F1 Fantasy League 2023

Okay, seems, no one wants to show their hands at least a tiny bit. Not even, while there is not a lot of racing to discuss this weekend

[lucafo]

Ok.
Time to sell Ferrari and AM and buy MB

[BorisTheBlade]

Well, firstly I am glad I never had Ferrari in my team. But it is not "time to sell". If someone really still has them, it is long, long overdue. From a points per million perspective they are the worst team of the whole bunch.
As for Mercedes: It remains to be seen. ATM they appear to be a "keep" but not an outright "buy".

[chrisc90]

Ive tweaked mine.

Ver, Alonso, Hulk
Red Bull, Alpine, Haas.

Tried to get Merc in there, but budget was far too tight with having Max and Red Bull.

Formerly
Ver, Alo, Stroll
Fer, Aston, Alpha Tauri.

Ferrari wasnt bringing home the goods. I think having Hulk beats spending a bit more and having Mercedes and Sargent.


Could however look at something like Ver, Hulk, Piastri then car wise, RB, Merc, Haas. Not sure what pays more really. The cars or the drivers.

Damn I'm 1 point off first place.

[BassVirolla]

I am with RB, AM, Haas.

The drivers: Perez, Alonso, Sargeant. Started with De Vries and Alfa Romeo instead of Haas and Sargeant, but they were seriously underperforming, and that hampered my budget.

[TheKillingDoll]

Damn I'm 1 point off first place.

Done without the pro elite bonus of an extra $5million to spend and 40 team changes. That is great going.

[Stu]

I have Hamilton, Zhou & Albon; teamed up with RedBull, Aston & Alpine. I’ve missed getting predictions in for a few races (3-4) & I’m mid-table.
No pro-elite bonus, no team/driver changes.

[chrisc90]

23rd, I just always seem to get the podiums wrong. Never seem to pick up as many points as others for some reason.

[BassVirolla]

I've changed Perez for Hamilton, and Sargeant for De Vries. Also Haas for Williams.

I'm not sure if I'm doing a complete nonsense.

[emp]

I've also changed Perez with Hamilton, held Seargeant and dumped Wiliams for McLaren.

Team value, 101M. Cash, 3M. Not bad from 75M, but P12 in our league and probably too late to seriously move up.
I am assuming that a lot of people might have picked up Alonso's overall +9M (AM +7M), and/or Verstappens +4M. Fewer might have picked up Albon's +5M.

Hmmm... sell Alonso, buy Ricciardo?

Who else is over 100M?

[Stu]

I’m up to 93M, cash 0.

Hamilton +2M
Zhou +3M
Albon +5M

Aston +7M
RedBull +3.5M

The only fly in the ointment is
Alpine -2.5M

[lucafo]

I got lot of points last few races with small changes.
Actual team is:
Albon +5
Verstappen +1,5
Ricciardo +1,5
Redbul +3,5
Mclaren +3
Aston Martin +7,5
Total is 102,5 plus cash 3,5
But lost some in the begin with Ferrari and Sainz
The game change were Verstappen and Redbul
