Oh... triiiiiicky after FP3. I had a selection in mind but... dang.

DRIVER 1: Russell (4)
DRIVER 2: Albon (3)
CHASSIS: Williams (1)
ENGINE: Mercedes (5)

 

[Spacegoat]

I maybe should have waited until after FP3. Lawson isn't exactly filling me with confidence so far. 😅

 

[PaMu1337]

I have a feeling Williams is an excellent choice for chassis at only one token 😁

 

[GTR_Bryan]

Not feeling so good about my choices after quali but we still have the race

And 23 more thereafter Also this one could be a damp one...

We've had races in the past where someone has gone from the highest score that week to the lowest the next, or vice versa. It can be a weird old game, this.

It's a very long season, much will change.
Looking at the picks there's a few duplicates. I may need that Joker at some point this year.

Tis the way of F1. Ferrari are hoping for a wet race so that will help out with Hamilton but who knows what will happen with the Red Bulls

It is indeed. The cream will rise to the top as it always does but the top 4 and the 5th&6th ranked teams seem closer but this always happens at the end of a regulation cycle.

A shame about Carlos’ spin ruining any Williams points, and Oscar’s off as well, but a decent start. Obviously should’ve picked Max or Lando instead for driver 1 at the same cost, but I like Piastri more.

• Drivers: Albon and Tsunoda- 6 tokens. Engine: Mercedes 5 tokens. Chassis: Racing Bulls

 

[Famine]

Right... I meant to do this on Wednesday (and indeed Wednesdays) but the first one's always the trickiest.

Please check to make sure that your score is accurate, according to what you think it should be; there's sometimes the occasional blip in the Excel sheet formulae that I've missed!

I'll add component scores later on, for double-checking purposes, and update the first post accordingly.

Don't forget that if you already want to make changes (you don't), you have until one hour before race qualifying in Shanghai to do so this weekend!

RACE TWO ENTRY/SWAP DEADLINE - 0500 UTC, Saturday March 22

 

[Spacegoat]

Well, there's only one way I can go from here. Up!*

*Probably.

 

[Jimlaad43]

I'm amazed to be P3 with one of my drivers being in that absolute Tractor of a Haas. I'll let there be some normal weekends to truly judge the pace of it before I jump the gun and swap them out.

Do you accept entries after the season has started?

EDIT: Oops, can't read.

DRIVER 1: Russell (4)
DRIVER 2: Antonelli (2) Hadjar (1)
CHASSIS: McLaren (5)
ENGINE: RBPT (2) (3)

I believe you're the 4th entry with this exact team 😂
Perfectly legal to do that, but still funny

 

[Famine]

Do you accept entries after the season has started?

Yep. But I don't accept edited entries:

Your initial entry will be final, with any edits disregarded.

As you made the Race 2 cutoff with your initial entry, that team will be included but your changes will not.

 

[PaMu1337]

Yep. But I don't accept edited entries:

As you made the Race 2 cutoff with your initial entry, that team will be included but your changes will not.

I believe his initial team was illegal because he misread the points

That'd probably have been revealed when I put it into the spreadsheet - and it'd be moved onto the next clause:

If your selected entry is over 13 Tokens it will be disregarded.

... which I guess means it'll be disregarded entirely. At least for Race 2.

If you want to resubmit for Race 3, @GTracer38, then that'd be fine.

Yes, unfortunately and I'm coming in a round behind. I did try to set the team without looking at the others choices.

Though I do have some choosers remorse, I'll see how it goes.

 

[GTracer38]

Yep. But I don't accept edited entries:

As you made the Race 2 cutoff with your initial entry, that team will be included but your changes will not.

Yeah no dramas, wasn't sure if that was edits after the entry was submitted (as in deadline/read by yourself) or just in across the board.
But yeah as mentioned by PaMu I'd buggered it either way

If you want to resubmit for Race 3, @GTracer38, then that'd be fine.

Will do, ta!

Spoiler: Chinese GP spoiler

Phew, glad I didn't jump as Bearman was the highest 1-point driver!
