This race also saw the first changes being made to the teams. BOF (i.e. me) benefitted from 2 changes to his team moving him up 11 places into the top 6. Unfortunately for the other teams who made transfers, it didn't work out that well and they all dropped down the table.
Inevitably while some are climbing the league, others are falling, and the biggest faller this week was CoyoteBR who dropped 29 places from 13th to 42nd overall as all 4 of his drivers failed to make a mark in Sepang.
This race, far more than the other ones this season, shows how quickly the picture can change in this competition so anyone who thinks they might be too far off the leader just needs to carefully consider their team, what changes can be made or re-arrangements within the team. Because there are 16 races left!! Imagine the difference you could make if you make it NOW !?!?
As always, all tables and points distributions are outlined below.
