Quote from scotty2888 :

They never said Ostergard would loose his points Yuri. Just that he will be temporerily suspended for 2 months. Therefor there is nothing to recalculate.

I'm aware of that, I was just covering all bases.

Personally, I think that the rules which could need some re-writting is the one that concerns penalties.

It's just semantics, but at the end of the day, having a driver "excluded" from the championship, instead of "suspended", makes a huge difference as we see here.

Excluding a driver usually means - in practical terms - erasing him from the series. Having said driver on the championship tables effectivelly cancels the exclusion, as the driver is still there! Furthermore, it's a little strange to determine that an excluded driver is back after two months as it should be up to the driver himself to choose whether he wants to rejoin the series or not.

Suspending a driver, on the other hand, means the driver is still participating on the series but simply isn't allowed to take part in sanctioned events for sometime - which, in the way I see it, is what happened to Mr. Ostgaard.

In this particular case, both sides are correct, imho. If, as GreyBull [CHA] says, Ostgaard was "suspended", he's still in the top-15 of the champion ship and, not being able to attend the race, his case should be dealt with just like any other qualified driver that fails to join the race in time.

If, as need says, he was indeed excluded from the series (albeit only for two months, as odd as that sounds), there is no T. Ostgaard racing anymore and the top15 includes Mr. Marques (regardless of whether the drivers that finished behind him have had their points recalculated or not).

Just my two cents.

Those used car prices are stupidly cheaper than what we get over here, even with import taxes included. If only you drove on the other side of the roads!

Well done, all the winners.

Quote from BlueFlame :

Yes, an Open Relationship is basically where you cheat on your partner and they know about it, and don't care and may or may not do it themselves.

And what would be classed as "cheating" since, unless you are married, there was no signing of contracts?

Sex has as much to do with love as eating or sleeping. It's all about having pleasure, it's not - fundamentally - about showing to your partner how much you love them - throwing yourself under a bus to save them from death does the job.

That's only my opinion, and (having been widely criticised by my friends before) I do not expect you to agree with me, but, in the way I see it, love is the natural extention of an intense relationship (regardless of sex). That's why you love your parents and your friends.

Choosing only one partner to have sex with is much more practical in financial and admistrative terms - not to mention it's far easier to control diseases that way - and, as animals, we tend to pick the best partner available to copulate with because that will enhance the chances of our kids being at least as 'evolved' as we are.Its also obvious that having sex with someone you care about is usually nice because you know exactly what to do and what to expect from him/her, and they'll always be there when you feel the need for it, but I do not believe that of almost seven billion people in the universe, we can "love" and committ our lives to only one person.

Furthermore, I do not understand why some people are against polygamy, having been involved in several relationships in their youth. Makes adolescence sound like an open-source demo to the proprietary software of adult life. You can date, kiss and have sex with as many people as possible, but in order to activate "lovecode" you need to purchase an individual license.

FWIW, my old 5-a-side team was called I'm Here Only Because My Computer Is Broken... F.C.

Quote from BlueFlame :

A relationship should always be CLOSED, if it's open then you may aswell not have a relationship with that person and just sleep with them, because that's all an open relationship is...

So your definition of 'relationship' is simply having exclusive acess to one's private parts, I take it?

When will the poll be closed?

Quote from EliteAti :

Their main is creating Tires and Tennis Racquets are just merchandise.

And do companies only advertise their best-selling products?

Who's to say, anyway, that there isn't a possibility of one of the two brands being personal sponsors while the other is a team sponsor (e.g. Button's Monster Energy Drink and Brawn's TNT Energy Drink in Interlagos)?

There you go.

In case you can't see it (and you really can't in the XRG and XRR), all three have "Redemption or Damnation? The Choice is Yours to Make!" on the back of the cars.

Quote from macsy :

I don't think you fully understand the concept of reflections. It's more than just flipping the image around. But I'm digging the sepia effect.

I think I do a little bit, but just couldn't be arsed working on the perspective of every reflection at 3 am. :sleep1: Is this better for you?
