Both McLaren drivers have been 100% surprises two years in a row now.
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 2024 this is 18.

Reality check on some of our predictions
Popularity Poll WCC prediction:
Team Pred Result RBR 728 -195 Ferr 493 + 98 Merc 404 + 25 McLa 369 +234 Asto 198 -105 RB 98 - 58 Alpi 67 - 4 Will 30 - 13 Saub 22 - 18 Haas 10 + 41While the top four became more exciting internally this year, the gap to the rest of the grid sadly got more accentuated.
The Williams WCC prediction was previously incorrectly stated as 31, which was wrong. Apologies.
The predictions add up to five points fewer than the final result as I didn't assign Lawson's predicted points to any team.

I hope that this was fun for everyone and that nobody got injured. Continue to be careful over the offseason and use a seat belt, also in cars, and we'll see each other again next season! Greetings!
thank you for another hosting Makarias!
