MotoGP Fantasy League

I need big points this weekend

Thanks for all you do with the league Ben, much appreciated.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BEN @ May 18 2006, 02:43 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Anyway, its all updated and team changes are allowed till tomorrow morning (sorry for the short notice!).

Same position 1 & 2, but I think The Doctor moved up into 3rd spot, you wernt there before were you bud?
No Sir...I jumped up from 6th WHOO HOO...fanfreakintastic...

Thanks for all your effort with this Ben.
This is a lot of fun.

Nevermind....

thanks ben!

my offer to help you still stand you know, I can start helping you after mugello, because
I'm in the middle of my final exams right now I'm realy nervous

is today the last day that we can make changes in our team before le mans?

edit!: never mind just read on the clinica mobile site that nicky has the flu, so I guess I stay with MM this race

Great, from 42nd to 49th. Not entirely convinced with my team, don't know what to change though

What a top team!

Rider 1: Nicky Hayden
Rider 2: Toni Elias
Team: LCR Honda
Engine: None
Tyres: Michelin

Bit of a risk, replaced Stoner with Hayden (obvious choice) and Vermeulen with Elias. (not sure about that one, but we'll see, hopefully Elias does well at Le Mans). My engine is now a Not Racing, teams still LCR in the hope that Casey Stoner does well, and Michelin tyres aren't changing. Pretty major reshuffle there, opinions?

Hayden should do well for you.
Not sure about Elias

People said that Elias usually does well at Le Mans, so I figured I'd hope and pray he does

ahhh good point..


Love your AV...Burnsey was (is) one of my favorite drivers

HOLY .... I`M 12TH!
I`ve been ignoring this thing since Elias ploughed down Rossi on the first corner of the first race. Man I didn`t realize how well I could do with Rossi. I can afford Honda lumps and everything! I might take an interest in this now!

Thanks for understanding all & the nice comments

The manager is now locked till the end of Le Mans

M - Thanks for the offer I've actually cut down the amount of time taken to update the league, cause I found that motogp.com post all the combined team points & rider points on various PDF's - so I just print these out now & I dont need to work out the scoring manually (except the tires, buts thats easy). So the league update only takes about 15 mins now - the back-up takes around an hour before hand (coz we have so much data on here!)

So thanks, but its much simpler now

I would have thought it would have been best holding onto Stoner? He's a hot points scorer & has realy helped alot of teams get points!

Sorry about the link to everyone's team also, its gone and we (me & the script writer) do not know why! Its been looked into

Right, Elias is out. I'm considering my options between Hopper and Stoner, if I take Stoner I'll probably switch LCR Honda (hopefully to Fortuna if I can afford it)

For God`s sake I`m paying 45 mill for this guy and he`s had as many DNFs as Melandri`s had wins. Bugger him I`m hiring Pedrosa as soon as I can

I had a great weekend points and trackside wise so fingers crossed I will have moved up a few places

Hey Wes,

Dont forget to make a post about your Le Mans trip bud....hope you had a good time!

I'll be updating the league tonight after work

At least both my riders finished the race this week in 6th & 8th which could have been much higher still if it wernt for VR

Shame for the De Puniet fans..

I am sooooo glad I dropped De Puniet a few races ago...He was my main rider. That boy has No luck what so ever.
