wandersome Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Not disputing the fact paying the bonus point for 3rd place, but how do you know that Kevin Doolan is paid £110 per point. I don't. I was going on the basis he twice stayed in front of bjerre. so just working on the £55 a point maximum pay and the 2 points he would have lost had he let Bjerre through that's £110.

TMW Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Sorry Tina, but this wasn't the point i was making at all. Probably the fault lies in my explaination but there you go. My point being irrespective of how they actually rode or ride, the BP track affords a rider the ability to get away with poor preparation due to the fact that wherever you find yourself once you've 'popped' out the gate it's easier to defend your position than at most tracks that actually have lines to overtake on. I fear we've moved on a little since yesterday now though , but i did want to make my point clear. Yep. Turning an away meeting into a BP track argument. and my point was if they had gated they would have been ok because as Glynn pointed out there were 5 passes in 60 laps. I don't. I was going on the basis he twice stayed in front of bjerre. so just working on the £55 a point maximum pay and the 2 points he would have lost had he let Bjerre through that's £110. You are right of course as most of the passes were Lions passing Lions and now riders/teammates are fighting for every position except 1st. I don't suppose DH can flaunt the rules, as other teams, as he is not yet. a fully fledged member of the gang till the next AGM :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandersome Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) Yep. Turning an away meeting into a BP track argument. of course that's my point Tina. My point being that having such an absolutely dreadful home track may have an influence on how the riders ride and set themselves up for an away track. How's the 'none so blind...' saying go. jeez.
