Kev, I don't thinks its as big an issue as you make out.
I'm not riding at Cadwell, so you've already gained one position.
And what's to say you don't beat Hawk and T5mission anyway?
Tetol is in front of you in the championship and he isn't riding.
I'm next in line and I'm not riding.
AntonyE is fighting his way to the back
Dave Reilly isn't riding.
If you finish 16th twice, you could jump 4 places.
...and what's to say there could be a few crashes or mechanicals (hope not) but you know what I mean.
Your whole arguement won't mean anything if you're caught by the hair police anyway
Chin up mate
