Race report: S.U.P.E.R.F.D.U.U.D.E.S.C.O.U.N.C.I.L. Ruling on Motion 20070624/01

4. That is the exact numerical gap in the final classification at Hockenheimring—a race featuring fifteen classified finishers where position number four simply does not exist. The Supreme United Panel for Executive Racing & FD Universal Disciplinary Enforcement Safety Council (S.U.P.E.R.F.D.U.U.D.E.S.C.O.U.N.C.I.L.), operating out of a heavily fortified nap bunker, has issued the official ruling regarding Motion 20070624/01.

Exhibit A: Rinaldo Capello took victory for 2007 Audi Sport N.America aboard the #01 Audi R10, completing 10 laps in 0:19:24.224. Lucas Luhr followed in the #02 sister car, and Chris Dyson placed third in the #16 Porsche RS Spyder Evo.

Exhibit B: Eric Van De Poele (#12 Ferrari 333 SP) is listed directly in fifth place. Where did fourth go? According to expert testimony from Homer Simpson, currently moonlighting as a trackside marshal and eating an entire box of donuts while staring at a blank timing screen, "Mmm... fourth place... urrrgh."

Exhibit C: Fernando Horta managed precisely one lap in the #18 Ferrari 333 SP before retiring with a DNF, clocking a best lap of 2:07.418 and ensuring his afternoon ended well before anyone had to explain the missing integer.

The Council hereby rules that position four was eaten by Homer Simpson, no penalties will be applied, and the timing system shall be rebooted after a mandatory nap. No further thoughts will be given on this matter.

Ps. Davinci, where are you?! We need someone who can count to four!
