American adventure Jeffrey Herlings put away!
De indications from Pit Beirer last week were already significant. Now the high word is out. KTM does not want to grant Jeffrey Herlings' (24) wish to participate in the AMA Motocross Nationals.
So the plan for 'the Bullet' is to simply return to the MXGP when the time is right." Jeffrey's contract only includes the World Championship in the MXGP. Participating in the MX circuit in America was a wish, an idea," said KTM's sporting manager Joël Smets to the NOS.
This Monday, Herlings awaits a new examination of his foot. In principle, the reigning MXGP world champion could be back on the bike at the end of April. When he rides his first GP, it's still hard to see. The American Nationals start in Hangtown on May 18. Jeffrey had suggested this as an alternative to focus on a motivating goal, a championship where he could still fight for the title.
