It's the PF1 Pick 10 Competition! 2012 EditionThe game was such a big hit last year that it would almost be a crime not to have it again this year.
Razoola is the reigning champion from last year in a closely contested championship, while an epic battle unfolded between the Rookies
dbfinch,
ManicOversteer and
Lotus38. Lets hope this year we will have another closley fought title for both categories!
For those of you who don't know what the PF1 Pick 10 Competition is, here are the rules:
Quote:
Rules are simple, pick 10 drivers you think will finish the race in the points and place them in the order of which you think they will finish. Points are awarded according to the difference your selection is from the race result, providing the selected drivers score points.
o Picking driver in correct place earns 25 points.
o One place out earns 18 points.
o Two place out earns 15 points.
o Three places out earns 12 points.
o Four places out earns 10 points.
o Five places out earns 8 points.
o Six places out earns 6 points.
o Seven places out earns 4 point.
o Eight places out earns 2 point.
o Nine places out earns 1 point.
Maximum points per race is 250.
Example for the 2011 Brazilian Grand Prix:
Tip / Result: Points
1: Vettel / 2nd: 18 points
2: Hamilton / ret: 0 points
3: Webber / 1st: 15 points
4: Button / 3rd: 18 points
5: Kobayashi/ 9th: 10 points
6: Schumacher / 15th: 0 points
7: Rosberg/ 7th: 25 points
8: Buemi / 12th: 0 points
9: Alonso / 4th: 8 points
10: Petrov / 10th: 25 points
Therefore my overall score for Brazil would be:
134 points
The person who has the most points by the end of the season wins the championship.
Your picks must be entered before Friday Practice 1 and can be changed any time before the session starts (just be sure to let me know). Any late picks will incur a penalty depending on how many sessions have passed.
-15 points for FP1
-18 points for FP2
-25 points for SP1
-DSQ for Qual
Incase the forum temporary closes during a race week and you are unable to submit your entry, your average score from past rounds will be used.
A Rookie Field exists for those who miss the opening rounds and wish to join later in the season.
For any of you newcomers you will be surprised at how much more attention you will pay to the entire field during a race and throughout the season, and you will find yourself barracking for drivers that you would never have before.
The first round is the Australian Grand Prix around the Albert Park Street Circuit. It will be the first time we see the cars true performance which makes it the hardest round of the season to predict, but the perfect time to make any crazy picks to get a head start on the rest of the field.
So with 9 Days and 14 Hours until Friday Practice 1, Let The Game Begin...
