Do people actually take the pairs seriously then, I always thought it was just a bit of a joke tbh. As is every single competition these teams compete in including the league!! Its all made up week to week anyway theres zero credibility in winning any of them… i do note you only seem to find fault in comps Poole dont win though… almost like you make it up to suit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also the BSN commentary team were an absolute shambles tonight, bordering on disgraceful. Hilarious nonsense about BSN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,913 Posted September 1, 2023 Outstanding boys, best team there on the night, toughest draw and still make it. Some shocking attitudes at the start, what point do riders get fined for non trying? Just as minor point how did we finish 3rd but get 2 and 4 in both finals? Bit weird but we'll take it!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fastest winning time maybe, although that is a bit counter intuitive in a pairs competition you can win without either of your pair crossing the line first in any race. A race off, but that causes tyre disparity issues Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A race off, but that causes tyre disparity issues Yeah, time, I'd happily go with that, at least it's performance based, I can't be doing with coin tosses once a competition has started, should easily be doable now with transponders... or why have transponders?
