McG 6969 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 ... well, it seems that after all, LEC is keeping his points after that 'random' fuel check but that the Scuderia will be fined for the infringement. Cheers Chris ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Kearney Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Oh no! The last minute changes to my team in an attempt to catch Chris backfired on me. Congrats the the top two and to John, Tony and Pete for todays result! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Right then... The scores are up, the channel 4 folks have seen the race, so time to find out what we all did today!

Well done John! Second today is Tony with 200, and third is Pete showing a return to his form of previous years, with 194 points. The rest of us line up behind, and nearly all of us scored over 100... So, has Chris' score of 184 been enough to hold on to top place overall? I think we all know the answer to that, but that will be in the next post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris wins the Modelflying Forumites F1 fantasygp league for 2019. Well done Chris! John S sneaked past Robin to take 2nd, Robin holds on to third, completing out podium. A few more place changes today... Pete edged ahead of Ade into 5th, Tony swapped places with Gary to take 9th and John Tee outbraked Simon into the final (metaphorical!) corner to take 13th. Well done to all of us for reaching the end of the season, and especially to Chris for taking top place. I hope you've all enjoyed taking part, I know I certainly have. And hopefully we'll all be back in 2020 for the first round in Melbourne in a little over 100 days from now! So I'll just close with a slightly premature reminder for Melbourne; Don't forget your predictions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete B Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Well done John S for today's win - great points score! Well done to Chris too on a great season's racing Finally managed to get a 1-2-3 in the right order today, about time too! Pondered binning Leclerc and going for Bottas after P3 yesterday but didn't have the nerve - pity, as a quick calc seems it would have given me another 40+ points. Ah well, there's always next season.... Finally, a huge vote of thanks to John P for yet again performing magnificently as our very own Race Director Ordered my tickets for Spain and Austria 2020 yesterday taking advantage of a 15% Black Friday discount, so now looking forward to a few days at testing in Barcelona in February - snow permitting!

Charles Pic Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Congrats Chris McG for your impressive victory and well done those who grabbed a position promotion at the dying gasp of the season. Those who slipped a place, commiserations just the same. P11 is not where I wanted to be, but next year I get to try again. Thanks to John for the dedicated running of this league, including points updates from a cruise boat in the Baltic - there is commitment! Hope you all have a great Christmas - I’m off!

McG 6969 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Thank you all for your nice reactions, gents. Glad for John S that he ended in a strong way after his slight Brazilian 'disaster'. Many, many thanks to John P for taking care of us and being our very personal 'Bernie'... If my 'Honorary British' citizenship is still valid, it will be a pleasure to be present for next season. Now if you feel getting bored by waiting for Melbourne, you could always pay a visit to our Sabre Dog build thread. Gaston and I would be pleased to hear from you all. Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Chris - absolutely, the 'Honorary British' citizenship offer is still open. In any case, I'm sure it's compulsory for the reigning champion to come back and defend his title! I did have a quick look a little while ago at the Sabre Dog build thread and made a mental note to keep an eye on it - l must get back and see what progress has been made. Thanks for all your best wishes - it's a pleasure running this for us all, and they do make it a bit easier these days. In the "old days" I could only get the race-by-race points by dropping each round's scores into an Excel spreadsheet to work out the differences! Hopefully I'll see you all back here in March - and in other parts of the forum in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG 6969 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Thanks for my 'virtual passport', John. Regarding the "compulsory", I'm wondering about Young Rosberg in 2016 then??? ... Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG 6969 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hi again, Well, it has been a fast seasonal interruption. Winter tests are already there next WE in Barcelona! Hope to 'see' you all back for this new season. Who's going to participate this year? Any newcomers? Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tee Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I will take up the challenge from the bottom as usual. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG 6969 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Great to have you back on board, John. You can just start at the bottom as it is a good position to climb up... Anyone else??? Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
