It’s not exactly rocket science...

From what I gather, Mladen spent years working abroad, mostly as an employee rather than the one signing the checks...
Because of that, Mladen expects signed contracts to actually mean something and assumes he'll get exactly what's promised on paper...
I wouldn't call him stupid, just totally oblivious to how things work around here. He’s pretty naive when it comes to doing business in our neck of the woods...

Then you’ve got our local boss, Štetner, who—much like a huge chunk of the newcomers lately—probably only cares about how much fun he can have with someone else's money. Contracts and paying people? Not really his priority...

fadedwalker18 said:It can't be that straightforward. You're telling me Štetner takes the money, keeps his 51%, and Jergović doesn't involve his lawyers or anything? He knows how business works—he isn't some kid in preschool, after all.

There's clearly something else going on here, we just haven't pinned it down yet... 🤔
All we have left is pure speculation. It’s a shame for Mladen Jergović and his F1 legacy (regardless of what anyone thinks of it). Meanwhile, I.B. is probably out somewhere celebrating... 🎉🐔 still convinced he was right about M. J. 🤦

Hold on, you actually think Štetner is the kind of guy who plays by the contract? 🤔
He definitely doesn't look like that type to me. Regardless of a mountain of paperwork or fancy lawyers, I wouldn't touch a business deal with him for anything...

Because having a contract and lawyers telling me I'm 100% right
doesn't mean much if I have to spend years chasing Štetner through the courts after everything goes south...

Though honestly, I'm not sure I'd want to get into any business deals with Jerg either...
That sounds like a massive headache waiting to happen....

What makes you think Jerga actually knows how to handle business? 🤷
Based on what I've seen in the media, I'd go much further and say he has no clue—and I mean really, really no clue...

fadedwalker18 said:Do you really think that's the ONLY thing? It's not like this guy has been coasting through life on an empty tank, right? Or is he...?

What do you mean "not" 😁

Do a little homework on the timeline...
Mlađo buys 49% of the site, and then suddenly Štetner is back on the circuit doing interviews with Hamilton.😁

Look, I don't follow GP1 religiously, but damn, it feels like once Mlađo bought in, they started showing up at races they never even touched before.🤣

Terry Carter2 said:Seriously, what is wrong with you!?
Instead of congratulating me on the win, you're just getting worked up!
😁

I congratulated you ages ago.
😁Now I'm just annoyed.
🤣

I am absolutely livid right now.😳

My predictions are basically perfect, and I’m winning every single matchup except my own.😠
Plus, I’m cheating myself because my own pick is just the two Red Bull Racing drivers swapped around.🙂

Just my luck...
I should have hit submit a few minutes before the deadline...

Next time, I'll actually use my brain. 😁

Terry Carter2 said:I have no idea what kind of transcription you're talking about, but I am seriously itching for these results!
😁

I'll find a way to get back at you for that, just you wait.😬

There's nothing to wait for. Our predictions are basically identical, except you've got Max 4th and Ricciardo 3rd, while I'm looking at Max 3rd and Ricciardo 4th—just enough to clinch the win. Everything else is exactly the same.😁

Man, I totally missed the drama on the forum today. 🙂

😬Looks like all that typing finally paid off for you, WO.
👍Congrats.

Susan Jones8 said:So, Jerg has vanished from the columnist list on GP1. Please, everyone, let's observe a moment of silence... mwahahaha.

Hold on, did Štetner screw him over for cash again? 😵
I seriously can't believe he's still this naive. 🤦

Mladen Jergović, former Formula 1 broadcast producer and one of the biggest experts in the sport has bought a 49% stake in the GP1.hr project from Davorin Štetner, owner of Kreator Grupa!

Oh Jerg, Jerg... 49% isn't 51%. 🤦

Terry Carter2 said:E TBF, you're finished now!
😁

Settling up at the OK Corral🙂🤣

Since qualifying was last night, we could probably watch the whole thing at some local pub...
loser pays for the round, winner does too, I guess. 😁

I'm just not sure if anyone even carries the Formula 1 broadcast around here. 🤷

How many mods (current or former) even made it to the quarterfinals? 😁

What are the rules here anyway?
Dammit, I have absolutely no clue how this knockout stage actually works. 🤔
Plus, there aren't even any rules listed in the opening post. 😕

First off, Štetner’s massive screw-up is thinking he was the one who did the interview with Hamilton, rather than Jerg...
I bet he took that personally enough to hold a grudge until the end of time. 🤣

The second screw-up is his refusal to write any praise for Hamilton, which basically makes everything he writes pointless...

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't write a single thing until next season starts if Hamić fails to snatch the title from Rosberg...

graniteharbor502 said:How many mods (current or former) actually made it to the quarterfinals? 😁

Look, out of 11 players, 6 of them are mods or ex-mods... so it’s not exactly shocking that they're clogging up the quarterfinals. 😁
Still, it's pretty wild that every single one of them pulled through...
