 First race in years and looks like it'll be a podium once they sort the
cheats out. Great effort! ;)

Obviously it's 3rd. When someone finish 1st, they get 1st place. When they
finish 2nd, they get 2nd place. But when they comes 3rd, they get on the
podium. Of course we all know that they all are on "the podium", but think
of it. If u raced and became 3rd, you would certainly describe it as "on the
podium" whereas if u came 2nd you had to say 2nd, just to distance youirself
from 3rd :-)­

It's the same in football. If in a WC you comes 2nd, you reached the finals.

Oh, okay then.

I'm with you sooooo far...
But when they comes 3rd, they> get on the podium.

but firstly, don't they all get on the podium. Or secondly, do you mean
third gets on the podium first.
Of course we all know that they all are on "the> podium"

Ah, I thought as much.

But then they would ask where on the podium and I would say third and they
would say well why didn't you just say so and I would have to repeat your
explanation. No I think I'd say third or "I lost"
whereas if u came 2nd you> had to say 2nd, just to distance youirself from 3rd :-)­>

Well thank you for that, may I say totally unexpected, reply. I am not sure
if we hit a language barrier or took a sense of humour bypass but it was
some trip. ;)
