they were both aware there were 3 races that day but chose a different strategy. you dont have to win everything to come first in a series. look at how some world champions have ridden in the past. happy to take 2nd or third in the knowledge that to try and push for first is foolhardy. |
Lol! Tell that to Rossi!
The point I'm trying to illustrate is that the results would have been no different if Rider A had not come off / crashed / engine seized / got punted off - the difference is the points at the end of the round.
I'm unsure which way I would "vote" if we get asked. I'm just trying to play Devil's Advocate here by putting a counter argument across to making this extra (bonus!) round a points-scoring event.
