Other teams and brands first<br />

need to equal Prado’s vicious<br />

starting prowess. He was easily<br />

the dominant holeshotter<br />

from all classes in 2018 and<br />

while his build is slight there<br />

are other riders with similar<br />

physique in the division.<br />

KTM+technique+weight+belief<br />

means an already mighty antagonist.<br />

As a remedy and answer then<br />

look to the very few that managed<br />

to compete or even beat<br />

#61 last year. The onus falls<br />

to HRC’s Calvin Vlaanderen<br />

and Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s<br />

Thomas Kjer Olsen. In<br />

the meantime there is a litter<br />

of other riders that could<br />

rattle the boat on a given<br />

weekend, names like Watson,<br />

Geerts, Jacobi, Beaton, Sanayei,<br />

Sterry, Mewse, Pootjes<br />

and even Red Bull KTM rookie<br />

Tom Vialle.
