Alright, alright, enough speculating on what those guys did, didn't do or should have done; let's start speculating about this weekend!
As is stands, Mario Mola leads Jonny B the
WTS Rankings by 235 points; it's a solid lead but with
extra points available for the Grand Final, it's not unassailable by any means. The points awarded for the top 5 placings are 1200, 1110, 1027, 950 and 879 so if Mola finishes 3rd or better then he can't be caught, but if someone other than the Brownlees gets themselves into the mix up there then it could be all to play for! I think it's time to fire up the
"Should Alistair let Jonny win" debate again...
The race for the women's title is even closer with Flora Duffy leading Gwen in the overall rankings by a meagre 166 points; if Gwen wins (and let's be honest, she probably will) then second place is still good enough for Duffy to hold on to top spot for the series but that is far from a certainty.
I, for one, am very excited; can't wait for the action at the weekend!
