FANTASY GRAND PRIX 2011

[Mrs Claas]

My final predictions of the year -

1st Jason Crump (who I hope can do this for Streety)
2nd Tomasz Gollob
3rd Andreas Jonsson
4th Chris Holder

Bonus - Emil 10

Hope everyone enjoys the last GP for this season - will you be getting up to do live updates for the 1st GP next season Pere from New Zealand. I see it starts at 4pm - their time!!

[Peregrinner]

I am just working everything out now.

Getting up at 4am is possible only if Bomber is involved and gets the expected if undeserved "British Wild Pick".

I recognise that because kids all over the UK are banned from riding their motorbikes everywhere we are unlikely to get any future superstars, but maybe no British representation might wake the powers that run the sport up.

Don't worry though. Sky will insist on a British rider.

THE FINAL EVENT

The result from Gorzow is that most people enjoyed it.

Apart from those who got a little bit wet.

Bomber found that even on a good bike and riding well you still need luck which he has not yet put on his list of things to buy.

Napoleon was right .... "I dont want to know if he is good. Is he lucky?"

I witter - on to the result

Well done to the little talked about GEEZER. A good win for you.

Congratulations to Holidayfan and may I say I like that name.

The wooden spoon will be held jointly be Falconexile and Idh.

As the schoolsters love travelling it does not matter where you are we will get the spoon to you.

We do, however, now have to decide whether to cut this expensive trophy in two or come up with a method of countback that can decide a true one and only loser.

Any thoughts?

Thank you Peregrinner for all of your hard work in bringing the Grand Prix competition to us I'm sure it must take you ages to do all of the working out .
I look forward to the start of next years Grand Prix ( even if it means getting up at 4am !!!!! )
Thanks again -
Billy ( ROLL ON MARCH !!!!!!! )

[Peregrinner]

Thanks Billy, it does take time but Microsoft Excel helps.

Of course if we use the traditional alphabetical order criterion then Idh is the owner of the wooden spoon.

He can use it as a tripod for his camera at Somerset.

[Looby]

Thanks Pere for all your hard work again!! Look forward to next March although I don't think we will be having our customary Indian takeaway for the first GP though!!!

Happy Christmas and a great New Year everyone!!!!!!

[Nevs]

Once again,cheers Nigel for all the effort you have put in to running the fantasy GP for yet another season. Congrats to Holiday Fan and will be looking forward to how the wooden spoon is decided.
Cheers Pere.

[falconexile]

In the generous spirit of Christmas & New Year, I wish to bequeath my share of the wooden spoon to Idh, not least because he lives closer to Exeter than I do!

My New Year's intention : to finish the 2012 Fantasy Grand Prix at least one place off the bottom!

Happy New Year to all Falcons supporters.

[Peregrinner]

That is decided then.

I particularly want to see IDH take a photo of himself at the presentation of the spoon.

We expect photos up here soon.
