Ten position penalties are ignored if and only if they are due to disciplinary reasons.
Deadline:
Entries are accepted only if they are submitted/edited before First Free Practice.
Entries that are edited after the beginning of First Free Practice but before I have registered the entries will be ignored.
Scoring rules
-The best eight guessers (closest to the actual pole position time) Score points F1 style, 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1.
-Precision points are given to every participant whose guess was sufficiently close the actual pole position time according to this list:
<-----------Time offsets----------->
Pts Default Modified Layout New Track [s]
10 - 0.050 - 0.100 - 0.150
8 - 0.100 - 0.200 - 0.300
6 - 0.200 - 0.400 - 0.600
5 - 0.400 - 0.800 - 1.200
4 - 0.600 - 1.200 - 1.800
3 - 0.800 - 1.600 - 2.400
2 - 1.200 - 2.400 - 3.600
1 - 2.000 - 4.000 - 6.000
The first race of the season counts as a Modified Layout unless it's brand new.
A track that wasn't used the previous season also counts as a Modified Layout.
A track that hasn't been used for the previous five seasons counts as a New Track.
-Driver Points are given for correctly guessing the driver to take pole position. The amount of points given depends on the current value of the driver, according to this list:
Pts Recent qualifying results
5 0 front row starts in the previous five races
4 1 front row start in the previous five races
3 2 front row starts in the previous five races
2 3-5 front row starts in the previous five races
