MXGP 2026 2 2026-03-22 2026-03-22 https://r2.thesportsdb.com/images/media/event/poster/ihf0dz1776013474.jpg The final moto of the MXGP of Andalucia presented the most grueling conditions of the weekend at the Circuito di Motocross di Almonte. The primary challenge for the riders was a track that had become "brutally" rough, with deep sand ruts and square-edged bumps testing both physical endurance and bike setup. For Lucas Coenen, the objective was to complete a perfect 1-1-1 weekend sweep to secure the championship red plate, while Jeffrey Herlings sought to refine his Honda's sand setup to bridge the gap to the flying Belgian. Strategically, the 30-minute plus two laps race required a delicate balance of aggression and patience. The objective for Tim Gajser was to recover from a difficult first moto and find a podium-contending rhythm on his factory Yamaha. With the Spanish sun continuing to bake the technical Almonte layout, the tactical priority for the field was avoiding mistakes in the treacherous "wave" section, which had already claimed several victims during the morning’s MX2 and EMX races. 2459224
