The winner of the 2015 Spanish GP for a consecutive week and the first player to do so yet @jake2013guy which means he also gains a CP to use toward the WDC championship. With the championship overall having @tbwhhs still maintaining a points lead over @TRGTspecialist of 13 points and a gap over @ROAD_DOGG33J of 18 points who sit second and third respectively.
Also it should be noted that @ukfan758 would have had the win but did not have enough CP.
Now I would also like to mention two topics, picks being submitted and this weeks crown jewel of Monaco. The picks I'm seeing for say the WDC are fine for the most part...however if you miss a week and come back make sure you are looking at the most recent GP you played. Those are the consecutive picks I go by and carry through until you are no longer playing. Thus if you played in China but not Spain and you plan to make a selection this week, I will be looking at what picks you made in China. It does not mean you start fresh as if you didn't pick anyone at all prior. Also please watch your CP if you don't have the CP to allow you to pick a constructor or driver then don't do it because if you do you will not be given the points for that. Furthermore, I've noticed the WCC is where the problem lies in CP abuse or misunderstanding of how it's tallied. If you picked Merc and Merc in the same week and the next GP you pick Merc and Merc or just one Mercedes even. You've wasted either 1 or 2 CP depending on which scenario you do. So there are a couple of people that have done this and keep doing it and thus aren't getting any points in the WCC due to it cause they no longer have CP. I post the CP in each championship guide so you can come here and look at it and know what strategy to take week by week. For the most part people are doing a wise thing by using the same picks every week that don't have them wasting a CP. Which means overall people do understand how the system works. So if you have questions on this please feel free to ask.
As for the Monaco GP points structure this week everything is worth double points in other works in the standings chart I give (as seen above the country GP flag) you'll see two numbers your normal amount for any week you participate and a colored number showing how many points extra you've gained to use at any point of the season.
The Indy crown Jewel will be talked about at the bottom.
On another note, I would like to apologize for the tardiness of the postings I'm currently taking two summer classes (though the second hasn't officially started yet) and right now a lot of my time is going to family and Thermodynamics thus I may be a little flustered. However, this was the first week of class in an 8 week summer course so I'm obviously getting a schedule to work with my off time stuff like this and school/work/family. So the next GP shouldn't be as late.

The winner this week and for a third time this season in the WCC is @TRGTspecialist which means another 2 CP toward the WCC for him to use at any point in the season. It also means he is the current points leader sitting 15 points ahead of second place @tbwhhs and 44 points above third place @Spacegoat.
So good job on those two who seem to currently be dominating the overall championships in both, however with the Crown Jewel events all coming together right now this can completely change the landscape of the game as it comes to a close later this year.
The Indy race will have a unique break down in points. You will pick five drivers to finish in the top five, if any of those drivers do finish in the top five you'll be awarded 1-5 points accordingly based on how many of those five finished (in no specific order) in the top five. If they finished in the top ten or below the top five you'll be given a half point. After this the order of finish will be taken into account so if a driver finished in the exact place you predicted they would in the top five you get 5 points. Thus you can earn 5-25 points, with the highest yield being 30 points overall.
Example
User picks 1. Dixon, 2.Castroneves, 3. Kanaan, 4. Montoya, 5. Hunter-Reay
Finish order is 1. Dixon, 2. Montoya, 3. Kanaan, 4.Castroneves, 5. Hunter-Reay
Points yielded. 5 for all five drivers picked being in top 5, 15 for picking 3 out of the five in correct order.
