You think its silly, but its fully logical. Lets break down your points for you
But the TITC is an extremely competitive event in quite unusual track conditions.
Its not like this is his first year in this event, Also track condition is the same for everyone. So are you blaming on the competitiveness of the event and "unusual" track condition for Alex's poor performance?
The guys on the podium are one notch above Alex and are always at the top, regardless of conditions.
What is your point you are trying to make here? Yeah, Alex probably couldnt beat Michal, Bruno, or Marc ever, But what about the 27 other drivers ahead of him this year?
I know we all enjoy seeing a bad result for XRAY (and speaking as someone who has run their cars in the past and would run them again in the future, the arrogance that drips out of most of their activities makes it easy to root for their downfall) - but this is just one meeting.
This has nothing to do with bashing Xray. but the immediate effect of one man leaving have on Alex's results in modified.
And in a market where the XRAY is not as common as it is in the Western world.
Again, what is the point of this statement. Just because you think Xray is not popular in Asia that excuses Alex to be dead last in C main when he should be in A??? Also, Im not sure where you got your facts but I can guarantee you that Xray is not as uncommon in Asia as you think.
They have just come off a bunch of wins in other categories at other events, even without Bruno.
Are you talking about
Adam Izsay, Martin Hudy and David Ehrbar who had a 1,2,3 lockout for 17.5T at
MiBo just the week prior? Adam came home with A3 and Martin was C2 in OBL so....
Drivers win races, not cars, I think we all know that.
So Alex, as a driver, with a world champion worthy car, did not win this race. Got it.
