Like others I'm questioning my pick of Ricciardo ... But before I look at changing, if Ricciardo gets replaced with Lawson (for example) does my 2nd driver become Lawson by default, and I get to keep both my driver swap allowances ?


Ricciardo has full surprised me, really thought he would've come back with real fireworks this year ! I am starting to wonder if he really has lost that extra little spark he had ?

 

[Fezzik]

As whatever Sauber are called this week can’t be trusted to handle their nuts properly:

Driver swap 1 please - Guanyu out, Hulkenberg in.

 

[Famine]

Right, who wants to see an update to all this?

This does take into account the four swaps made just before the Japanese GP.

If anyone spots any particular blips, do let me know.

 

[Pupik]

At this rate, I'm going to be replaced with Liam Lawson.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Can I swap Sargeant for Hulkenberg please.

My two round victories in Saudi and Japan have been severely hampered by Williams' Excel sheet saying "2" instead of "3" next to Chassis'. (Could the top number be bolded in each round pretty please @Famine)

 

[Famine]

(Could the top number be bolded in each round pretty please @Famine)

Well...

With 27 columns by year-end, I may not continue showing individual round results in the overall table as it'll get a bit... wide.

 

[DK]

Lawson's debut can't come soon enough.

 

[XJ40]

Well, at least I'm not last........

 

[Jordan]

Well, at least I'm not last........

 

[Fezzik]

Well done Hulk, finally got some points from the driver 2 slot.

 

[Famine]

Man, VCARB just letting me down week after week...

I think that the best possible team at the moment is Perez, Hulkenberg, Ferrari/Ferrari at 324 for 13 tokens. If you could max out it'd be Perez, Leclerc, Red Bull, Honda at 371.5.

And Perez is actually leading the driver standings

How the hell am I in first place?

Quick reminder of the deadline for swaps this week, and the token recalculation after the race - which you'll need to beat if you want to swap out components you think will lose value, or let sail by if you want to take advantage of an increase in value to swap out something that will gain value based on temporary form...

RACE SIX ENTRY DEADLINE - 2000 UTC, Saturday May 4
FIRST TOKEN UPDATE - 1100 UTC, Wednesday May 8

[Spacegoat]

One of these days I assume Piastri and Tsunoda will both do well in the same race.

Probably.

 

[Fezzik]

I’m surprised I got any points. A bit too reliant on Piastri (involved in driver, chassis and engine) so it really hurt when Carlos slid into him.

 

[Famine]

New Token value day!

As I said, I have no idea what I'm doing so imma let mine ride.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Ooooh, my team value has gone up by +2

 

[PaMu1337]

Let's do a swap:
Chassis: Mercedes -> McLaren

 

[Jimlaad43]

Halfway through the season, can't wait to see the updated scores!

Halfway through the season, can't wait to see the updated scores!

Haven't had time with all the flitting about and genuinely missed about three of the races entirely.

 

[Fezzik]

Piastri win, McLaren 1-2, Merc engine 1-2

 

[Famine]

So, having been reminded - in a profoundly dickish manner by someone who badly needs to learn how to speak to other people politely - that this exists (F1 ranking low on my Give a Crap-o-Meter, given real-life concerns which they didn't bother to consider), I've updated the overall points and Tokens across the components (Tokens values to follow):

Chassis	Points

Ferrari	287
Red Bull	248

I'll be updating the individual team points when I get up tomorrow. As a quick reminder, if you want to do any swaps, you've got until 2200 UTC on Saturday to do so.

[Fezzik]

seriously?

Thanks @Famine for updating. People really need to chill, it’s just a bit of fun.

 

[PaMu1337]

FACC is really showing how well McLaren has been performing this season.

I'm kinda shocked how high up I am in the ranking, considering my Renault engines. Having the 3rd and 4th best driver helps I guess.

[noshog]

Thanks @Famine !

Had a feeling my McLaren/Ferrari combo would be doing OK, but a little surprised to be sitting in second ... I had gotten used to mid field obscurity .

With Ricciardo gone does my second driver become Lawson by default ?
