Great race by Alonso! Nobody guesseed a 2nd for him but 5 out of 40 guessed him in the podium. Obviously Ferrari boys are very popular in the podium these days, but Fernando has got three podiums already

People here are losing faith in Williams radically, even before seeing the grid, but Macs stays well alive in the heart of our "guessers".

Three "people" have got 5 points this round: SeanValen (congratulations, Sean!), Schummy and...well... BERNIE But a lot of people got a solid 4 points. For example Viss1 , who plays with an unfair advantage: his dog Devo helps him .

BTW, Ghosty, not bad but not enough to scale positions! In Austria, I hope.

I want to welcome two "rookies": maria (3 points) and GadgetMan (less lucky) and I hope they decide to play here regularly.

"Miss-score" for this round is 2 points for those who did not participate.

In the total classification TT6 goes on as leader , although he/she/it ;) and DeathMasteR hAvE sLiPpEd a little bit. Two more players are hunting the leaders, congratulations fisichella_2001.

Estwald and gerry nassar are locked again , and are starting their return to the top. I don't lose sight of Makarias : he was surprised by the "mad" races we have had, but with two solids 4s, he is return to "normal service". Probably dynamite7 and SchutingStar have lost an opportunity to score toward the high zone of the table, both of them have to conform with the miss-score (ironically! )

In the classification table, there is a "t" usual total and then the miss-scores for each player, and then the real Total with the miss-scores added. Don't forget that just those who have played MORE than half of rounds can add miss-scores. People with two missed rounds don't have bonus this round, but they will have it if play next time (because it will be only 2 misses out of 5).

Once again I want to thank at any who play here, with great scores or with unlucky results

We will meet again for GP Austria! (BTW, when Dennis will give us the new toy?)

How come I'm not in this round's result but have scored in your cummulative sheet?
I guessed MS-RB- JPM for Spain......is that not 4 Points?

Sorry. Your "nick" in this round's result is "The", itr is a quirk of my little script I use to extract guesses from the thread.

The same case for "gerry", "Ric", "KWSN", etc., but in your nick it is more ambiguous.

I'll try to be more careful next time!

Actually, it was Kimi who slipped a little bit . Hooray me, I'm going to win this.

Thanx Schummy!!

I have still plenty of work to do to improve. Still don't know why I went for Ralf last round.

Schummy, well done, great work, true professionalism, and excellent humor.

Awsome game.


AND I AM A WINNER!!!! Finally onto the podium, great feeling.


Play that funky music booyyyyyyyyy.


Michael Schumacher on the attack attack attack.

"Michael Schumacher lines up a uncompetitive 3rd, aiming to shutdown the McLarens." FIA video review 1998.
woooooooooooooo

Time to pick up the pace... I'll find some extra-strength scooby snacks for Devo before Austria.

SeanValen, it appears your black op is paying off.

I think I need to review the logic for determing additional points for missing a race.

There are 7 people who missed one race and got the extra points.

It seems that 6 of them received 2 points...



And I got 0!!!

UAUUUUU!!!!!!!
GO RIC GO!!!!!!

SeanValen LOL!
