2024 Bahrain Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!

Post by Batty »

Image

That's right we back.

The Rules are similar to last year except some changes:

Points per correct prediction
1. 5 points
2. 3 points
3. 3 points
4th through to 10th. 2 points
(If the driver features in the top 10 but not in the correct position - 1 point is awarded)
Pole (Classified on Pole for the race): 2 points
FL: 1 point
First Retirement: 2 points - DNS counts as well
ROTR: 3 points
IIDOTR: 3 points
DBTMOTR: 2 points - Finished the most positions behind a teammate - Retirements don't count.
LP (Last Classified Finisher): 1 point
FTP (First to Pit - Only counts for the race): 1 point - Red Flag means everyone still on track gets the point
YF - Yellow Flag - Driver(s) that are part of the first yellow flag of the race : 1 point
Worst Team - Team with the worst average finishing position (both cars have to be still classified) during the race: 1 point
Funniest Alternative Title: 1 point

Sprint:
Points per correct prediction:
1-3 - 3 points
4-8 - 2 points for correct position - 1 point if not in correct position but in top 8
Pole - 2 points
First Retirement - 1 point

Double Points can be used whenever and automatically will be forced at the last GP.

18 GPs will count to final total as each person's worst 6 scores will be dropped.

Just to wave my Rules Wombat here- for the Yellow Flag, can you choose only one driver for that, as there could be several correct answers?
Otherwise there's nothing to stop you picking a whole gallery of drivers without penalty!

One driver. But if there are multiple drivers involved, still get points. e.g. Ocon and Albon have an incident at first corner, both count as a result.
