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.
