Jeffrey Herlings took his 102nd and record breaking Grand Prix win in the backyard of his World Championship rival to to create a lasting legacy wih Stefan Everts in attendance and take a big step to taking the red plate in simultaneous emphatic fashion. What a perfect day for the Dutch rider.

Herlings and Prado got into a battle for third in race one, passing and repairing each other before Herlings chased down a flying Guadagnini for the win with Prado charging hard to get into second with Guadagnini an excellent third.
In race two Herlings came from fifth and at the halfway point pulled the pin to go from third to fifth passing Guadagnini and race leader Ruben Fernandez who was having a fantastic ride out front in front of his home crowd.
But not even the Spaniard with a crowd behind him could hold the winning machine behind him as Herlings went 1-1 at Prado’s home GP. Prado taking fifth in race two. The points are down to six and Herlings is officially the winningest GP rider ever – and maybe, probably, the fastest rider that has ever lived.
Herlings said: ” It’s pretty insane. To do it at Jorge home place is pretty nice. I want to thank myself, because I did it and thanks to everyone that has helped for all the GP wins. To have won 102 GP wins with one team, I want to thank Pit for this one.”
Mattia Guadagnini got a well deserved podium, alongside Ruben Fernandez with Prado’s countryman and teammate keeping the championship leader off the box for the first time all season, and at his home track and the first time all year he couldn’t holeshot when he really needed too.

Simon Laengenfelder dominated both motos to win his first MX2 GP overall since the first round at Matterley Basin in 2022! Laengenfelder was the class of the field in both motos and even Jago Geerts realised it wasn’t worth risking a world title to go that pace and settled for second with Andrea Adamo keeping his good form going with third overall.
