Outstanding end of the 2019 season in Shanghai for Jeffrey Herlings

The eighteenth and final Grand Prix of 2019 took place in Shangai. After dominating 2018 both Cairoli and Herlings were the victim of injuries this season but still managed to collect 8 podium results between them despite only 12 appearances.

Jeffrey Herlings: “I wanted to finish the year strongly: I owed to Red Bull, KTM and all my partners after the injury. I gave everything I had and I’m very grateful to have won the last two GPs. I’ll race in the sand next week for the final preparation for Assen. Hopefully with Team Holland we can go for the win. Then, next year in MXGP, I want to fight hard to get the title back. I really enjoyed the track here – it was tough to pass in places – but we won the GP and that’s the most important thing.”
