So some of you may have heard of a little browser-based game called “Fantasy Racers” – but for those of you who haven’t, it’s a cool game where you start with a budget of $40 million and have to “buy” drivers who score points for your team.
Anyway, for more info please visit the website here.
As part of my participation, I have decided to make a spreadsheet using all the driver values such as points scored, driver values and driver selections to see how well each driver is doing and who is worth picking or dropping. These stats are turned into lovely graphs which get blogged about after each race...
Various people use various systems to pick their teams: some pick with their heart, some pick theirs based on Friday Practice, some pick on race results and some pick theirs using top secret super-complicated systems. Me? I picked 6 decent drivers at the start of the year and I always seem to get three who do well and three who do poorly – so my system is purely based on mediocrity!
Anyway, it's an interesting way of looking at the game and you should take a look at my post for the Brazilian Grand Prix - and if you have any ideas on what you would like me to look at, please let me know
Cheers,
