So I for 1 hope Hamilton makes a good 2nd half of season showing just like every previous year he has been in F1 and snatches a 2nd crown..................

Does sound like a publicity stunt to me...
IS200 Sport - Sold
Mazda 6 MPS - Zoom Zoom!
Modifications
Completed:
Currently 280bhp/295lbft; 3" Meercat custom exhaust; KW Suspension; FMIC; SSP; HPFP; Custom Stainless Steel Dials - for the moment, the only set in the world!! (Till the group buy for MPSOC anyway :lol: )
In Progress:
E-Tuning remap ongoing via Cobb Accessport; Braided brake lines; Stubby aerial; Tinted repeaters and sidelights; 3 Port Boost Control Solenoid; 3" HTP Intake
Are these the same people who are giving back losing bets on tonights Champions League ?

If Barcelona win this match in normal time, Paddy Power will refund all losing 1st/Last Goalscorer, Correct Score and Scorecast singles on the match. Conditions
so its not normal "utd to win" bets

So it has to be about publicity - although again I'm not entirely sure what the angle is......
2002 '02' IS200 SE Auto - DVD Satnav with Voice Activation - [COLOR="Blue"]Strathcaron Blue - Parking Sensors - 5000K HIDs with Anti-Glare Bulbs - PIAA 6500K Main Beams - LED Sidelights - Mirror/Sunroof Closure - TTE Styling Kit - 18" Styling Kit Alloys with nitrogen filled Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric Tyres - Bluetouch Multimedia Kit - Gromaudio AUX in - Black painted calipers with silver Lexus decals - 12 LED Dome Light - 96 LED Boot Light - Stainless Steel Sport Sill Plates - PIAA Silicone Wipers[/COLOR]
Don't know much about betting, but paying out now and paying out at the end would have no real impact on costs to them right?

16-04-2018, 06:40 AM #8Not really, because ive bet theyve made that up on people betting on others already cause you can still bet on that market for all drivers, but they wont pay out till the end of the season.

There can't be any financial gain though from paying out early, I'm struggling to understand what the publicity gain is? Is it that people will suddenly think they should go and bet on Vettel as Paddy Power thinks it's a sure thing?

How much would newspaper advertising cost? im guessing its pricey for a national when people will prob skip by it. Now they are in a story.
And if someone then wants a bet, what do you go to first? a name you know, "ah paddy power, ive heard of them, seem a good company, ill use them"
thats my take anyway
