San Marino Grand Prix,
Su Apr 24 – Live on ITV
I have noticed this before in GP events when drivers
have retired near the end of races and been classified in
the results. I believe it's done because in the old days you
could have a leading driver crash on the last lap and yet
still finish technically ahead of lapped drivers and score
points.
I am not sure of the exact ruling - personally considering
that there were about 4 or 5 laps and about 10 minutes left
to go and both ended up buried in the wall, subsequently
passed on the road by all remaining finishers including the
Minardis. Under these circumstances It would be most harsh
on people who had backed them not to finish to have them
classed as "finishers".
I've backed both of them not to finish, and I'll be a bit
miffed if I don't get paid out.
backed a number of drivers anticipating a wet race, and
things didn't go as well as hoped for due to the lack of any
additional rain. In my case These 2 going out makes the
difference between a slight loss or a substantial gain. I
fear the worst though.
I'm not a small player, and yes I should have been more
professional and read the rules, especially after making a
fortune out of the Indianapolis race, by doing just that.
But we can all have lapses, and fortunately on this occasion
it hasn't cost me money. In all honesty though I didn't
bother to read the rules. Why?
Because in truth it seems to obvious to me. "Will they
Finish"? Come on how clear should it need to be. A car
starts the race and doesn't finish.
People don't have to be smart and quote rules, 99% of well
educated people wouldn't think the rules need to be read on
a market which SHOULD be clear.
