[Schummy]

It was an obviously difficult grid but people generally passed the test with good notes (only three negs). On the other side it was impossible to guess completely the result, the five top players got just 2 points (it is very good considering the circumstances).

BERNIE suffered a rare neg and it is no more a threat for the higher players. KWSN goes on fighting around zero , luckily it is almost sure he will end in positive .Alapan continues his quest against dwordsham , this time Ala got -1 while dword “cleverly” chose to pass and thus got a small edge this round.

dnbn only could get zero and now he shares the first position with his archrival scheivlak . Remember the untied rule is who is better classified in the former round. So if those two tie in the next GP, dnbn will get the title (that’s the reason I asked for someone who would want to help as “third person” to receive PMs with guesses ).

Sek is yet opting for the supreme title and even AcuraF1 could have a remote shot. To complete the podium there are other candidates: Schummy, Skorbi and more unlikely fisi and Mak .

Just to put things in perspective, here are the podium winners in the three former seasons:

2002 : gerry nassar - Estwald - SeanValen (a classic season )
2003 : Schummy - (BERNIE) - LB - gerry nassar (surprising season, but great gerry got another podium )
2004 : Makarias - Apex - Weasle (Mak runs circles around everybody! )

Until now, only gerry nassar has got two podiums. No one of the current three (dnbn, scheivlak, sek) have been in any podium, but Schummy, Mak, weasle and Apex have still a shot to repeat podium (but it is very unlikely).

Tomorrow I’ll open the thread for the last round. I’m still hoping someone can help me about this last round in the terms I said in the BRAZIL thread .

Thanks all, and we will meet for a last time in few days time.

[WillieF1]

Cheers Schummy!

Another positive result for me!

[Ghostrider]

I can help you out Schummy!

[Schummy]

Ghosty I would need that you receive guesses that the top players would send you by Private Messages. So guesses would be "private" in this last round for those who can fight for podium.

Thanks!

Two requests:
1. If I send you multiple PMs, only the last one should count (if meets the deadline). It's like edit.
2. Please post the guesses sometime after the deadline (can be after the race).

No problems!

dnbn is naturally nervous about getting the GTP prize , an equal to a Nobel or an Oscar!
