2022 Italian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!

Post by Rob Dylan »

We're back at magical Monza for Round 37 of the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship Predicament Predictions Extravaganza Bonanza Competition Series. Not much to say other than that this is the third part of a magical triple header. I'm sure you all know the rules, but if you don't, buzz me or check the Bahrain GP thread.

Here is your blank slate as always:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Pole:
Fastest lap:
First retirement:
Reject of the Race:
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race:
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race:
Last Place:
How Far Back:


For me, I shall predict the most unpredictable thing of all: Ferrari will get a 1-2 on home soil without any issues whatsoever - a perfect weekend no less.

1. Charles Leclerc
2. Carlos Sainz Jr.
3. Max Verstappen
4. George Russell
5. Lewis Hamilton
6. Sergio Perez
7. Fernando Alonso
8. Lance Stroll
9. Esteban Ocon
10. Daniel Ricciardo

Pole: Charles Leclerc
Fastest lap: Charles Leclerc
First retirement: Yuki Tsunoda
Reject of the Race: Lando Norris (embarrassing 1080 degree spin out of the Lesmos before beaching it in the gravel, then throwing his steering wheel out of the car and hitting Ricciardo's rear tyre)
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race: Ferrari for an impeccable weekend
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race: Lando Norris
Last Place: Nicholas Latifi
How Far Back: 2 laps

And the results are in! Taking their first win since the opening round at Australia, Fetzie scores with a hefty 21 points! It was a relatively predictable round, as many expected it would be. dr-baker even banked on it being super predictable by running double points. However, it just wasn't what he predicted! 20 points for him but only after a regular points haul of 10. Here are the results:

1. Fetzie 21
2. dr-baker 20**
3. Enforcer 19
- Hermann95 19

5. RAK 18
6. mario 15
- pi314159 15
8. tommykl 14
9. Freeze-O-Kimi 13
- Bleu 13
- Londoner 13
- Klon 13
13. IceG 12
- takagi_for_the_win 12
- Batty 12
16. Rob Dylan 10
17. rachel1990 9
18. Aerond 8

*funniest alternative race title not awarded
**double points activated




I somehow forgot to mention also that Aerond scored absolutely terrible. It's knocked down his championship lead to a single point over RAK. Let's look at the overall picture with 6 rounds to go:


1. Aerond 225
2. RAK 224
3. mario 220

4. dr-baker 204
5. Hermann95 202
6. IceG 200

I scored 12 when I thought I had scored 1.

So that puts me on a par with the FIA for understanding how the points system works :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:
