Joël Smets over verwachting Coldenhoff in MXGP

Gatedrop: Has your work with Desalle, Strijbos and Coldenhoff been going well over the winter?

Smets: Yeah very well, the only thing is Desalle is mainly doing his own thing. So I am working more with Strijbos and Coldenhoff and also a little bit with Seewer in MX2 as well, but we have done a lot of work and it is going really well.

Gatedrop: With Glenn Coldenhoff coming from MX2, he is a smooth rider and had good results at Qatar last year what are your expectations for him?

Smets: That is another story, we know there are a lot of big names in MXGP right now, so it would be stupid to tell Glenn he had to be top five, that’s not realistic I think. With him the aim to to infiltrate in the top ten, on bad days finish between eighth and twelfth on bad days and on good days let’s say, between third and eighth on good days.

Ook over Desalle en Strijbos.

Heeft Coldenhoff hetzelfde materiaal als Desalle/Strijbos?

Weet ik niet, die twee zitten bij Suzuki World MXGP en Coldenhoff bij Suzuki Europe GP. Maar denk vrijwel hetzelfde?

Coldenhoff heeft trouwens z'n teen gebroken paar dagen terug.

Wist niet dat hij zijn teen gebroken heeft, doet wel mee in Qatar?

The Industry have their say on Jeffrey Herlings in Qatar

It seems everybody has an opinion on Jeffrey Herlings and how he is going to perform in Qatar after such a longtime off the bike and short preparation time for round 1 of the world motocross championship which starts on February 28.



Ray Chuss – MOTO Editor Online
“He’ll win a race I’m sure, Jeffrey is a beast, his will to win is like no other in the MX2 class, Jeffrey is like the Mike Tyson of the motocross world – one stare and its over.”

Kristian Whatley – Buildbase Honda
“3-5 I reckon - Could podium but don’t think he’s going to be to bothered as he knows he can piss it.”

Steve Dixon - Monster Energy DRT Kawasaki
“I like Herlings now and I do think he likes to play the game of leading others into a false sense of security but he has been quiet and when you are passionate determined and quiet then that means he is working hard and will still be dangerous. I still put him down for the win.”

Olly Stone – Pro Circuit Monster Energy Kawasaki mechanic for Tyler Bowers
“On the box. He still has a few weeks to get ready. And he works hard. And everyone knows he can ride a bike.”

Julian Challis – Deputy Editor Moto Magazine
“The practice video doesn’t suggest he’s going to be holding back much. As Herlings on a bad day is still faster than anyone else on a good day I think he can come in and win it, just with a lead of slightly less than his usual minute plus. The only thing that can stand in his way is a fall on his recently healed leg, but in fairness Herlings is not a rider that spends too much time on the deck.”

Elliott Banks Browne – Geartec Suzuki
“Erm honestly it’s really hard to know how Jeffrey is going or feeling, for 3 years he has pretty much not been beaten in a GP so I’m going to say he will go 2-1 for the overall.

Qatar doesn’t get that rough so I think his fitness should be OK and I really can’t see his speed being to bad, last year he could have dropped 2 seconds a lap and still won most GP’s.. You know what I’m going to say 1-1 actually.”

Shaun Simpson – Hitachi KTM
“He will be there, solid. Podium or top 5.”

Jordan Booker – Privateer
“1st.”

Dominique Essig – MotoX Germany Editor Online
“He’s a really bad dude and even with a broken leg managed to run up front, so I still think he will finish on the podium. I’ll give him a 3rd.”

Dave King – Leatt UK
“I don’t think Qatar is a particularly difficult and demanding track so it may help him, I think he will get top 5 no problem, 2 to watch this year will be Gasjer and Jonass, but once JH84 is 5 GPs in they are all screwed!”

Tommy Searle – Factory KTM
“1ST.”

Dave Willet – MOTO’s chief tester and selfie addict
“Jeffrey will be standing on the box in Qatar for sure which will be a awesome achievement.. I don’t think, he’ll win the GP! But I’m sure he will be near the front as the kid has the ability to lift his pace at any stage with or without bike time I believe you’ll even see him challenging for the win in the second Moto!” #naturaltalent

Brad Anderson – MBO Yamaha
“Defo be number 1.”

motocrossvice twitterde op vrijdag 27-02-2015 om 21:59:45 Herlings stated that he is around 65% and that he knows if he was 100% he would be one or two seconds faster... reageer retweet

Coldenhoff wil top 5 rijden morgen maar ik zie dat niet gebeuren.

Kwalificatieraces staan er volledig op.

Prima starts van Herlings (tweede) en Bogers (vijfde), Herlings haalde teamgenoot Jonass in maar zag later Ferrandis voorbij komen maar met nog een paar ronde's te gaan ging Herlings hem weer voorbij.



[ Bericht 18% gewijzigd door Nober op 28-02-2015 18:55:31 ]

44ste GP zege, derde keer in Qatar. 34ste keer met 50 punten.



6de GP zege voor Nagl, eerste voor Husqvarna sinds???????

[ Bericht 34% gewijzigd door Nober op 28-02-2015 21:52:28 ]

Lieber had ik ook niet verwacht, hoop dat Herlings de laatste paar GP's in de MXGP kan rijden als MX2 kampioen.



"Lijkt wel een KTM"

Van de Ven ook hard eraf.

Wel derde in de tweede manche.
