OlympicIRL 4,769 Posted August 5, 2018 #133 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Juste maintenant , heywoodu a déclaré: A1GP Too bad Ireland won that right in the year when there were fewer and fewer teams and several rounds were cancelled due to a lack of interest, but still Although I wouldn't count that as a true team sport, just like snooker and golf Yeah but all the best teams still competed, right? Or in other words, shut up heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does this suggest a Dutch win by 2.5 goals is the most likely? Edited August 5, 2018 by OlympicIRL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This says you get 2.28 times your stakes if the Netherlands win while taking the 'handicap' in account. This is usually a half number of goals, so in the case of a Dutch win with one or two goals difference (or of course an Irish win), Ireland +2.5 wins, whereas with a Dutch win by three or more goals, the Netherlands -2.5 wins Basically in this specific case the bookmakers are saying Ireland is more likely than not for Ireland to keep the difference in check (no more than three goals), but a two goal win for the Dutch team seems the most likely outcome.

I loved it, even my Mam loved it too It made a lot of Dutch people, including me, hate Jos Verstappen: he was sort of a national hero due to his F1 podium many years before (as only Dutchman ever) and in the A1 he would finally race in Zandvoort. Around 110.000 people got tickets (considering Zandvoort is full to the limits when there's 90.000 people that's quite a lot)....and then the week before the event he was like "nah the team manager didn't pay my salary, I'm not driving" Luckily his replacement (Jeroen Bleekemolen) had one of the best races of his career and more than made up for Verstappen's "fuck you" in terms of excitement.
