Expand No doubt Floppy was an excellent guest back in the day. But TW just shows that the idea of picking a guest on the basis of how good you are at riding is fatally flawed. As he says ' all he does is ride the bike' You need to book a guest who can put together coherent sentences based upon an understanding of so much more and with insightful analysis. And Tai just hasn't been blessed with that skill He is a master on his machine. No doubt . But he can't put that into words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Central Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 That is clear from the regs. It is so pitiful that it would seem those involved are unaware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the inherent preference for second and third over the winner in a 3-3 was the same effectively in the deciding races.

This was the problem we had last year. The new system is clearly better and fairer. Edited May 4, 2019 by WalterPlinge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the SR for the meeting to find out the ref and the jury president to blame. Also remember, they need to get it right. The important heats wont get re-run later...

WalterPlinge Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 And even long after we've watched Germany v Czecho in the 3rd and 4th place race-off, the graphics are still showing Slovenia 4th. The bimbo in the pits was just awful. Not a clue what was going on. Even though Shouty and Kelv knew the new rules, they were still doubting themselves. "As far as we understand it". If you know the rules you need to gow a pair and be definite, not be hedging your bets with self-doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
