First of all, sorry everyone for the delay. Feeling much better already although still undergoing some physical theraphy at the moment.

Well, enough mumbling...

Before I announce the final results, here are the results for Round 16, China.

1. 11th on the grid: Liuzzi

2. Team with biggest grid different: Toyota, Honda

3. Team with lowest no of laps completed: Super Aguri

4. First team with both drivers retired: None

5. Driver that move up the grid most from start to finish: Vettel

6. Finished in 6th: Liuzzi

7. Drivers that finished same lap as winner: 11

8. Winning margin: 5-10 secs

As usual, when unpredictable name like Liuzzi ended up in two of the answers, the overall score is lowered significantly. However, Zawed still managed to win this round with a respectable score of 3.

[shays]

Final round, Round 17 - Brazil

1. 11th on the grid: Barrichello

2. Team with biggest grid different: Williams

3. Team with lowest no of laps completed: Renault

4. First team with both drivers retired: Renault

5. Driver that move up the grid most from start to finish: Nakajima

6. Finished in 6th: Heidfeld

7. Drivers that finished same lap as winner: 6

8. Winning margin: 0-5 secs

Dnbn, estoril85, estwald and our championship contender - garth_b top the chart with 3 points. However, scheivlak managed to score 2 points to maintain his lead in the overall standings. A disastrous round for fullcourseyellow that see his championship aspiration dissapears at the final hurdle (yet again...??)

3. How many different drivers will be on the podium all over the season? - 8

5. How often will the pole-setter win the GP this year? - 10

6. What will be the point different between teams that finished second and fourth in Constructors' Championship? (in interval of 5 points..0-5,6-10,11-15...you get the idea). - 66-70

7. Which driver will be the most outclassed by his teammate based on the final Championship standings (i.e. not points)? - Barrichello and Davidson

8. How many races can Sato go without taking another car out? - 17 races, equivalent to one whole season....!!!!
