Well done Ducati. Saved my bacon.

Schummy · 22 Apr 2007, 18:00 (Ref:1897836)

Yes, well done for Ducati

Good to see more people contending for wins in MotoGP.

I'll put the results sooner than later

Schummy · 22 Apr 2007, 18:35 (Ref:1897852)

No many points in Turkey. The 125cc race was a chaos with 6 or 7 riders opting for a win, who in the end got it was Corsi who never before had won, so this one was basically impossible.

The 250's was another great race, but in this case by the three likely contender along the season. Dovi won and Eurosport's commentators uncharacteristically almost got an orgasm

MotoGP was a good race for the simple reason Rossi didn't win it. When Vale (who is the best) has troubles it is good for the race and for the championship. The thing is this year we perhaps will be confronted with the bizarre idea that maybe someone else (rider-bike) win the title on merit, not just by a sucession of Rossi retirements and maladies (I'm not sure VR could win this race anyway). It would be a first since VR first title in the category.

When Rossi doesn't win, we get few points

. Just three savant people knew better and bet for Stoner

So many aussies and you see how loyal they are when money is involved

In the end of the day, justice was done, and arguably the three people with more knowledge about bike racing won this round: BOTTY, bestfit and Schummy

Code:

 
        125 250 MGP TOT
bestfit  0   3   3 = 6
Schummy  0   3   3 = 6
BOTTY    0   3   3 = 6
SALEEN   0   3   0 = 3
jhansen  0   0   3 = 3
beau1    0   3   0 = 3
Knowlesy 0   0   3 = 3
Dani     0   3   0 = 3
marcus   0   0   0 = 0

Things are very close in the two lesser cats. In MotoGP besty has an advantge. And in Total he is the most fit, with 3.5 points advantage. Maybe really bestfit is the player to watch this cup.

As can be seen, several players decided to rest instead of think deeply about this game and they passed this round. Well, now they are in the tail of the table (even those who donated some amount to Schummy Fundation Inc.).

Code:

125cc:
------

Bleu     2.5
Schummy  2.5
BOTTY    2.5

250cc:

Schummy  3
BOTTY    3

What the hell kind of a post was that Schummy, that was very out of character!

I'm doing pretty crumby this year it has to be said.

*waits for Schummy's emotional support*

Schummy · 22 Apr 2007, 19:45 (Ref:1897905)

Here it goes

Schummy

unKnowlesy

Knowlesy · 22 Apr 2007, 19:48 (Ref:1897908)

*sob*

Schummy · 22 Apr 2007, 19:49 (Ref:1897911)

Knowlesy,

Just to compensate my tasteless post, I'm going to give you support in the Bahrain F1 thread about several tyre makers better than only one. It is difficult but I'll try my best

Knowlesy · 22 Apr 2007, 20:01 (Ref:1897930)

Just checked.

Thanks for nothing.

beau1 · 22 Apr 2007, 20:04 (Ref:1897935)

125cc and MotoGP Clearly hate me this year.

250's must love me or something.

If bestfit allows, you can win 250cc. Try to guess the lollipop boy and someone else just in case, and the title can be yours

Show me the money!!

ralf fan · 22 Apr 2007, 23:47 (Ref:1898079)

Missed the damn round.

It was good for you guys too, because I was going to get maximum points had i entered. I had a 'feeling' about all of today's winners. (That is my story and i'm sticking to it.

)

Schummy · 23 Apr 2007, 00:09 (Ref:1898089)

Ralf, brother, I believe in you. I saw you saying in Farmchair Enthused forum that Corsi was going to win his first race, Dovizioso had the upper against those spaniards and Rossi is aging and is no more a match for Casey (even if you are not an aussie).

So you would have 12 points. I'm thinking about considering your guess as valid.

bestfit · 27 Apr 2007, 11:15 (Ref:1901581)

Results after Round 3 (Turkey)

Bestfit has taken a 1/2 point lead in the 125's over SALEEN and BOTTY, with Bleu in third.

We have a 4 way tie for the lead in 250's between Bestfit, SALEEN, Schummy and BOTTY, with Beau1 and Dani 1 point behind.

MotoGP shows a clear lead to Bestfit with a 3 way tie for 2nd between Jhansen, Knowlesy and Marcus, with Schummy close behind in 3rd.

Overall Bestfit leads (what a legend

) with a 5 point margin over Schummy, with SALEEN and BOTTY closely chasing in 3rd.

Schummy · 27 Apr 2007, 11:32 (Ref:1901600)

A sense of deja vu.

Those nice tables reminds me of Eurovison Song Contest!

Schummy · 3 May 2007, 10:26 (Ref:1905692)

Guessing for GP Chine is "officially" opened

Please, post in ascending order: 125, 250 and MotoGP

Just an example (it's my provisional guess)

125cc: Faubel, Talmacsi
250cc: Lorenzo, Dovizioso
MotoGP: Rossi, Stoner, Pedrosa

Ironic, as the organisation and political

scoring makes me think of the same thing.

Schummy · 3 May 2007, 21:29 (Ref:1906133)

But here sometimes nordics wins, it's an important difference

Dani Filth · 4 May 2007, 16:43 (Ref:1906710)

and how would you call finland ??

Schummy · 5 May 2007, 03:59 (Ref:1906920)

After 46 years they won, it is not surprising nordics sometimes have thought about leaving Eurovision

However...

Here things are very different. Blue wins regularly, and it is not surprising if Hazza consider to withdraw this game

SALEEN S7R · 5 May 2007, 08:44 (Ref:1906988)

125:Pasini, Faubel
250:Lorenzo
MotoGP:Rossi
