HERLINGS, PRADO STORM
ST. JEAN D'ANGELY
T
here was a downpour of rain
in the forecast for the St.
Jean d'Angely round of the FIM
Motocross World Champion-
ships, June 9, but it never fully
materialized, which was either
good or bad depending on who
you asked. For MX2 winner
Jorge Prado it was a good thing.
For Red Bull KTM's Jeffrey Her-
lings, it was all the same as he
continued his 2018 domination.
Herlings grabbed a massive
holeshot from the outside gate in
moto one over Monster Energy
Kawasaki's Clement Desalle,
Red Bull KTM's Glenn Colden-
hoff and Antonio Cairoli. It took
Cairoli over half the race to find
his way by Coldenhoff, and by
then the leaders were just too
far-gone. Herlings won by about
six seconds over Desalle, who
had less than a second in-hand
on Cairoli at the checkered flag.
Quite a ways back came
Honda's Tim Gajser in fourth

Is there any stopping
Jeffrey Herlings? The
Red Bull KTM rider
helped himself to
another 1-1 victory at
round 10 of the MXGP
Championship.
