Total disaster for me too. All I had was pole position prediction. Half of my team either failed to finish or were nowhere and going backwards

Finally a decent result for me, so went up a few places

Disaster for me.

I dropped Vettel a few races back but completely forgot I'd done so yesterday when he was making his way up the field and I thought "ooh, a nice haul of points coming here". Yeah, that's didn't work out so well.

I got 2/3 of the podium right but only caught Vettel's issue 5 mins before qually, so I changed my pole prediction to Raik without really thinking of the fastest lap etc. Had I thought a bit more Vet would be at the back with a fresh engine and fresh tyres.. seemed obvious now

lordrobs · 6 Oct 2017 at 20:05

Don't forget your predictions. The back to back races are the ones that nearly catch me out!

Apart from Shimmy, he's too close for comfort

Damn... worst result of the season so far for me! I wasn't going to make a single change all season but seeing as the real teams have had a shuffle I've decided to play a joker and have a single shuffle round for the final races :eek:

Deleted member 651465 · 10 Oct 2017 at 20:48

I only had one prediction right

Good job I did otherwise I think I'd be behind Shimmy now

Almost had a clean sweep with the predictions apart from Max p3

The last few races have been all over the place with the Ferrari mess and various engine penalties (meaning there are big bonus points on offer through the races, and bonus points carry far more weight than anything else), so Vettel in Sepang and Max in Austin would have yielded silly amounts of points if you had them in your team.

I've only averaged about 90-100 points per race since the summer break. Edit: 119 average, so better than I thought. Sinapore was the worst with 89, Italy the best with 156.

TBH Hamilton pole and Hamilton win are the only predictions that regularly deliver for me. The rest are just a punt that very rarely come in!

Shimmy · 28 Oct 2017 at 22:27

Just realised I forgot to do my predictions for the weekend

The_Abyss · 28 Oct 2017 at 22:32

I don't think I've done mine for the past four races! And the ones I did today haven't worked out too well anyway!

No it was quite hard to work out the pecking order this weekend, and I don't think many would have tipped Vettel for pole (looked like Red Bull and Mercedes ).

I went for Hamilton pole and Ricciardo win, so my predictions aren't looking too clever already.

I should have known with Kyvat being dropped that Verstappen would be on the front row.

Looking at the race, not sure what difference it would have made. Renault engines blowing up cost me dearly though

Interesting

I think it would be interesting for the top 5 to 'show their hand' after the last race as the points are so close. Obviously the predictions change but I wouldn't mind betting that those near the top have similar strategies for distributing their budgets.

Sure, I'm game for that. Maybe we can do it after Quali during last race weekend.
