Three of the top four guys here scored points in Belgium.

EXPLANATIONS:
Expect: Expectation fulfillment. The driver's current points score as a percentage of the average points placed on him (not rounded off to integer points)
Surprise: The driver's points score as a percentage of the maximum points placed on him plus one. When this number is reached, the driver has achieved a 100% surprise, by beating the highest expectations on him for this season.
Beat: How many players' expectations the driver has managed to beat. The maximum amount is the number of entrants for the season; for 2018 this is 25.

Vettel has the bottom three on his list within reach for next race already! Verstappen's 100% chance is blown, this soon also true for Bottas.

Plenty of positives here with Gasly three points from a 100% surprise and Magnussen and Ericsson too with a shot.
Nice comeback for Grosjean who has scored all his points in the last five races. He's bringing a ketchup bottle to the French cuisine!

This is still just fantasy but KWSN shouldn't be allowed to win in Fantasy either

[KWSN - DSM]

I have this fantasy where I win the Place The Points competition for the second time...

I have this fantasy where I don't end up dead last every year! 

[KWSN - DSM]

I have this fantasy where I don't end up dead last every year! 

 

In a world where I have few claims to fame, I did win the Place The Points competition one year, immediately followed the year after ending dead last, which was a first then and I think never since achieved.

That's one formidable feat, but still, you at least were at the top once.

I won it once (my greatest claim to fame in my lifetime) and am fighting for last this year, does that count?

Naaaah, I don't believe the forecast, I was leading the PTPC  last year for a long time and look where I ended. So I got last place covered!

Not as much as my momentous fall from grace first to last in one season, however if finishing last you most definitely should get a plaque in the Hall of Fame in the annex heralding my special achievement.
