Especially Dan because Seb was typed by everyone. No problem with him...(shame for engine problem, of course)

Did OK, middle of the road I reckon with everyone taking a hit on Seb.

Hope Poker is alright, I noticed PF1 Mod posted predictions on his behalf earlier in the week.

A pretty meh performance for me I think.

Having finally won a race, I will no longer refer to Seb as SPINbastian Vettel.

Looks like 142 for me. I feel like that ought to be okay-ish, considering Seb and Ricciardo going out. Everyone will have had Seb, but maybe not Danny Ric.

I was looking preeeeetty sweet until Seb's DNF, then it all went to the land of crapolla..

Unofficially believe it or not, I think Robins13 has won this round as well. Apparently, 13 isn't an unlucky number for him.

Round 16: Sochi, Russia

The start of the race saw pole man Leclerc lead away from fellow front row starter Hamilton but with the longest straight on the calendar leading to the first corner, Leclerc positioned his car to the left so as his teammate Vettel and not Hamilton would get the benefit from his tow as prearranged by Ferrari.

This enabled Vettel to pull easily clear of Hamilton, Leclerc also left the inside line of the corner unguarded for Vettel to pass and take the lead of the race, again this to ensure that the Ferrari's would lead at the front after the first lap.

The deal in place was then for Vettel to allow Leclerc back into the lead a few laps into the race but when the order came Vettel declined claiming the gap to Hamilton in third place was insufficient for the Ferrari cars to be losing time in changing the race order.

The order came again some laps later after the gap to Hamilton had been increased but again Vettel declined the order to change positions saying that Leclerc needed to get closer to him before that may happen, at this stage of the race Vettel looked to be quicker than Leclerc and was slowly pulling further away, Leclerc wasn't happy because he had played his part in allowing Vettel past, Ferrari reassured Leclerc that things would be sorted out which seemed to calm Leclerc.

Leclerc was the first Ferrari to be pitted on lap 22 going from the soft tyres onto medium tyres, perhaps concerned that he might be undercut by his teammate a lap later Vettel asked to be pitted for fresh tyres because his rear tyres were losing grip. However Ferrari left him out saying that they were concerned about losing the lead to Mercedes if a safety car came out, Mercedes who were going to be running their first stint much longer on the harder medium tyres.

Vettel was eventually pitted onto the medium tyres on lap 26, rather conveniently it seems losing position to Leclerc, however the very next lap Vettel pulled off the track with a MGU-K failure which brought out the VSC. The two Mercedes cars of Hamilton and Bottas immediately pitted onto the soft tyres, the much shorter loss of time when pitting under the VSC allowed Hamilton to take the lead of the race whilst Leclerc was now second in front of Bottas.

During the VSC period Russell speared off into a barrier after suffering with a front brake failure, this then brought out a full safety car and a decision was then to pit Leclerc back onto soft tyres which now put him in third place behind Bottas, it had been decided that Leclerc would not be able to pass Hamilton for the in whilst on the slower medium tyres.

The strategy however didn't work for Leclerc as he was unable to pass Bottas so at the finish Hamilton won the race from Bottas and Leclerc, Verstappen finished in a lonely 4th place after starting 9th with a grid penalty, his teammate Albon was a creditable 5th after starting from the pitlane, a result of missing qualifying after crashing in FP3. Best of the rest in 6th place was again Sainz whilst Hamilton got the bonus point for fastest lap.

Well I guess they say better late then never, anyway you're probably aware I've had one or two problems this past week or so, the upshot of which is that I've decided to stand down from running this competition, I'm sure there's an able body to take over the reigns, good luck to all competitors.

Sorry to hear that. I would offer to take over for the rest of the year, but I'm already frequently late with the Top Three updates, so somebody else would probably be a better choice!

If no one else steps forward I can do it, however.

Sorry to hear that Poker.

I'd be happy to run the competition for a few of the remaining races but I can't commit to them all for various reasons. I'd be around to do the scores (probably on the Monday) for Mexico, USA and possibly Abu Dhabi. I cannot do Japan or Brazil.

I can't promise the writeups Poker gives us or other things but hopefully it helps get us through until the end of the season.

Ditto on the write-ups but I'm willing to take over as caretaker until the end of the year.

I accept any option to complete the competition. Just decide who before Japanese GP. We have only 5 races until the end of the season.
It's nice that a few people have decided to help (P-F1 Mod, Exediron, JN23). I'm sorry for the pokerman's decision, but I understand there must have been a specific reason.

Sorry to hear that Poker. I'm far too busy to take on this myself (this doesn't mean that others aren't of course), so any help from people is appreciated.
