Apparently, it is what is is...

It might have been...

But it might be...

Same with what I have in my underpants...

I disagree. What if it ISN'T what it is???

Terrible thing in motorsport, eh? Having fast equipment...

Give him a Ferrari engine; that'll slow him down...

Great ride from Lindbackwards there...

Most people won't care; it's the points that are the important thing!

I just hated his helmet, and those bloody green leathers!

Couldn't have said that better myself. Perhaps they learned the whinging from BSF members???

Simmo? Steve Lomas? Mark Terry?

You wouldn't be saying that if he was a Hackney rider!!!

As I said, I don't like it, but I agree 100%. Neither do their times and performances in the qualifying rounds count either. And nobody bitches about that... Reading this forum, it's like people claim to be speedway fans, yet are constantly looking for reasons NOT to be.

Did anyone complain when Malcolm Simmons or Peter Collins scored 15 points in a Daily Mirror Grand Prix QR in 1976, yet only got 10 GP points? Of course not! While I am not a fan of the new system (I much prefer all points on track counting), anyone with an IQ in double figures or better SHOULD be able to understand it... Anyway, whether I like it or not, it doesn't prevent me from enjoying four blokes engaging in good racing...

But Tom was young and good looking...

Who would you want to play Tom?

...and luck will play a much bigger part - which isn't right...

You know, I always felt there was a simple solution to that. Keep the same race draw/format, but leave the order of the last four races until after heat 16. Not perfect, obviously, but you could just make sure that it all went down to the last race. The same problem I have with figure skating; the leading contenders compete in a pre-drawn order. Trouble is, they have to "leave room" after the early skaters, so even if the first skater is the leader, and produces a perfect programme, they cannot be awarded perfect marks. Simple solution - skate in reverse order...

That's what I did. Unfortunately, I only got in from work a couple of minutes before the start, and missed the first race because of farting around. So, I checked on YouTube, and found a stream immediately. Anyone know why it's not being streamed via the SGP website, as it was in previous years?

Sstrange thing is that people go on about how "unfancied" riders in the old world finals were so great, as they promised some shocks, but in the gp's, nobody seems to want them!

You mean "Lind-at-the-back"?

The opportunities are there for them to qualify. If they don't, and more experienced riders do, they only have themselves to blame.

Vettel and Leclerc could use his engines...

I really don't know, but I was thinking about that too!
