I was 10ms out on pole time, not sure I will ever get closer than that

Boom - nice one

Aside from someone not actually playing, I have remained resolutely last throughout the season, and with a pole time in excess of 8 minutes out (howTF are they calculating that!?), that is not going to be changing any time soon!

Poo!

Seems this really wasn’t the weekend to drop MacLaren and RedBull for Merc and Merc

That sound you can hear is someone cackling

Edit: oh great!!

Haven’t done the maths but that might have worked out for you…

Just about. Had been hoping for a windfall though. It’ll cost me the next few races I think

Bottas needs to do better for you, Perez for me.
I’d say you’ve got the edge there.
For the time being… :thinking:

Christ, good weekend for Sam

Max to Lewis and a 1 point lead

Tight at the top - any of the top 5* could win it, just needs a fair wind (and an excel sheet)

(* no, not you Paul)

I didn’t see that one coming.
Shit, just seen even Paul scored more points that me last race. :rage:

:joy: don’t I know it!

Suzuka = might be wet - might be VERY wet - might be dry and grey and cool - might be sunny and hot - might be all of those over the course of the weekend . . . . . . good-luck double-guessing this one kids!

Jings Crivens! You’re right of course - thought it was a bit previous, but Jarno has Suzuka on F1Manager.info!

Getting the impression his heart isn’t fully in it any more…

It hasn’t been for a long time. It has the makings of an excellent fantasy game, TBH - it’s rare that such games require one to steadily build the team through the season - I like it

If I knew what the actual fuck I was doing, and if had a pot to piss in, I’d make him an offer. Too many ifs, I’m afraid. What what

Agreed - it’s a nice combo of blind luck, knowledge and skill that makes it feel (however wrongly in my case) that you’re in with a chance for most of the season. It’s certainly something that could be easily monetised by an owner who knows what he’s doing (me neither).


And I must just moan: losing Suzuka this year is fucking batshit and I’m honestly gutted - love that race, love its wildcard weather, love the barmy, super-enthusiastic Japanese fans / but crowbarring-in #1 terrorism-funder, Saudia Arabia: peak cuntishness - fuck the FIA, and fuck SA!

That’s better.
