Well done to TM on another season of success in the F1 Caption Competition. We've had 14 different winners (my near midnight counting might not be very good) this season, which I think shows what a good year it's been, there have been some classics. I've enjoyed it, and am looking forward to 4 months off.

Feel free to do some winter testing (this is pending an inquiry in to if it is too expensive)

Oh and to keep in with F1 2010 regulations you might not be able to drink or eat for the period of your caption next season...

I do plan on archiving some of the OP in another thread as it is getting quite big now! An F1CC History thread perhaps!

The opening post has the final standings along with a summary of all the winners, I hope you've all enjoyed it. 👍

Touring Mars wins this pretty picture.

Hopefully it has some gold in it, then you can get cash for it. Did you know that you CAN SELL GOLD FOR CASH! I bet you never knew that gold was valuable.

Congrats on another excellently run season, Sureboss, and for keeping this one of the best F1 caption games on the interweb

Thanks to everyone who voted for my captions throughout the season, the money should have reached your accounts by now. Well done to the chasing pack, particularly my fellow podium finishers, Smallhorses and Soundtrack, to interludes on a second consecutive 4th spot, to Omnis for another strong season and also to PeterJB on a terrific season - one to watch for next year, I'm sure Well done to everyone who took part and particularly to those who scored points or even won a round for the first time Hope to see as much interest in the game next season.

Congrats to TM and Smallhorses and Soundtrack. Well deserved to be at the top of the heap.

Big thanks to Sureboss for the time and effort to organize this fantastic way to spend time.
I've enjoyed my first season immensely. A top 10 finish was great, albeit a little late on getting of the grid. 👍

I didn't know there was a cheque involved or I'd have tried harder...

Congrats to Pupik's joke book TM, and the other podium finishers.

Thanks to Sureboss for taking the time to administer this too 👍

 

[Boffin]

Yes - Cheers, Sureboss - although I didn't enter much, I got me thinking and I'll definatly be back next season - if I manage to keep out of trouble for that long, that is.

I can see alot of effort was put in to run the whole thing - so I say bravo to you, sir - and may there be many more seasons to come.

 

[Pescara for GT5]

Maybe I can score next year as well, I just now realized my last caption got messed up, there was supposed to be a picture under it, oh well.

[PeterJB]

Well, certainly an improvement for me over last year! Hopefully next year title will be mine, then I'll have gone one step better than Vettel over a 3 year period!

 

[Sureboss]

1. Jean Todt
2. Ari Vatanen

Aw, too late.

Pardon?

 

[Pescara for GT5]

Ya, nice captions all around, and Sureboss, do you think we could get a recap of all the winning Captions from the year, if that isn't to much of a hassle.

 

[PeterJB]

They're on the first page.

 

[Pescara for GT5]

They're on the first page.

Ah, I will look right now.

[SUPER NUMBBER]

So when's the victory parade?

 

[Ian Poole]

I believe he isnt having one but I do remember him saying drinks all round

 

[Pescara for GT5]

I believe he isnt having one but I do remember him saying drinks all round

I will take a scotch and water, hold the scotch.

 

[SUPER NUMBBER]

What's the point of being a winner if you can't take a tour of the city with people throwing confetti and random women flashing you?

 

[Ian Poole]

I will take a scotch and water, hold the scotch.

So a drink of water then?

 

[Sureboss]

I believe he isnt having one but I do remember him saying drinks all round

You sure? Doesn't sound like a Scotsman to me!

----

Looking ahead to 2010, any suggestions for next season? Anything I could do differently?

 

[Pescara for GT5]

So a drink of water then?

Legally, yes, unless you want to get my order wrong, then no one would have to know.
