If Tommy Searle's bike had survived the last two laps of the first moto and he'd managed to stay in 4th, Team GB would have finished the day on 37 points with 4-4-6-10-13 moto scores. France would have been bumped from 35 to 36 and Italy would be bumped from 37 to 39, putting GB in second place just a single point behind France.
Just puts a bit of perspective on how well the British boys rode on the day. I don't think anyone would have predicted a 4th from Searle or Watson before the event. Just unfortunate that Searle's bike didn't make it to the flag.
Yes I know it's irrelevant at this point and you could come up with 10 other hypothetical scenarios for other teams but it's certainly interesting.

If Vlaanderen didn’t DNF in race one NL would probably end up with 17 points, winning MXoN by a mile.
It didn’t happen though.

Searle had Tomac's number all weekend it seemed. Seemed like Eli was always behind Tommy, and the gap never realy changed. Searle was obviously gutted at the DNF, and rightfully so
I am not even sure he has a team next season ... hoping he stays with Dixon (when it is not muddy!)

France for the fifth year. They’re doin something right....and they don’t even need Marv.
Ironically it's mostly Americans with the stupid responses when their result wasn't affected by bad luck at all, just bad riding
