Jenson's Understeer

Bailing on my earlier prediction and going with:

1. Hamilton
2. Verstappen
3. Bottas

This was the only one of the various PF1 prediction games I didn't completely Haas at, so I'm excited for the opportunity to change that :lol: By the way, I liked the write up being done to mirror Q1/Q2/Q3. Gives it a little quirk that separates this game from the others. Q1 20. Mazepin 19. Schumach...

Jenson's Understeer

I don't know whether this has already been asked / addressed but I assume that a Sprint race win does not count towards overall Grand Prix wins? What with it being more of a 'Mini-Prix.' More specifically, how will this look against a driver's stats? For example, should Hamilton be on 99 GP wins go...

Jenson's Understeer

Better late than never (mainly due to my moving house a couple of days prior to the race and consequently having much bigger priorities than doing this!) it's time for the first PF1 TMW vote thread of 2021. As anyone who has been on the forum prior to the end of last season will know, at this point ...

Jenson's Understeer

We had two different teams legitimately fighting for the win and finishing less than a second apart, and the reaction to that is 'let's make a massive change to the regulations that'll fundamentally change that and put half a second between the two cars'? I swear some people are just never satisfied.

1. Verstappen

Jenson's Understeer

Williams, and if they aren't the worst team on the grid this year, I think that'll only highlight the gulf in class between Russell and Latifi. We could see a situation where Russell is into Q2 on an even more regular basis than in 2020, while Latifi is still being eliminated in Q1 almost every week...

Jenson's Understeer

In spite of my criticisms of it, I don't really understand why some people have an expectation that the series will cover every single significant storyline from the season. It's very clear what the format is: pick a driver/team/news item for each episode and focus relentlessly on that, with a very ...

Can't wait for it to end up being HAM/BOT/VER.

Jenson's Understeer

None of these. I want a tight and exciting season of racing. A) None of these options mean that won't happen. B) even if that was the case, and I really don't understand how you think it is the case, it's about your preferred option of these 8 options. I have chosen one change. It just isn't one of...

Jenson's Understeer

Minor point of irritation but they got the story of the Italian GP slightly wrong. They talked about Hamilton entering the closed pit lane after Leclerc’s big crash, but it was when Magnussen retired that the pit lane closed. Safety car came in and Hamilton led away, Leclerc then crashed. (I think)...

Jenson's Understeer

That's true, but is there any other driver pairing where you have one driver who seems to potentially have the pace to challenge but is simply unwilling to do what has been proven before to produce results? If Perez turns out to be close to Max on pace but unwilling to make life difficult for him o...

Looking back at the results for the mercedes drivers over the past 3 seasons, the votes swing to hamilton doesn't seem surprising. It is understandable that there have been plenty of times where Bottas has got no votes at all. But what I find strange is that there has only been 1 time that Hamilton...

Here we go, last prediction thread of the year. And with just enough time to have the vote open for a week but still end prior to the start of the first FP1 of the year. You'd almost think I'd planned it like this, and the timing wasn't just because I'd been preoccupied and not got around to startin...

Jenson's Understeer and Exediron - I've put your team down as No Limit Excedrin Racing again, just shout if you fancy a change of name! What are we, Renault?

We're continuing as a team for another year, right Exediron? Yeah, I'm back. Last year didn't go as planned, but I'm not going to pass up a chance to predict someone other than Mercedes to win in Australia and then watch my optimism slowly wilt over the course of the season as it becomes increasing...

One other new rule, designed to help players who miss a weekend or two, sees any missed rounds (up to 3) using the previous weekend's predictions to cover you.

Since it's bound to happen: how would that work for someone who misses the first race but then enters a prediction for race two?

Ever since winning money on Brawn, I've liked to put on an overly optimistic driver/team bet based on the early part of testing. This year I got McLaren to win the WCC at 100/1 (£20 on that) and Ricciardo to win the WDC at 33/1 (£5 on that as the shorter odds didn't make putting anything larger wor...

Williams seems to be the only livery I really differ on the average from, as I put it 7th whereas the forum has (to this point) ranked it last. The rest I've got either in the same place as the forum average, or one place from the forum average. Sadly, this is probably going to be more accurate than...

The penultimate in the series of these threads focuses on two teams who will be looking to move closer to Red Bull in 2021, and will each be hoping to do so with the help of a marquee driver signing. It's time to look at the McLaren and Aston Martin 2021 TMW predictions. McLaren's F1 resurgence both...

Jenson's Understeer

I'm sticking with the guy I've been predicting since the last decade: George Russell. I have a feeling Mercedes are going to nail the new regulations and will continue to dominate until at least the middle of the decade, with Russell the main beneficiary after stepping up to the team for 2022. I cou...

We've reached the midway point of the PF1 TMW prediction threads, and on this occasion we get to discuss the fortunes of two teams who would've hoped for more from 2020: Alpine and Ferrari. 2020 was unquestionably a disaster for Ferrari, and to a certain extent the less said about it, the better. It...

The second of five TMW prediction threads for 2021 sees us predicting the fortunes of the two teams who finished 7th and 8th in last year's constructors standings, but actually had wildly different years. It's the two teams who sound alike, Alfa and Alpha! Alfa Romeo endued another frustrating seaso...

Mazepin has a better junior record than Latiffi but it's nothing to get excited about. They've both failed to win any championships on their way to F1, including regional championships and even junior national karting championships. It's splitting hairs to say which is less awful. I think Mazepin's...

Jenson's Understeer

So, obviously Russell. But I actually think he'll be further ahead this year and will be the driver who gets the largest % of the vote across the season. I also think he'll score points for Williams before moving to Mercedes for 2021. As for Haas, my expectation is they'll replace Williams at the ba...

The first of five threads heading into the (scheduled!) start of the 2021 season focuses on the two teams who finished in the bottom two of the WCC standings in 2021, Williams and Haas. At Williams, it will again be George Russell and Nicholas Latifi behind the wheel. In a slightly odd scenario, the...

Hamilton and Russell if Hamilton can’t see any better opportunities for 2022 (bar Ferrari and Red Bull who I don’t think would be open to signing him anyway.) If he wins the 8th then immediately retires he would be a hypocrite for criticising Rosberg for not allowing others a chance to win the titl...

No (explicit) Verstappen-Russell option or Verstappen options in general?

Russell/Max would be covered by Russell and neither Hamilton/Bottas, while Max and someone besides Hamilton/Russell/Bottas would be the last option. I'm hardly going to list out every conceivable pairing, am I?
