How is it a false advantage? Kerr has closed in on James' championship points lead fair and square. It's unfortunate James will miss this round but that's the way the cookie crumbles. Drivers miss rounds all the time due to injury, illness, budget problems etc - it's part of racing that luck and circumstance play a big part in your success.

no Sgrok , i didnt mean it like that .

what i meant was , its always better for the championship to be won by both drivers competing all rounds thats all. If James misses a round ( 2 races ), that gives Robbie a extra advantage as any place he gets is pure points gained against a driver that cant do anything about it on the track , that has nothing to do with ontrack racing...thats all . Robbie will still earn all the points he gets in the races this weekend with out a doubt , but James wont be able to fight back this weekend thats all .

Robbie has earned everything he's got so far this season , but the points gap between the drivers will be changed not by both racing this weekend , because 1 of the drivers isnt there.
What makes it worse IMO , is that James accident had nothing to do what so ever with his F3 season.

Im not taking away anything from what Robbie has acheived at all so far this year , but i would have rather seen him beat James this weekend fair and square on the track rather than 1 of the drivers not even being allowed to race.

Its not Robbies fault at all of course , its just one of those things , but i bet Robbie himself would agree it would feel even better if he has whipped James on the track again this weekend .
