race 1, was still quite nice to ride, I had a good flow and didn't use too much energy. The second race got hard toward the end, but I enjoyed it, you can really play with the track here. I got a bit lucky passing for the podium spot too, the guys ahead made mistakes on the inside and I rolled around the outside. It's a long race here, you can't be too tactical because you can gain a second or two a lap easily if you push."
