Hunter Lawrence was not massively impressed with Jorge Prado at Indy after Lawrence alleged the returning KTM star with his customary great starts, appeared to let Eli Tomac, his KTM teammate, by easily but made it a little more difficult for Hunter.
Lawrence, right in the heat of the battle with Tomac for the championship, said in thr press conference: “I mean, he pulled aside for Eli and then he tried to, not break check me, but slow me down there. If he’s just coming back to get in the way then I’m gonna give him some body English, you know? Maybe Jett will come back and do the same.”

MXGPの250時代から関係悪いとも聞いたことあるが、一緒の時期出てたのかな…

Prado has now responded on Instagram…
Do not forget Prado and Hunter were competitors as teenage talents in MX2 GP’s, this is not their first time racing together, and it could be a rivalry to keep an eye on in the States, both are great starters with brilliant technique so they could find each other a lot during the races – outdoors could be fun!
