2018 Interforum League Championship

[Dogued]

On to Round 2!
We've gained a few more returning players, 2 of whom made it to the Top 10!

Just a reminder, I am unable to alter ZDKF1 results if you miss the deadline. I am also unable to recalculate your score if you send me a late entry list.
What I CAN do is the following: If you PM me on the forum BEFORE Q1 STARTS, I can use your previous race prediction (and remove the penalty on my records). Late Pole Guesses will NOT be accepted after FP1 begins as changing weather/huge gains in speed during FP sessions can give an advantage.
So I would suggest you take some time between China and Azerbaijan to put in dummy predictions for the season which you can edit before the race date.

Also, a side note: I'm based in Australia, so forgive any delays in posting... most races finish at 3am so I don't get to results for about 12hrs.

DO NOT FORGET CHINA PREDICTIONS CLOSE THIS WEEK!

I'm not suggesting anything strange was going on, but the FIA are investigating his result to see if he cut any corners!

Round 4 - Azerbaijan GP Results

And we're Baku!

We return to Europe (Well.. depends who you ask and where you stand...) for this round, to that historic track around the city of Baku.
Since serving up a race in 2016 that only rivaled Sochi for "Miss Boring 2016" title, Baku certainly delivered last year and followed it up with another great race this season.

Montecristo returns to the winners podium for the first time since Monaco 2017, surviving the carnage!
Many players are leaving as disappointed as a Red Bull driver, with far from ideal scores.
Perhaps we can all take a leaf out of Grosjean's book and blame Ericsson!

Oh what a glorious, exciting, and amazing weekend.... if you're part of the Williams Raft team.

Round 8 - French GP Results


Well, like a loose Force India tyre, that one flew by! Almost a perfect Grand Chelem for Hamilton, and one of the worst weekends Alonso has had in a while (and he's had a few!)

DO NOT FORGET THIS IS A TRIPPLE HEADER! Austria closes THIS Thursday, with the British GP the weekend after that. If you're not sure of your schedule, make sure you at least put in banker predictions so you don't miss out! I hate having to drop someone from the top 10 because they didn't put in a prediction!

***NOTE***
Every 4 races I do a full audit. This time I have picked up an error that seems to be from Azerbaijan. It appears that ZDKF1 have changed something post results which has meant 26 players gained 1 point, 13 stayed the same, and 1 player lost 2 points. I don't know what's changed, but have updated the scores to reflect the correct totals. This change means that the Top 10 for that round have a bit of a shuffle around in the lower half and leaves the Interforum Standings: F1 Forum & Sports Babble +2, The Fast Lane +1, F1 World -4, Motorsport Forums -1.
