Only worrying point could be knock out cup. So may need to mimic icemanjee's picks if time allows

Rosberg
Ricciardo

Yeah Nico seems to be winning on tracks he hasn't before so I thought I'll go with him.
And I think we've just guaranteed it will be Ros,Ham,Ves or Ham,Ros,Ric now.
Ah you know you want me to win really, cant let robins13 have all the titlesJenson's Understeer wrote:Knockout Cup: Semi Final update #3!
#1 robins13 1 vs. 0 #8 icemanjee1 (USA: 14-0)
#5 Jenson's Understeer 1 vs. 1* #6 Black_Flag_11 (USA: 0-14)
The final race of the semi final saw two perfect podiums and two failures to score. #1 seed robins13 put an end to icemanjee1's stubborn resistance thanks to a comprehensive 14-0 victory in America, meaning a league-and-cup double could now be just two races away. The other match-up had looked to be Jenson's Understeer's to lose, and lose it he did, thanks to a no-point performance in Texas coupled with Black_Flag_11's perfect podium. It means that Black_Flag_11 advances to the final by virtue of the perfect podium tiebreaker, leaving us with the following final two:
#1 robins13 vs. #6 Black_Flag_11
In the knockout cup's debut year, Robins13 is now on the verge of a historic double triumph. All that is left standing is Black_Flag_11, who has climbed up to 2nd overall in the individual standings and could yet spoil the celebrations. Good luck to everyone in the final not named Black_Flag_11

I'm honestly pretty tiddled off about this. I've lost a solo perfect podium here, and my title hopes have also gone up in smoke over in the Pick 10 competition as a result. There probably won't be an update today, but we'll see how I'm feeling later. For now, I'd rather forget about it.Mayhem wrote:Exediron wrote:Phew!

Fingers crossed there will be no penalty.
Same, I was thinking that even if Vettel did get a penalty it would help me out in this even though I don't agree with it. Never mind.Lotus49 wrote:Aarrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh!.Black_Flag_11 wrote:Oh damn I forgot I put Vettel for 3rd, I thought I had Ricciardo!Lotus49 wrote:Dammit, completely forgot that Seb and Dan are under investigation, pleaaaaaasssse no penalty!!

10s Penalty and 2 penalty points for Seb. Drops to 5th. According to Chris Medland on Twitter
Absolutely gutted.
This was very nearly the prediction of the weekend, in a particularly sick way!Exediron wrote:Now that I've done that, you know HAM/ROS/VET will actually happen for the first time all year.
