With the amount of injuries and riders not fully fit in MXGP at the moment, Tim Gajser is looking like the man to beat for the 2019 title.

With a 33 point lead over closest rival Tony Cairoli who picked up a nasty shoulder injury in Latvia, the door is now closing on the chasing pack of contenders. Even with the brief return of Jeffrey Herlings, Tim Gajser only needs to ride consistently well without incident and the crown is his.

We’ll see what happens this weekend in Germany, will KTM riders Cairoli and Herlings line up after the mishaps from Latvia?
