When Jeffrey Herlings Almost Lapped The Entire Field

[@karlkarlsson9126]

Imagine being lapped as 3rd thinking the guy that overtook you was in the 4th place, only to see him raise his hand on the finish line when you have one more lap to go :P.

[@mittiejackson3427]

The flying Dutch Man.

[@wernerxldata]

He did the same in Lommel in de last race of the mxon, fell on lap 1 and started as last rider, was in some laps almost 10 seconds faster than #222 who led the race. I was a spectator at both races, it's insane, he has time to pull a tearoff on the most brutal sandwhoop sections... Everyone else would die doing that 😂

[@jwhitby515]

Yeah Cairoli kepped him off though! ridiculous how he was able to close up on Cairoli that first few laps but then ran out of steam

[@wernerxldata]

@@jwhitby515 Yup, had to come through the entire field and Cairoli was pretty comfortable in the lead. And Jeffrey had two races without rest in between... There was not enough energy left in the tank to pass Cairoli. Both were riding incredible compared to anyone else there.

Pretty sure only rc lapped the entire field. He was deffinetly the first to do so and holds the record most lapped a single moto of 39.. Everyone else.. including Bubba was a almost. Look it up .. fairly certain.. it was only ever rc

[@johntomasik1555]

I wish they'd find a way to combine the series between the MXGP and the US Nationals. If they could do 4 races a year, 2 in the States, 2 wherever the MXGP wants, and pay out points according to each series (e.g., if the best American finishes 3rd but ahead of the US riders, he gets 25 points), it would be awesome. Fans would get to see the best of each series, and the field would be stacked with fast.

[@johntomasik1555]

@@ChrisrubyPhilippines Nah, a lot of US fans are asking for it. It's the FIM and AMA who won't do it. Heck, throw in a few SX races as part of the series. I'd bet Jett would beat the piss out of what's on the MXGP series, anyway.

[@mattiazanetta335]

there is an interview to Stefan Everts during the race that means everything 😂 I saw Jeffrey in 2014 on Netherlands MXGP, was crazy to see live how he rode on the sand 😮‍💨

[@HPAcustomriflesandcerakote]

I raced motocross for 15yrs and I was a great rider with many state championships and a decent amount of contingency earned since its all my dad and sponsors had me race every weekend was contingency. I raced a lot of other fast guys and watched a lot of fast guys but I never saw anyone as fast as Herlings. Only person I can compare to being so dominant was Travis Pastrana (who had the same instructor as I did which was Gary Bayle) when Travis was on 85cc and 125cc. Travis use to let the gate drop and sit there until everyone got half way around the track before he would take off and this was a gate full of great Cernics Suzuki riders like Brandon Jesseman, Gene Stahl, Matt Hill, and others who were some of the best to come out of Cernics in Western Pennsylvania
