Superfinal is also a JH84 favorite! (+reactions and news)
You already could read how Jeffrey Herlings created the two “normal” series shall we say, dominated, and how the Australians Jed Beaton and Hunter Lawrence together with Thomas Kjer Olsen, Adam Sterry and reigning MX2 world champion Pauls Jonass colored the 250cc class.
Pauls Jonass impresses with 250cc among 450cc machines
But for a moment we forgot that a super final was also contested there in Lacapelle Marival. A final that was of course also won by none other than Jeffrey Herlings. In this final, however, he was well kept up by Max Anstie, who finished just five seconds away in Herlings time. Behind these two it was the Walloon Belgian Clément Desalle who finished third, just under half a minute behind the victor. The top five was completed by Shaun Simpson and Pauls Jonass, who performed very well on his 250cc among 450cc engines! Hunter Lawrence disappointed with fifteenth place. The F&H Kawasaki pilots Jed Beaton and Adam Sterry, on the other hand, simply chose their money's worth and took no risks with their 250cc engine among the 450cc engines and therefore did not get to the start.
Constructive day for both Kevin Strijbos and Jago Geerts
The lowlanders, who were placed for the super final, did far from poorly, as Kevin Strijbos continued his strong performance from his second round with a sixth place, and we saw Jago Geerts finish twelfth. The Dutchman Bas Vaesen finished in a disappointing eighteenth place. Jeremy Delincé, who was also allowed to participate in the super final, unfortunately did not reach the finish.
News from France
Arnaud Tonus Today he only came into action during the timed training, in which he did not achieve a decent time. After that, the Swiss did not play again due to a shoulder injury. We will hear about this injury in the coming days through Yamaha's press channels.
The Dutchman Glenn Coldenhoff also hardly saw action in France. He in turn had to deal with an injury that he suffered in the first match of the Italian championship. There the Dutchman overextended his finger, an injury that seemed to have disappeared after the strong performance in Hawkstone Park. But in Lacapelle Marival the Dutchman again overextended this finger and relapsed into the injury. “Nothing serious” Glenn already noted, but in order not to take any risks, we chose not to take any more action and let everything heal in anticipation of the MXGP World Championship starting in Argentina.
