COVINGTON PODIUMS AT PORTUGUESE MXGP
R
ed Bull KTM's Antonio Cairoli
will turn 32 years old only
about a week after the 2017
MXGP World Championships
conclude in September, and
he's busy trying to prove that age
is just a number. Cairoli's lat-
est triumph, a 2-1 performance
to win the Portuguese MXGP,
has vaulted him to a seemingly
untouchable 91-point lead with
seven races left to run in the 19-
race championship series.
Antonio Cairoli
moved one
step closer
to a possible
ninth MXGP
championship
after picking up
another win in
Portugal.
