2020 Pick 10 Competition

[P-F1 Mod]

You said that last week, but your low score then (likely as now) was only as bad as the rest of us really with surprise results. I doubt anyone scored over 130

[K.F.]

Is there anyone who predict Checo's victory?

[P-F1 Mod]

Yes but crystal balls are banned so you lose 500 points

[K.F.]

OK. I was desperado before the end of the season. 500...not too much

[P-F1 Mod]

Haha. Seriously, that was an inspired call. If you don't win today I'll be amazed

[K.F.]

I only hope for decent result...I'm lookin' at the possible points now. Race was fantastic and unpredictable.

[P-F1 Mod]

Sounding more like Russell might be disqualified at this stage

[Schumacher forever#1]

Matched the top three of RUS BOT SAI for the start, but that faltered quite spectacularly lol

[K.F.]

Sounding more like Russell might be disqualified at this stage

George is clear, he's got 3 points today. It should be 25...

[P-F1 Mod]

95, results pending, can't be great.

I make yours 84. Not great but there are far worse scores this week.

I reckon I’m one of them

[P-F1 Mod]

I think it's widely accepted now that this should be the layout used in all future Bahrain Grand Prix. Which I would presume will mean it'll be mothballed tomorrow. This is F1, after all.

Congratulations are due twice over to K.F. First, for the correct prediction of the eventual winner, and second for no longer having the lowest single round score of the season, which has stayed with you since Austria.

Those in bold need to submit their predictions for next weekend privately. Any volunteers to receive these and send them to me after the race?

Those in italics have missed at least one race.

[JN23]

Better than expected!

If no one else steps forward, I can do it. I'm the first person out of mathematical contention, and I'm a former P-F1 Forum Games curator.

[P-F1 Mod]

Thanks Exediron. Given there's only this week I'll take that offer if you don't mind, I appreciate it.

No problem! I'll clear out my inbox to prevent any overflow issues...

[P-F1 Mod]

We boosted the limit a while back, that should help. Thanks

[pokerman]

95, results pending, can't be great.

I make yours 84. Not great but there are far worse scores this week.

That's what sometimes can happen with quick maths, also I'm trying to use pessimism as a winning strategy it worked to an extent last time out as you pointed out.

Haha pessimism is a new tactic, it might work better next week

It's contagious!

Thank You. This season is full of unusual results in real F1 and in our competition.

[JN23]

Question: as we may not know who is driving a Mercedes by the time FP1 starts, can we submit the driver as Hamilton but if Russell replaces him, then we’ll get the points? Same for Williams in the qualy predictions, submit as Russell but if it’s Aitken we get the points?

[K.F.]

The same question on Hamilton-Russell and finally to be sure - where should I send the pics?

This can be ignored, Hamilton is back.

[Exediron]

I can confirm that I have now received predictions from all of the top ten prior to the start of FP1.

If anyone wants to take an intentional penalty and send another set at a later date before the start of qualifying you can do so, of course.

[pokerman]

132, I'm hoping that's reasonable.

[P-F1 Mod]

Just waiting for the Sainz investigation and then I will post the results.

[K.F.]

132, I'm hoping that's reasonable.

You won with me this season (I have 130 only).

[pokerman]

132, I'm hoping that's reasonable.

I won the mad fight for 14th place.

Yeah, this season was really mad fight.
