Congrats to brucelok2003 (TT) and kerrmanningjarv (TT), our inaugural round winners! Mentions to Nustang70 (AS), who notched Pic as R1 winner, and Makarias (AS), who put correct R2 victor. Alas, congratulations to all 47 concursants for the interest they showed in this new season!
At Forums Championship, Ten-Tenths takes the lead at the start, close followed by much-hyped Thef1; Autosport, best rookie with its 3rd place.
Observations:
R00 Championship:
- kamikaze666 (CB): Omitted top 8 of Teams Championship.
- renaultargentina (TH): Put Villa and Filippi in his picks, for the moment these parts aren't valid but could be active in case these drivers would enter later in the season.
- Christian 4 ruedas (LT): Posted predictions for Championship Round only.
R01 Barcelona:
- Speed-freak (TT): Forgot FL R1 and entire Race 2 predictions.
- Mach3 (TT) and BMWFAN (CB): Skipped poleman.
- Sammyed (VT): Put Vietoris twice (3rd and 7th) on his R1 predictions, so these parts of it weren't valid.
- chunterer (TT) and Rf1 Fan (TT): Picked D'Ambrosio twice (3rd and 6th) on their R2 forecasts, so these parts of it also weren't valid.

Thanks Mekola, great turnaround.

Apologies for the oversight on my R2 forecast!!!!!

Of all the people to pick 'twice' I chose D'Ambrosio who didn't figure at all.

GRRR I am leading the championship but was too busy to put predictions for Monaco!
