Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
My thought process was - if I try and pick riders I think will win, they won't, so I went Zarco, because he does a good Gallic shrug, Rins and Mir because they used to ride for Suzuki and Jorge Martin because I couldn't think of anyone elseweeksy wrote: ↑Mon Mar 27, 2023 2:50 pmWill probably work better than mineLe_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Mon Mar 27, 2023 12:59 pm Cheesy Wotsits are go - picked with no other reasoning beyond I find that rider less obnoxious than the other ones.

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
The obvious rider to go for would be Pecco, but at £3.5 million I'm not convinced he's that good value. It also means that you have a lot less to spend on other riders. I think Jorge Martin is a good shout, but then I would as he's in my team.

Team Skub riders all managed to stay on this round and allow me to enjoy (however brief) my time at the top of the table.

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
I was certain I'd swapped out Luca Marini for Marco Bezzecchi and was feeling pretty smug as Bez splashed to victory, only to find when logging in that Marini was still in my team.

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
I have both and was so smug today that Bezzecchi won, handing me double points, only to realise that Marini was my second double pointer. Oh well, Marini did me the business yesterday.mangocrazy wrote: ↑Sun Apr 02, 2023 10:48 pm I was certain I'd swapped out Luca Marini for Marco Bezzecchi and was feeling pretty smug as Bez splashed to victory, only to find when logging in that Marini was still in my team.

As for Pecco, the daft twat's mind must have started to drift and think of the ho's he could hire with his third place bonus

Dang it - swapped Viñales in for Bastianini & stuck with Mir. At least I had VR46 as team.

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
I need to have words with two members of my team taking each other out. It's the naughty step for them both,if it happens again. They lost me the lead to that twat @westers151

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
Considering i had Vinales and MArtin, the weekend didn't go quite as badly as i thought.. I'm not exactly at the top, but i'm in the melting pot still.

Re: Fantasy MotoGP 2023...
I've changed my line up, the finger of doom now points at Marini and Bezzecchi
