JEFFERY HERLINGS INJURED JUST 20-DAYS BEFORE 2022 MXGP SEASON OPENER
Sadly, the 2021 MXGP World Champion, Jeffery Herlings, has injured his left foot just 20-days ahead of the series opener for the 2022 MXGP season. Jeffery’s career has been characterized by dominating speed and dramatic injuries. Sometimes, Herlings is able to overcome the injuries to win anyways. For example: last season at Round 4 of the 2021 MXGP season at Oss, Holland, Jeffery was landed on immediately after the race began (click here to watch videos of it) and he somehow still managed to win the moto with a broken shoulder blade. However, the pain was too much to bear afterwards and Herlings sat out Moto 2 and the following weekend’s race. Then, amazingly, Jeffery was able to recover and solider on to eventually win the 2021 MXGP title.
Now, after winning a pre-season training race in Spain, Jeffery is once again dealing with an injury that will affect the beginning of his 2022 MXGP season, whether he tries to race through the pain or not.
