7th Rd. Motocross 2018 – Kegums (Latvia)
MXGP
A Grand Prix venue since 2009 and host of the Motocross of Nations in 2014 Kegums underwent some alterations and adjustments with a reversed layout to stage the seventh #mxgp fixture of the year. Home to three MX2 wins for #jeffreyherlings and also the Dutchman’s first success on the 450SX-F last summer, the loose, sandy and bumpy Kegums soil was again ripe terrain for the current standings leader to increase his margin at the top of #mxgp. Herlings had to work for his fifth win from seven rounds by cutting through from top ten starts – from Pole Position – and overhauling #tonycairoli in both motos.
Herlings was the undisputed winner but Cairoli (on his 222nd Grand Prix appearance) pushed his teammate to new limits at Kegums. In the second #moto the Sicilian was unlucky to run into backmarkers while Herlings was closing on his rear wheel and was powerless to respond when #84 surged ahead.
