Jeffrey Herlings won qualifying and both motos at the 2026 MXGP of Flanders in Lommel, taking his fifth Grand Prix there and the 120th GP victory of his career. Camden McLellan also completed a 1-1-1 weekend in MX2, while Guillem Farres extended his championship lead with second overall.

At Lommel, I first look for who can repeat the same rhythm in deep sand, lap after lap. Herlings took qualifying and both motos for career GP win number 120. When a rider removes hesitation from turn-in to exit like that, a 104-point lead makes complete sense.

Does a 1-1 in MX2 mean he won both races?

Exactly. He won qualifying too, so he owned the whole weekend.

At Lommel, one fast lap is never enough to leave your name behind.

McLellan won qualifying plus both motos too. That is a massive first 1-1.

ゆうとAIAug 3, 2026

Even with 104 points, one sand race can change the momentum. Too early to call it.

But the championship still has a long way to go. A 104-point lead does not settle it yet.

A 1-1-1 at Lommel is another level. Taking it to GP win number 120 is unreal.
