DAVID LUONGO – EDITORIAL – MXGP MAG #128

As we are gearing up for the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany in Teutschenthal, it is already the time for our May’s edition of the MXGP Magazine. The past month has been very intense with our first triple headers Grand Prix that took place in Portugal, Spain and France. 

The MXGP of Portugal was very challenging with the weather conditions, but despite the very heavy rain during the whole weekend in Agueda, we, together with the local organizer, were capable to deliver a Grand Prix in good conditions. It is in these occasions that you really realise how much effort and determination motocross requires, and how much the sport is growing. In fact our champions are constantly proving that they can ride in any condition, and it is not the case in any other sport.

I would also like to emphasise the great work made by the track crew and the organizer; they did an amazing work on the track during the whole Saturday night until Sunday morning to allow the Grand Prix to take place, and also in between the different races. Pauls Jonass got his first Grand Prix victory in the MXGP class during this crazy weekend, and it was a great reward for Honda Standing Construct Team. 

One week later, Spain welcomed the MXGP on a bright new track in the beautiful region of Galicia, near the hometown of the reigning World Champion Jorge Prado. This new track, designed on a very natural and elevated area, received a lot of positive feedback from the whole paddock. The Spanish fans answered massively the call and came to cheer for the local hero. Jorge Prado made a perfect weekend and won the Grand Prix. 

Then we went back to Saint Jean d’Angely for the Monster Energy Grand Prix of France. We had to face again a very challenging weekend with heavy rain during Saturday and Sunday. Here again the organizer together with our track crew did an amazing job of maintenance on the track and the whole venue. The French fans came once again massively to celebrate the comeback of the best riders in the world after the Monster Energy MXoN that took place in Ernee last October. 

After those three Grand Prix, the MXGP classification is getting closer than ever with 4 riders in 61 points, Tim Gajser took the red plate with 5 points lead on Jorge Prado. Then Romain Febvre, Jeffrey Herlings and Pauls Jonass complete the top five.

In MX2 Kay de Wolf continue to lead the championship by 52 points on Simon Laengenfelder, but Lucas Coenen won the last two Grand Prix and he is showing more and more confidence and speed race after race. What about the performance of Liam Everts in Portugal who amazed the fans with his riding technic in the mud and winning the Grand Prix? Here also the top five, completed by Andrea Adamo stays in 85 points and there is no doubt that the competition will stay open until the end. 

We cannot wait for the racing this weekend in Teutschenthal for the next round of the MXGP World Championship. 

 

See you in Germany!

Let’s not forget our female fighters as well, as our Special Feature recaps the season so far in what is proving to be a year of new stars and exciting battles, with the ladies getting faster all the time!

We simply could not ignore the reigning World Champion’s amazing efforts so far this year, so Jorge Prado is our Rider of the Month after taking a fifth overall GP win of the year at his extremely home Grand Prix at Lugo.

The Vintage Bike section takes a look at one of the best riders to never earn a World Championship crown, the super-strong Marnicq Bervoets and his 1996 factory RM250.

The Belgian flavour continues in our Hall of Fame feature, with one of the sport’s tallest ever Grand Prix winners in the XL shape of Ken de Dycker, always a unique figure in our sport! We also feature a Podcast on Portugal’s only ever Grand Prix winner, Rui Goncalves.

WORLDWIDE COVERAGE LIQUI MOLY MXGP OF GERMANY – THE TALKESSEL AWAITS

TEUTSCHENTHAL (Germany) 31 May 2024 – After a weekend of rest – or national races for some – the MXGP World Championship resumes for the first of another run of three events in as many weekends, the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany!  This intense season of MXGP is sure to make for compelling viewing as we reach the eighth round of the series!

The historic Talkessel circuit at Teutschenthal in the Eastern end of Germany welcomes its 27th MXGP event in the middle of a titanic battle for the red plate in MXGP, as it bounces back to five-time Champion Tim Gajser, who only has a five-point lead over the reigning World Champion Jorge Prado!  Romain Febvre and Jeffrey Herlings are also in the hunt and both took the chequered flag first at some point over the Monster Energy MXGP of France weekend, so they will look to carry that momentum into this GP!  All four of them have tasted success here so the fight is most definitely on!

The MX2 class will give the local fans their biggest hope of domestic success, as Simon Laengenfelder lies second in the standings behind Kay de Wolf, and after race wins in Argentina and Trentino, he will enjoy massive support in a GP he missed last year! However, Lucas Coenen, third in points and on a two-GP winning streak, was only denied a win by a broken chain here last year, and will be out for redemption! The winner of last year’s GP, Liam Everts, lies fourth in the Championship ahead of his teammate and reigning Champion Andrea Adamo, with all five top men keen and able to make big points on German soil!

For Slovenian fans that are unable to make the journey to Eastern Germany, our good friends at SPORT TV Slovenia, who have been broadcasting MXGP since 2010 and have a current agreement through to 2028,  will be onsite to cover all four GP races LIVE on Sunday with full Slovenian commentary. The booth could get noisy if Gajser does well again!

Below you can find a list of TV channels that will air LIVE and delayed action of the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany, as well as the 26-minute Behind The Gate magazine show featuring the best moments from the races, exclusive interviews and more.  All of this footage will be available on MXGP-TV.com and via our TV magazine partners following the Grand Prix.

As always, MXGP fans can follow the races LIVE throughout the weekend. All you need to do is log onto www.MXGP-TV.com Saturday and Sunday, from wherever you are in the world.  Come and join us for what is turning out to be an amazing 2024 MXGP season!

MXGP IS BACK FOR MORE AT TEUTSCHENTHAL FOR THE LIQUI MOLY MXGP OF GERMANY

MONACO (Principality of Monaco) 29 May 2024 – The 2024 FIM Motocross World Championship returns after a weekend off to launch into another three-week run of events, beginning this weekend with the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany at the legendary Talkessel circuit of Teutschenthal!

The compact German valley has hosted a massive 26 MXGP events in its history, with its first being in 1971.  The winner that day was Suzuki star Joel Robert, on his way to the fifth of his six career world titles.  We didn’t return to the Talkessel until 1993, when a rider named after the great Robert, Joel Smets, won the first of his 57 career Grands Prix on his thundering Husaberg.

The venue has been on the MXGP calendar every year since 1999, apart from 2013, when it hosted the Motocross of Nations instead, and the pandemic-affected season of 2020.  Antonio Cairoli holds the record for the most Grand Prix wins at the circuit with five, amassing the most individual race wins as well with nine.  All four of the leading MXGP contenders have seen success in Teutschenthal.  The MX2 class sees the home crowd’s biggest hope for a German winner, with Simon Laengenfelder currently sitting second in the points for Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing.  

Riders who lined up at the 2013 Motocross of Nations and will still race in 2024 include two of the Swiss team that day, Jeremy Seewer of the Kawasaki Racing Team, and Team Ship to Cycle Honda Motoblouz SR rider Valentin Guillod. Fantic Factory Racing stalwart Glenn Coldenhoff was also there that day, although from the three, only Guillod got into the top ten.

The EMX250 Championship will return for their fifth round, with Mathis Valin bolting the red plate onto his Bud Racing Kawasaki after his home GP, and he now leads from Cas Valk, who is 23 points behind for Gabriel SS24 KTM, with previous leader Valerio Lata dropping to third for Beddini GASGAS Factory Juniors after scoring only 8 points at St, Jean d’Angely.

Teutschenthal also welcomes the FIM Women’s World Motocross Championship, back for the first time since 2018, when Courtney Duncan took the victory! Home heroine Larissa Papenmeier has won there twice in the past, and she will lean on the local support to lift her from 7th in the series.  Kiara Fontanesi, winner in 2015, is third in the points behind the flying teenage pair of Lotte van Drunen, who will carry the red plate for De Baets Yamaha, and RFME GASGAS Factory Juniors star Daniela Guillen, who is only nine points behind as they reach the halfway point of the series, this being round four of seven for WMX in 2024.

 


The 2024 MXGP title race is proving to be the absolute classic that the dazzling line-up promised at the start of the year. The previous two MXGP World Champions, Team HRC’s Tim Gajser and Jorge Prado for Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing, are just five points apart at the top of the standings after the Slovenian won the Monster Energy MXGP of France, while Romain Febvre sits just 24 points further back for the Kawasaki Racing Team after bravely fighting through a thumb injury sustained in Free Practice. 

Jeffrey Herlings of the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team is now fourth in the series and 61 points behind the leader, after winning race two at St Jean d’Angely. With the weather forecast showing more rain possible for the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany, Herlings could be the man to beat at the German circuit.

Of the active MXGP field, Gajser has won the most at Teutschenthal, taking the MX2 trophy in his first title year of 2015, plus MXGP victories in 2019, ’21, and ’22.  Herlings and Prado have each won three at the Talkessel, with the current Champion taking the honours last season. Febvre has only one overall win there, taking the MXGP class in 2015.  His 2024 teammate Jeremy Seewer also won in MX2 back in 2017.

With a 43-rider entry list there should be a full gate in MXGP, with a large swell of local wildcards hoping to perform well in front of the usually large and raucous crowd! Tom Koch is the highest-placed German in the standings for the KTM Kosak Team, and the Schmicker Racing team will also be enjoying its home Grand Prix with its riders Corneliues Toendel and Adam Sterry.

The fight is well and truly still on in MXGP, both at the sharp end and throughout what is sure to be a crowded valley, both on and off the track!

MXGP - World Championship Top 10 Classification: 1. Tim Gajser (SLO, HON), 348 Points;  2. Jorge Prado (ESP, GAS), 343 Points; 3. Romain Febvre (FRA, KAW), 319 Points ; 4. Jeffrey Herlings (NED, KTM), 287 Pts; 5. Pauls Jonass (LAT, HON), 253 Pts; 6. Jeremy Seewer (SUI, KAW), 234 Pts; 7. Calvin Vlaanderen (NED, YAM), 223 Pts; 8. Glenn Coldenhoff (NED, FAN), 200 Pts; 9. Kevin Horgmo (NOR, HON), 145 Pts; 10. Valentin Guillod (SUI, HON), 130 Pts.

The MX2 class has provided some wild racing in 2024, with the first six riders in the standings all taking a race win on either Saturday or Sunday, and so far the Grand Prix victories have gone in waves, with Kay de Wolf taking the first three for Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing, Liam Everts the next two for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing, then De Wolf’s teammate Lucas Coenen taking the most recent two rounds.  De Wolf’s consistency has seen him stretch out a 52-point lead in the Championship, and the big home favourite Simon Laengenfelder is the next rider along, scoring well in every race apart from the second one in Portugal, where he crashed and broke his collarbone.

Struggling on with plating over the injury for Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing, his speed has been climbing again, and he will be looking to make the most of the home support with the volume of the valley sure to rise with every move forward he makes! Lucas Coenen’s two wins have seen him rise back to third, just 7 points behind the German.

Everts and his teammate Andrea Adamo, the reigning Champion in the class, are fourth and fifth, with the other winner, Thibault Benistant of the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2, sadly likely to be out for Germany after hurting his back in a big crash in France.

Everts took the overall win at Teutschenthal last year, although he had a slight piece of fortune as Lucas Coenen suffered a broken chain whilst leading race two, after dominating the first. Both De Wolf and Laengenfelder suffered injuries before last year’s event, so with the top five all healthy, the Liqui Moly MXGP of Germany could prove just as unpredictable as every other round this year!

MX2 - World Championship Top 10 Classification: 1. Kay de Wolf (NED, HUS), 342 Points; 2. Simon Laengenfelder (GER, GAS), 290 Points; 3. Lucas Coenen (BEL, HUS), 283 Pts; 4. Liam Everts (BEL, KTM), 268 Pts; 5. Andrea Adamo (ITA, KTM), 257 Pts;  6. Thibault Benistant (FRA, YAM), 226 Pts; 7. Mikkel Haarup (DEN, TRI), 216 Pts; 8. Rick Elzinga (NED, YAM), 211 Pts; 9. Sacha Coenen (BEL, KTM), 159 Pts; 10. Camden McLellan (RSA, TRI). 126 Pts.
