To be really honest,I didn't base my predictions on the qualifying. I just went with my favorites and what I'd like to see happen. You wouldn't want to believe it anyway Matteh so if you really care so much as to bicker about it,fine,guess I am out of this then.
P.S. Ironically,as it turns out mine were really crappy predictions anyway...

Good race for McLaren, dire for Ferrari.

My predictions were way off. Never going with my head again.

This seems far too defensive for some reason. I called you a latecomer because you were late...coming...

 

[nikhil1772]

It wasn't an innocuous post by any means,you know it. As you allude me without referring to me directly,and then change your predictions according to qualifying results. I thought you were better than that...

 

[Matteh]

Was referring to you and Jamee as latecomers because you came late. Jeez, paranoid much?

 

[Johnners]

Haha, someone has a guilty conscience...

 

[nikhil1772]

Ok,so its two not one,whatever... does that make your change in prediction any more valid?... now,paranoid who? I did kind of ask permission to join... and left it for BI to decide. You had your fantasy league two years back (which i liked too)... and you should have known better that BI was not goin to let me in anyway.

Haha, Mitchell can be a sniping, snobbish and downright rude member at the best of times (), but clearly here he wasn't being malicious.

The cut of time will be the start of the Race

the rule was like this...so i don't have any problem if u predict even after the qualifying...but if majority feel the other way ..i am ready to change the cut off time to..Start of qualifying

Guys pls no need to fight..fight in the competition

[Somerset]

Given my knowledge of Formula 1, I'm happy with sixth place.

Ha,much ado about nothing... Me thinks its righter if preds are made before qualifying. Its your call... Its better for us 'latecomers' if you keep this week's score, but its fine even if you decide not to.

 

[pinchy81]

very suprised with 3rd atm tbh and yeah change it to start of qualifyingmakes it fairer imo

 

[99*]

Maybe making one of the questions about a qualifying would be a easy solution?

 

[headhunter]

Meh, could be last.
