The F1PU Predictions Championship for 2012 visits Austin, Texas, USA for round 19!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is how the game is played:
For each GP: - Each person selects 4 teams, each ranked 1-12 and the total must come to a MINIMUM of 27. Ranking is as follows:
1 - Red Bull
2 - McLaren
3 - Ferrari
4 - Mercedes
5 - Lotus
6 - Force India
7 - Sauber
8 - Scuderia Toro Rosso
9 - Williams
10 - Caterham
11 - HRT
12 - Marussia
- Of those 4 teams, the player chooses one driver from each to score their points for them in the race (I.E. Williams, Caterham, Hispania & Marussia, and the player chooses Senna, Petrov, de la Rosa & Pic). Points will be discussed later on.
- Extra points are available for correctly predicting who will have the fastest lap time in practice, the GP and who will hold pole. There are also points for who will be on the podium too. Every driver is available for selection, not just the drivers chosen earlier.
- Players may also select the Best constructor (the team with the best result in the weekend) and the Worst Constructor (the worst overall result).
POINTS
- For each constructor chosen (so both drivers from the 4 teams chosen), points are scored as follows:
1st: +25
2nd: +18
3rd: +15
4th: +12
5th: +10
6th: +8
7th: +6
8th: +4
9th: +2
10th: +1
All other cars running at finishing flag: +0.5
Cars not running at finishing flag: -10
Cars failing to qualify: -15
Front row starting position on the grid: +5
- For the 4 drivers chosen, points score as follows:
1st: +25
2nd: +18
3rd: +15
4th: +12
5th: +10
6th: +8
7th: +6
8th: +4
9th: +2
10th: +1
All other cars running at finishing flag: +0.5
- For the 4 drivers chosen, for each position they move up the grid, they score an extra 3 points. E.G. a driver starts 18th and finishes 16th, the driver scores 6 points. No points are lost if they go backwards.
- The last load of points are scored as follows:
Correct Driver for fastest Practice lap: +3 pts.
Pole Position: +3 pts.
Fastest race lap: +3 pts.
Podium finish: +3 pts.
OR
Correctly predicted podium place: +5 pts.
If all three in correct predicted places: +5 pts. extra (making 20 in total)
Best Constructor: +5 pts.
Worst Constructor: +5 pts.
Predictions should be made in the way as the example post below:
EXAMPLE POST
TEAMS: Williams, Caterham, HRT, Marussia
DRIVERS: Senna, Petrov, de la Rosa, Pic
FASTEST PRACTICE LAP: Karthikeyan
POLE POSITION: Maldonado
PODIUM: Kobayashi, di Resta, Ricciardo
FASTEST RACE LAP: Glock
BEST CONSTRUCTOR: HRT
WORST CONSTRUCTOR: Red Bull
