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.
