Charles Pic Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Oh dear. I didn’t get the memo about being allowed to make predictions today, so it seems I’ve shot myself in the foot again. I’d given up on predictions following yesterday and missed the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tee Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Do I gather that having got my predictions right for the first time I get no points because I didn't alter anything? John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tee Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 correction I did get points (according to the Fantasygp site). No spoilers. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 OK, I can see over on channel 4 they're talking to Charles Leclerc, so clearly their race coverage has finished. So without further delay, here are the scores in our league for today.

A little further back on 168 is Kev. Well done all three! Up next, the overall table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 3 places swaps today, so first let's see the table; Pos Place gain/loss Team Manager Pts 1 - GASTON Formula Chris McG 2000 2 +1 Pitts Specials john stones 1911 3 -1 Roos Racers rk295ELITE 1901 4 - iqon racing iqon 1856 5 - PSS Power Flyer 1809 6 - Revers Racing Pete B 1774 7 +1 Norfolk Flyers Kevin Fairgrieve 1701 8 -1 AnyoneSeenBernie johnpflyrc 1686 9 - Flying Eagles Gary Goodfellow 1633 10 - Essex Racing Tony Clark 1590 11 +1 Team Charles Picd Charles Pic 1557 12 -1 Team Webby Racing Simon Webb 1523 13 - AeroArrows Bondaero 1465 14 - Torque of the devil Stu 1447 15 - teewrex John Tee 1364 Chris remains top after today, but John S moves up a place to second, pushing Robin down to 3rd. In mid-table, Kev's good result today moves him up to 7th at my expense! A little further down Charles moves ahead of Simon to take 11th. Next up is Monza next weekend with Singapore 2 weeks later and Russia the following weekend - September is a busy month! Don't forget your predictions!

Pete B Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Not a happy bunny - 38 points disappeared in a puff... Well done, John Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG 6969 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Congrats to John S... and glad you found your 'plot' back, John. Having McLaren in my team, it started as a bit of a disaster with Sainz's 'cancelled' race... to turn into a full disaster with Lando falling out of the points during the last lap... Next time better, I guess. What do you mean by "disappeared in a puff", Pete? Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 When Lando 'puffed' over the line one lap early, Chris. I could have typed 'disappeared in a poof' or perhaps a 'pfut-pfut' but that might have been misunderstood or breached forum guidelines.....

McG 6969 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 ... ooh, so you did put some money on the 'orange' guys as well, Pete? Welcome to the club then... but we'll get back up stronger & ready for the next disas... battle. Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Privett Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Just a very quick reminder before I leave the office, in case I don't get a chance to post until much later this evening... Don't forget your predictions! It's looking close with Leclerc first in P2, though only 0.068 seconds quicker than Hamilton with Vettel a furtehr 0.2 seconds behind.

John Privett Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I'm sure the channel4 coverage must be winding up by now, so here are our scores from Monza; Pos Team Manager Pts 1 PSS Power Flyer 196 2 Revers Racing Pete B 167 3 teewrex John Tee 167 4 Team Charles Picd Charles Pic 157 5 Pitts Specials john stones 155 6 Norfolk Flyers Kevin Fairgrieve 153 7 GASTON Formula Chris McG 152 8 Torque of the devil Stu 152 9 Roos Racers rk295ELITE 143 10 Team Webby Racing Simon Webb 142 11 Essex Racing Tony Clark 142 12 AeroArrows Bondaero 125 13 Flying Eagles Gary Goodfellow 119 14 AnyoneSeenBernie johnpflyrc 111 15 iqon racing iqon 111 Top scorer today was Ade with an impressive 196 points - top score in the whole of the fantasygp league was 221.

John Privett Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 The table after Monza now looks like this; Pos Gain/loss Team Manager Pts 1 - GASTON Formula Chris McG 2152 2 - Pitts Specials john stones 2066 3 - Roos Racers rk295ELITE 2044 4 +1 PSS Power Flyer 2005 5 -1 iqon racing iqon 1967 6 - Revers Racing Pete B 1941 7 - Norfolk Flyers Kevin Fairgrieve 1854 8 - AnyoneSeenBernie johnpflyrc 1797 9 - Flying Eagles Gary Goodfellow 1752 10 - Essex Racing Tony Clark 1732 11 +1 Team Webby Racing Simon Webb 1665 12 -1 Team Charles Picd Charles Pic 1664 13 +1 Torque of the devil Stu 1599 14 -1 AeroArrows Bondaero 1590 15 - teewrex John Tee 1531 No changes in the top three, Chris retains his lead. Ade's win today moves him up a place to 4th and the expense of Iqon. Lower down, Simon moves up a place to 11th, displacing Charles to 12th and Stu moves ahead of Bondaero to take 13th. Two weeks now until Singapore, with qualifying being at the normal time for European races - as it's a night race - and the race itself an hour earlier at 1:10pm UK time. I'm off now to give my team a good talking to! Though, to be fair, the chap who did my predictions did a pretty poor job!

John Privett Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Posted by Pete B - Moderator on 08/09/2019 21:30:42: Good race, nearly dideven better but got the first three - in the wrong order I also got the first three - and in the wrong order. It's almost the only thing I did get (nearly) right! But I enjoyed the race, Leclerc is certainly going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future, and I don't see Vettel hanging on much longer. I think he was lucky to get away with only the 10-second penalty that he got for his return to the track, and it was another unforced error that put him off the track in the first place...

McG 6969 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Awesome score, Ade. Congrats. Did you paint your octopi in Skyhawk Gold as well now? ... A foreseen mid-field score for me as 2 of my drivers were DNF... and my predictions only medium-good. Iqon > octopi only work with Ade... you'd better have some elephants... I have two 'pink Dumbos' and they perform an acceptable job (so far)... Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
