Game concept and scoring
Each player has 10 points which he can freely allocate to the drivers for each race weekend. You can place all your points on one driver, but you can also give up to 10 drivers per weekend points. These points will be multiplied then with the penalties the drivers got awarded during the race weekend (see the table below) and the value of the driver (based on the driver's penalty record in the last 12 months).
You can also guess that no penalties will be applied to any driver during the weekend (this wont be the default guess, you have to actively guess this event). In this case you wont be able to allocate points to any driver of course. If you are right you will score 1000 points.
Penalty Points
Gearbox and engine penalties will NOT count. The breach of the parc ferme rules and a DSQ based on technical grounds neither. But every other driver penalty, even if it wasn't self-inflicted by the driver. Should the FIA come up with a grid/time penalty which is not listed in this table, the same logic will apply as with the penalties below (e.g. 4-places-grid-penalty = 4 points). Penalty points will apply for the race where the driver breached the rules and not where he had to take the penalty (e.g. a collision in Race 1 awarded with an grid penalty for Race 2 will count for Race 1)
Points | Penalty ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 | Fines 2 | Reprimands, 2-places-grid-penalty 3 | 3-places-grid-penalty 5 | 5-places-grid-penalty, 5-seconds-penalty 10 | 10-places-grid-penalty, 10-seconds-penalty 20 | 20-places-grid-penalty, 20-seconds-penalty, Drive-Through-Penalty 30 | 30-seconds-penalty, Stop-and-go-penalty, Quali DSQ 50 | Race DSQ/ban ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Driver values
The driver value is based on the drivers penalties of the last 12 months. The start value is 10. For every race without a penalty the value increases by 1 point. If the driver gets a penalty his value will decrease by the amount of penalty points he got for this race devided by 10 (e.g. a 10-seconds-penalty would decrease the driver's value by 1 point). The values will be rounded in the end. The driver value can not fall under 1 point.

Rules
- You have to submit your guess until the start of the first practice for every race weekend.
- If you are failing to submit your guess until the deadline, your most recent guess from the previous races will count
- Submitting guesses with fractions (e.g. 2.5, 4.25, 6.33) is not allowed.
- You can change from race to race your entry as much as you want to.
- You can edit your entry as often as you want, but just until the deadline.
- In case of an driver change in F1 before the deadline your points wont be transfered to the drivers replacement. So amend your entry in this case.
- If this driver change will be after the deadline your points will be transfered just for this race to your drivers replacement. Unless your driver scored already in that race weekend penalty points (for example during practice) and will be replaced after that.
