my picks: Ricciardo, Massa, Kimi, Sainz, Magnussen

2ndMoparMan, you're over: 17+17+7+1 = 42 (thanks Reynard)
If you don't revise by the end of next week I'll swap Massa (7) for Stroll (5)

Reynard, you're over: 19+17+6 = 42 (is that what the ;) is for?)

IMOA, he did pick Vandoorne. But even I'm shocked: Alonso cost 19 when he rejoined McLaren, now at 3 I thought most people would choose him.

M4FFU/bubbles, random, cuda and wonder I'm missing your picks (you still have a week)

No, I just managed to confuse myself when pondering combinations & who Mopar really wanted (assuming typo).:o I really want the Red Bulls + Perez.

Blerpa
March 15th, 2017, 10:28 AM
My ideal choice was to have Ham-Kimi-Alonso, but Keith chose it before me. Fair game, so I'm left with Vandoorne... I would have appreciated a more experienced driver as Alonso, whom is a champion (thus the idea of having a team of 3 world champions) and like a Valentino Rossi has some added value even when in difficulties, but alas I'll take a chance on Stoffel.
I didn't want to give up Kimi for cheaper drivers (Williams, Renault and Force India ones, for example): although at Ferrari I always liked him, the car could be really good and I felt like taking a gamble on him.
Magnussen is there for comic relief. LOL

2ndMoparMan, those were just taken, three posts above yours, by Reynard. nm, Reynard changed his team (grid below will be updated later)

Mario, indeed. I entered your team under M4FFU's row on the spreadsheet.

Blerpa, I had McLaren (and Renault) cheaper by 1 each, but I figured they would develop their cars throughout the season much more than Haas and STR. Even Force India may be 1 too much now that I think about it.

As for Haas' kmag is no joke.

Grosjean is way overated imo. Last year guti was shit, but he evenly performed RoGro for 3/5ths of the season. The first 1/5th haas had the fortune to score, and the other 3 or 4 races​ jury's still out.

balki
March 16th, 2017, 10:49 AM
Cuda, those was my original picks. As much as I like Alonso, McLaren has disgusted me.

dodint, yes, they're 0.5 each, so you have to get both (I guess you can dump Wehrlein if you have somehting against him)
1 Sauber 1 + 2 Ericsson + Wehrlein

Thanks Reynard (all clear #2 drivers, interesting)

[B]Team changes allowed until the start of next Friday's first practice (next Thursday on for the Western Hemisphere)

Mario, in the 12 races both Haas's finished it was a 6-6 split. I really wanted to put a single drive at a cost of 1, KMag was the best choice once I decided to up Vandoorne to 2
Lowe is borderline awesome, not sure if Williams have the budget to develop much this year though. Even if they do they seem to be a clear #4 with no threat of going up to 3rd (and Force India and Renault being either too little or too late).

CudaMan

My Alo pick is banking on McLaren putting a Mercedes PU in the car at some point later in the season and scoring some points.

Which means they'll plod on with Honda and 150-place grid penalties for the second half of the season after they've run through their 4 PUs. :)

Kimi (13)

I like how you think they'll manage on 4PU's until then. I suspect their first grid penalty will be in Malaysia!

balki
March 22nd, 2017, 08:26 AM
I like how you think they'll manage on 4PU's until then (October 1st); Malaysia is the 15th GP this year.
The gamble may pay off: even if they're pointless until then they can get past the bottom four teams in October and November.

Has this ever happen before? Switching engine manufacturer mid-season? This must be way more challenging than swapping drivers mid-season, right?

If Cuda can think of it, maybe McLaren has thought of it too and already has the chassis ready to mate up with a Mercedes PU? (Pointless to actually talk to Mercedes if they haven't even figure out a way to accept Mercerdes engine...)

Although no longer a fan of Honda, but still feel sorry for them. I feel even worse for Alonso.

"It's absolutely possible to win a championship as a customer" - Paddy Lowe (http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/350820/lowe-williams-can-win-as-customer-team/)

balki
March 23rd, 2017, 10:14 AM
Not sure, I think the standard ECU (still provided by McLaren Electronic Systems?) and lack of aides limits the software side of it.
Do power units use the same fuel and lubricants across constructors?

FaultyMario
March 23rd, 2017, 10:17 AM
Fuel and lubricants, nope.

Each team has their own supplier to manufacturer-set values.

Petronas is apparently the shizzle for the Merc PU. And I suspect the Mobil prepared fuels for the RBs will be better than the Elf-Total for the Renaults.

Not that it makes a difference to me as I have both TRs, but it has been clarified by the FIA (because of engine component allocation and penalites), that Kvyat gets TR1 and Gasly takes TR2. Kvyat does not go back to TR2.

I expect Ricciardo to do well in Mexico with a new engine and the superior RB suspension.

This is quite funny with hindsight.

Just 36 points behind the leader? Incredible end of the season for me! 😎

Thanks to Max's resurgence, I'm finally able to shake off that unlucky position 13... whew!

Got a racin' score.

At the very least.

Going into last round with two tied for the lead and the next two only just behind. FIA should get us to organise the championship :)

True to form, unless I'm mistaken, we're the last two champions as well. I won the last time I played but that was a few years ago.

Wow, that's tight indeed.

Will Hamilton screw up again? This probably won't happen a lot... unless after clinching his championship he just let down his guard?

Or will Ferrari blow up again? Chance of this should be higher...

Assuming they both start and finish the last race without any major incident, my money is still on Hamilton...

So IMOA will probably win the final race and the season...

But maybe my prediction will jinx him. :p

My best hope is that Ferrari blows up RAIs car for no reason, as they do. And then both VET/BOT finish on the podium.

And the other year when Hamilton had it won with quite a few races to go he kinda went to sleep and Rosberg won the last like 5 races

Congrats to the new champ!

Ditto!

Also wanted to give Random a congrats too as all season I was really just (in my mind) battling with him in the team Finn side competition. ;) Stoffel & Lance vs Fernando & Nico. Experience beats youth this time. Nice end of the season Russ. :up:

Random
November 28th, 2017, 07:54 PM
Ha, thanks!

TEAM FINN! :hard:

edit: looked closely at the season points just now--yeah, that really was an interesting race within the race. Nico and Fred finishing in the points in the last race did it for me.

I was soooo good at the start of the season but then Ferrari shit the bed and Toro Rosso as good as went backwards due to lack of development. :(
