The standings after Austria:
Pos Name Tot Latest 1) Everyone 101 101
I've been slow with posting these interesting results because as long as we don't know how long the season will be, we don't even know what our entries are!
For now I'm working on the rather shaky assumption that the season will be 15 races long, as I read on Wikipedia that this is Ross Brawn's goal. And I'm a Brawn believer.
The entries
The following list shows the maximum, average ("popularity poll") and minimum bets on each driver. Column "Diff" is Popularity Poll difference to 2019, when there were 21 races.

Ferrari got WCC hype prior to the 2019 season, not so anymore. McLaren vs Racing Point predicted to be close!
If the Popularity Poll turns out to be a 100% correct prediction, the final standings would look like this:

Interesting start!
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 2019 this is 23.

Betting low on Norris feels pretty bad for now.

Your entries in these lists are scaled and rounded off for a 15 race season, so it might all seem strange to all but SpaceHorseParty who did post a 1515 point entry.
The PTPC forecast
Will appear after the 70th anniversary GP.
