Jeffrey Herlings won the qualifying race at the MXGP Sweden round for his ninth straight victory, stretching his championship lead to 106 points. Tom Vialle finished fourth and Ruben Fernandez fifth, giving Honda three riders in the top five.
Nine straight wins is next-level. He rode that qualifier flawlessly from the first corner to the checkered flag and stretched the gap to 106 points — I've seen that kind of control from the paddock myself. Blow the two main motos tomorrow though, and all of it means nothing, so there's no room to relax.
