And the answer is a resounding YES!
Ladies and gentlemen (if there are any), we seem to have a schumacheresque (as in Michael) natural phenomenon amongst us.
dnbn, having dropped all the - admittedly rather short - way back to 7th after Japan, rises from the ashes like a true phoenix, breezes past the entire lead group in one swift, perfectly timed move and wins the F1 Pools Championship for the third consecutive year. I don't know how he does it, but damn he's good! Congrats!
Overall, this was a ridiculously closely fought championship as the entire top 10 was within 3.76 points of each other. That's the equivalent of 2 or 3 correct answers. The closest of the close-but-not-quite bunch was
scheivlak who ends up a meagre 0.23 points short of dethroning the champ. Alas, it was not to be but the runner-up position is his. Congrats!
The third place goes to
D82.
