I still think this was a good call. Bottas had the pace to be on pole, if he hadn't kept messing up the final turn on every run...

I find it remarkable (and a good sign for the season) that in the first three races no one placed a joker on the quali winner and this weekend we get three at once, all on a different driver.

Because Alonso did start his formation lap, I wasn't entirely sure during the race if it was going to be classified as a DNS or DNF. But yes, DNS it was. And rightly so, or that Palmer/Grosjean mess-up would have gone unpunished. That I picked Palmer as my first man out has nothing to do with it, of course. :smug:

It's bound to be right one of these races. Unless that's the same race that a McLaren scores their first point as well.

:lol: you got him for the qualifying disappointment. I luckly made a switch from Palmer to Alonso at the right time.

I think this year Joker entry going to make difference as it shown in last race as I leapfrog from last to first. I already lost Joker after qualification, so I think it's better to have the Joker entry for race, so at least we can have some false hope till the race is over. :-P

To calculate his performance for questions 4-7 his current ranking will be 22nd.

Only for Quali Surprise, I suspect. He would need to finish in the top 10 to qualify as Race Overachiever.
And he's probably only one of many favorites for First Man Out.
