on finishing positions, it's going to be based on who crashes out of the
race
Each driver will be worth different points, with a drivers value being
adjusted after each round, depending on whether they crashed out or
not. At the start of the year, each driver was worth 3pts, the
adjusted after each round:
- Increase value by 2 if they did not crash out.
- Decrease value by half (& round down) if they did crashed out.
For each round, everybody can pick three drivers. If any of your drivers
crashes out of the race then you score score points. If a driver you picked
is involved in a crash, the points who will be awarded will the that drivers
value. If one of your drivers is involved in a crash that leads to a safety
car period you will be awarded one and a half times that drivers value. Or
if your driver causes a red flag you will get double points. When picking
your drivers consider whether to go for somebody with a high value or a
driver worth less but more likely to crash out. If a race is restarted, a
driver can be awarded for crashed in both halves! You will also score points
awards for 10 second penalties and DQ's
Point Scoring:
- 1xDV if your driver crashes out
- 1.5xDV if your driver causes a safety car period
- 2xDV if your driver causes a red flag
- 3xDV if your driver is DSQ from the race for driver misconduct (ie a non-technical reason)
- 5pts if your driver earns a 10 second penalty
(DV: Driver Value)
It's driver mistakes only, not mechanical faults. [Althought, I reserve the
right to pick'n'choose as we go along
]Now for a complicatred bit: In order to keep work down [I've got other
t'ings to do] I'm going to write a quick program to automatically strip out
entries from a page saved from the BB. This means that you entries will have
to included a line as follows:
[[[Your name/Driver1/Driver2/Driver3]]]
sub'ing in as required. Drivers should be entered as the first four digits of their surname.
ie Hakk, Vill, Salo, Fren. In the case of Schumacher's use RSch or MSch. [don't worry
about case]
As an example, my entry is:
[[[MrA/RAIK/MASS/YOON]]]
Hope you can follow that, if not you know where to get me or just pick the three drivers
you think will crash and learn as we go along. Oh, and please use the same name as before!
The driver values are as of hungary last year (the last time this was run). The new drivers
have been set to the average value (including Yoong who started after Hungary)
