Round 11 of the FIM World Motocross Series in Belgium. KTM's World Motocross Champion Tony Cairoli takes MX 1 GP win over Clement Desalle, and KTM's Jeffrey Herlings takes MX 2 GP win over teammate Roczen. TC 222 (Cairoli) and Ken Roczen lead their respective class championship point standings.
The Lommel circuit is similar to many in that part of Belgium - deep sand. Some riders love it. Some hate it. But no matter what, you must be in good physical condition to race two motos on this sandy track. The Lommel track will also host the 2012 Motocross of Nations.
In the MX 2 class, it was all Jeffrey Herlings, as he swept both motos over teammate Kenny Roczen. Third overall went to Jeremy van Horebeek. Fourth Max Anstie. The top four riders finished the same in each moto. KTM took the top three positions on the podium, with Max Anstie fourth racing for Kawasaki.
Roczen leads Herlings in the championship point chase, 490 to 469, as next week the GP circuit will race in the Czech Republic.
In the MX 1 class, KTM's reigning World MX Champ Tony Cairoli did what he does best. Win. Tony won both motos in the deep, rough sand of the Lommel circuit, and extends his series points lead in the MX 1 class. It looks like Tony is heading towards his fifth World MX title ...
Tony Cairoli - 222
Second overall went to 'hometown' rider Clement Desalle, followed by Max Nagl, Evgeny Bobryshev and Steve Frossard.
