Don’t think Doyle will get one,but too be fair injuries have been his downfall still can put himself about.He certainly put up a better show than Lambert this season,Lambert will get one if he doesn’t qualify though.

[Gavan]

Take out Emil and Laguta and is Doyle one of the best 16 riders in the world?? 

Without injury he would clearly be 9th at the worst this season 

Hate the idea of ‘we must have new blood’ ….. not for me if they aren’t as good

For it to be a tie, at least one of them would need to fail to get to the final plus the other would need to come fourth.

And plenty of scenario’s if both fail to reach the final.

What if they were both to finish much lower down in the points with Kurtz 3 points higher than Zmarzlik, Kurtz 13th and Zmarzlik 16th for example, or 12th and 15th, 11th and 14th etc. etc.

I know it's not likely, but I kind of want the following to happen to show the flaw in the scoring system to the organisers (so they fix it).

What if Zmarzlik & Kurtz meet in LCQ1. Kurtz is 2nd which means 11 or 12 points, Zmarzlik is 3rd (9 or 10 points) or 4th (7 or 8 points).

The world title would then be decided in LCQ2, the finishing order of 4 riders who cannot become world champion, would determine wether Zmarzlik or Kurtz wins the title!

I challenge anyone to explain why this scenario is the best way to score the GPs.

It’s just farcical

I agree he shouldn’t of got one but I don’t think he has disgraced himself, has had some good race wins along the way 

Agree and probably should have had another win and an LCQ place on Saturday.

I'd give Doyle a wildcard if they are still against Laguta and Sayfutdinov, but would put those 2 in front of him for sure.

[szkocjasid]

I'm sure Lambert will get a wildcard, Doyle probably less likely if he's the 4th best Aussie. I'm not saying it's right, but nationality makes a difference to who gets a pick.

Doyle yes, still has the hunger and ruthlessness to mix it up,tai no, I’m no fan of woffinden but I am happy to see him back after injury but I don’t see him as a world force anymore, maybe a wild card for a round to show appreciation for his contribution to the GPs like they did with Gollob

I tend to agree although I'm not a fan of either I believe Doyle should get one more W/C

Top seven qualify , all the rest have to go to challenge or challenge qualifier ….that could mix it up
