OK, here goes. Correct answers for round 17, i.e. the mess that was the 2004 Japanese GP:

And the results:
New winners for a change! Marcel Schot and AussieF1 join the prestigious race winners' club after sharing the top step of the podium at Suzuka. QdfV is a close third.
Congrats!

And the overall standings on the eve of, if not exactly destruction, then at least the last race of the season and a looming winter (or summer, whichever is appropriate) break:

Looks like this one's between dnbn who's been leading the thing since round 2 and Makarias who's been his more or less close #1 challenger for much of the season. In the best-of-the-rest battle, Viss1 sneaks into third place. Damn you, that place was so mine!
Good luck for the final round, everyone!
