Round of San Marino (Ogie takes the lead!)

Thats twice this year equal 1st on points and not the round winner, guess I'm destined to be a gokart racer forever.

At the start of the year I took a punt that Mike Gascoyne would turn Toyota's money into something useful,

that didnt work out so I dumped them for the Aussie GP

The Rubens situation is mystifying to me, I havent quite got my head around hearing a driver of his experience make the sort of excuses he has been making, and couldnt see anything changing, so I dumped him as well.

That left me with the top 4 teams minus Rubens. And for the Aussie GP I drafted in MW to make the eight in a fit of semi-patriotism as well as a belieif in his equipment and abilitiies. (semi because I am a kiwi originally, now aussie as well, plus pom for that matter).

I didnt seee any need to change my picks for Imola (that'll learn me) I have a lot more belief than some in Schumi's abilities as a driver and a competitor (and a person) so I had Schumi for pole and the win, FA second, the remaining six including one or two others in the right spot. A complete lack of attrition in the top teams and here I am, clockless.

Congrats to the Meanest and Ogie, and here's to the rest of the year

Hardluck Redhead!

But there is some good news, you are second overall and you (and The Meanest) hold the highest score in a round so far (last year 51 was the highest score for all the rounds).

So yes you maybe clockless but you are in the running for better prizes

And your rank should change to Round Winner

Good luck

Cheers 8nPadmin, wasnt meant to sound like a complaint, rules is rules and I'm happy to live and play by them. Being clockless is not high on the scale of problems, I am surrounded by enough devices telling me the time, (and usually all of them are different), and with a 4yr old and 1yr old at home, an alarm clock is not requried either. (i.e got two like this -

)
