Season Guesses
1. Who will be the first of the 20 announced drivers not to be on the grid of a GP?
2. What will be Sebastian Vettel's final standing in this year Drivers' Championship?
3. How many different drivers will be on the podium all over the season?
4. Which race(s) will have the most number of DNFs?
5. How often will the pole-setter win the GP this year?
6. What will be the point different between teams that finished second and fourth in Constructors' Championship? (in interval of 5 points..0-5,6-10,11-15...you get the idea).
7. Which driver will be the most outclassed by his teammate based on the final Championship standings (i.e. not points but places)?
8. Which driver will have the longest streak of consecutive finishes within the season?
Australia Guesses : note a couple of question changes, mainly cos 3 and 4 were usually the same.
1. Who will start 9th on the grid in Melbourne?
2. The drivers of which team will have the biggest difference in their grid position (not time, only position)?
3. Which team will complete the lowest number of laps in the race?
4. What lap will the first race retirement take place?
5. Which driver will move up most spots from grid (including from pit lane) to race finish?
6. Who will finish the race in 5th position?
7. How many drivers will finish the race in the lead lap including the winner?
8. How great will be the margin between winner and 2nd?
All answers will be as it stands on midnight GMT Sunday
Just put down your answer for each question by the strat of friday practice and muggins here will trawl the FIA website on monday to get the answers, and probably post them by June given my track record.

The first question “Who will be the first of the 20 announced drivers not to be on the grid of a GP?” was answered by no less than 13 participants with "all will start every race". How wrong we were
Nobody named Massa but 3 participants named Bourdais.
Nelson Piquet jr. was chosen 4 times as the earliest driver to be substituted. He was replaced just 1 GP later.
Nobody guessed the right answer to question 2 but honourable mentions should be made to Asterix who thought Vettel would finish 4th and d82, Alapan and garth b who thought that he would end 5th. OTOH Estwald, Makarias thought he would finish 12th in the final standings.
No less than 11 people had the right answer to to question 4 (Australia), while Monaco was mentioned 10 times.
Nobody had question 6 right, but Frogman and Skylark68 came very close with 76-80!
Most of the other guesses were way off.
Nobody had question 7 right either.
Most of us had N.Piquet jr. who finished 12 places behind Alonso, while not competing the entire season.
And finally question 8: Nobody guessed it should be Nico!
Most of us chose Nick Heidfeld who –as we know- was torpedoed by Adrian Sutil at the Singapore GP.
