At MXGP Round 13 at Loket in the Czech Republic, Honda's Jeffrey Herlings swept the qualifying race and both Sunday motos. With Lucas Coenen sidelined by a British GP crash injury, Herlings' championship lead grew to 49 points (615-566) and marked his 119th career GP win.

Not dropping a single moto from qualifying through Sunday - even an ex-pro like me calls that the real deal. 119th win, 225 career wins, the stats say it all. His teammate Vialle even took second. Even with Coenen out, Herlings doesn't leave an opening from turn-in to exit, and that's genuinely impressive stuff.

Tying the record at Loket too, that's a nice bit of history

49 points with the season winding down, that's tough to claw back

The gap only grew because Coenen's out injured, let's be real

Fair, but 119 career wins is still a wild number regardless

Herlings sweeping again, the guy's an absolute monster
