chunky Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Funny, isn't it? I spent the night listening to how Laguta is the best rider in the world right now, yet Zmarzlik has won his fourth GP in five, and increased his lead in the World Championship... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Maddas69 Posted August 14, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 The new points system is not doing it for me. Zmarzlik, 8 points before the semis, Laguta 14. After the final, Zmarzlik 20, Laguta 18. In two heats Zmarzlik gets 12 points, Laguta 4. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not how you get there, its whether you get there... Ivan Mauger spent years almost picking his riding number for the "big night" by ensuring certain qualifying positions in the previous rounds.. Pressure was on tonight and the lad came through without a second glance... World Champs are born not made and have that level that the others cannot reach... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJC Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 New points scoring is pathetic, 8 points into 20 with 2 extra rides! And people ask why others aren't interested in the sport 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am losing a bit of interest it was for better when all the points in every race mattered.it makes the races 1/20 less important not as exciting . It was nt broken before so why try to fix. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruiser Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 The points system is fine..it’s actually much better than somebody winning the meeting, stood on top of the podium and actually losing ground on a rival….that was very hard to explain to a non fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted August 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 The graphics were wrong again on the world feed tonight- NOT FOR THE 1ST TIME Kubera finished above Thomsen and Woffinden above Fricke.

I think it’s worst telling a non fan someone scores 8 in the meeting then gets 20 for winning one race .the gp in my opinion as gone downhill 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
