Life is a funny old thing. You take on responsibilities, you let everyone down, you laugh about it because most of them don’t speak English very well, and you move on. My unplanned children aside, I would like to again say sorry for the lack of results for GtG lately. But I have 2 very good reasons. One you will recognise as a reason I have given in the past, but of course that doesn’t make it any less relevant in this instance. The second one just flat out sucks, but may interest you to know how the results are calculated.
The first one is that I’m lazy. I have a lot going on in real life, but of course it’s just down to sheer crap headedness that these are so late. So sorry.
The second is that I lost some of the old results. Most of them in fact. I won’t go into the reasons why, but suffice it to say that I shan’t be doing that again.
The way it works is that I have the uber-spreadsheet that Garth_B created. I don’t really understand it…I can barely spell excel, let alone work the thing, but it seems to do the job. One part of it is where I enter the grid, who is where etc. Another sheet I enter the guesses from you lot, which is why the formatting is important. It then calculates the scores onto another sheet. I then have to go through a complex and annoying exercise where I add new people to that list, ensure that all scores are calculated right, check for spelling mistakes, correct the formatting of about 40% of you useless bastards who can’t/won’t/don’t do as you’re told, and then I need to put it into something that I can show you. When it’s easy, it’s easy. When it’s not it’s a total bastard.
However, onto the results. Below are the race results for Europe, Canada, Indy and France. At the end are then current standings.
It may bring a smile to your faces to know that I didn’t guess in any of them, so I’m totally rooted, yet still have to do all the work. My own fault, but it seems fate is not without a certain sense of irony. :

Rest assured that the British GP results will be up early next week, as I'm all ready to go with that. Good luck with your guesses. A couple of notes:
G8R I've amended the results for you, and AI. I've merged the 2 names into your correct one.
If anyone has any queries or questions, please PM me and I'll look into ASAP.
Cheers!!
