2007 Grand Prix Competition

[Steve Turner 0]

The Slovenian GP Final sees new World Champion Nicki Pedersen take the win from Scott Nicholls. A richly deserved podium place for Rune Holta, who finishes well clear of Jason Crump.

 

With only the unknown quantity of the indoor Gelsenkirchen track to come...and the all-important final race of the 2007 World Championship...the penultimate leaderboard looks like this...

Okay, so first the positives...

 

sccoter keeps the lead for the 5th successive time...and picks up the biggest profit from the round - 1 million

He's also now the only person to gain points in every round so far !

 

T.N.T. was next best scorer as he takes 865,000 to move into 3rd

Easyrider earns 266,202

Chris wins 200,000 but will be disappointed with that...

and Jo_1515 gains a healthy 180,000 Credits

 

SuzieQ, Timbo, pirate ewan, notintheboxbutonthebend and Phil were actually the only 5 players to get two finalists !

SuzieQ, pirate paul and sjw ministerofport were the only ones brave enough to back Holta's impressive charge to the Final.

 

Just over 1.4 million Credits gained from this GP - not surprisingly a bit low, considering the facts below...

The negatives...

 

20 people backed AJ, despite the warnings that he was riding at number 4...this season's jinxed position ! He rode well enough but could do nothing about the curse...

24 people backed Matej Zagar, despite knowing how poor he's been all season !

2 people...smiles and the current World No.1 GLSDiamond backed BOTH OF THEM !!!

 

davidadam loses 700,000 and a place in the Top 20

Jacques drops 400,000, but stays near the top after a great season overall

BluePusher bins 182,000

DutchGrasstrack throws away 118,000

and this competition's finest lady, London Witch, says goodbye to 99,000 Credits

 

SCB did well to only lose 2 Credits. But unfortunately for him, it was his only 2 Credits...so he's out

huttski also leaves us after seeing Bjarne and Greg fail to go the distance. 6000 Credits gone and it's all over

Hard luck guys...

 

So that's it...only one round to go. But with the last race giving you the chance to double your final score, it's all to play for, right down the scoreboard...

Seeya next weekend to start the betting !

Bjarne Pedersen, what a stupid line in the semi!! Argh!

[Sandie 53]

I think (but not to sure) that for once I backed two riders who both made the final

[Steve Turner 0]

You could'a mentioned that before I chose him.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You were definitely warned...yet you chose to disbelieve !

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Not in this game you didn't...you went for Scott and some old bloke called Leigh

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Thank you -

I couldnt remember if I went for the easy points in Nicki or take a chance wit the injury hit Leigh.

But at least Scott made me a few points!!1

[MattyHart 0]

Well i started crap and i finished crap,thank god for my mid season form.

[T.N.T. 355]

SCB did well to only lose 2 Credits. But unfortunately for him, it was his only 2 Credits...so he's out

 

Scott finally reaches a GP Final and the Welsh Wizard doesn't have the faith in him that an ardent Wolves fan does

 

 

Cheers Scott for getting me back in the top three, shame I picked the wrong one out of Zagar, Bjarne and Holta who were all big point gambles.

[Black Panther 0]

24 people backed Matej Zagar, despite knowing how poor he's been all season !

 

That would have been me then amongst others

 

Time for a final big push then

[DutchGrasstrack 804]

From place 15 to 67.. ouch !

[buzzybee 0]

yay!!

 

im making a last minute surge for the top 10

 

good result though. Always knew i could count on the bees man

[London Witch 57]

24 people backed Matej Zagar, despite knowing how poor he's been all season !

 

Had to be done, anything other than a place in the top 3 is failure for me. Wouldn't have had any chance by going for the safer 1 point options.

 

Still I've blown it now anyway

Never mind LDubya, a late change of plan means you still have an outside chance of a Top 3 finish well a remote possibility would be more accurate, but you can do anything, so Good Luck !

 

(you should have backed Scott anyway !)
