Formula 1 Predictions League - Round One - Bahrain

[Turkey]

2010 FORMULA 1 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX

Thought this might be a bit of fun - but I reserve the right to get bored and give up half way through the season

PREDICT THE TOP TEN FINISHERS
PREDICT WHO WILL GET POLE POSITION
PREDICT WHO WILL GET THE FASTEST LAP
PREDICT THREE RETIREMENTS

POINTS SYSTEM:

Correctly predict the WINNER: 10 points
Correctly predict a drivers finishing position (2-10): 5 points
Correctly predict a driver finishing in the top 10: 1 point
Correctly predict the fastest lap: 3 points
Correctly predict the driver on POLE: 5 points
Correctly predict a retiree: 3 points per retiree (with 3 bonus points if all three of your drivers retire)

All your picks should be posted by the beginning of the first Practice session of the Grand Prix. So this weekend that's 7am GMT on Friday morning.

Do you KNOW how EXCITED I am about the NEW season! 48 hours to go

I predict that the cars will go round and round, most of the time one behind the other in a line, very occasionally one will break down or maybe even spin off. Not sure why, but I will probably watch it, and try to get excited... or at least pretend I am interested so Mrs Titanic doesn't find 'jobs' for me to do.

Yawn. Ignorance is bliss.

Not necessarily but just because you can't/won't understand it doesn't mean its boring like you are implying, I HATE people who think F1 is simple.

Go on then, enlighten me in a few short and simple sentences why watching an F1 race on TV is so exciting.

Why is anything exciting? the fact that millions of people watch motor sports worldwide surely is proof enough that it isn't this boring predictable sport you proclaim it to be?

Good answer.

Not sure that I 'proclaimed' anything... you seem a bit touchy about it?

 

[The Wizard]

I really cannot be bothered. if you don't like it, don't post on the thread. quite simple really.
