"1. One race will have to be abandoned altogether due to a sudden change in the weather"
wouldn't this mean the race doesn't start to begin with ? cos so red flag with about 2 laps to go isn't really abandoned |

You're in the 2.5'ers... Overboost 1. Turkington, Jordan, Cammish, Neal, Sutton and Cook will enter the last weekend in title contention. 2. Plato won't hit the magic 100 win mark 3. Collard will outscore Plato over the season 4. Snetterton will be wet so we don't get to see all three different tyre compounds raced as planned. 5. We won't see more winners than last season. 1) No 2) Yes 3) No 4) No 5) Yes |

Those of us who only managed one correct prediction:
crmalcolm 1) Collard will outscore Plato in the overall championship. 2) Team Dynamics will have the highest two Hondas in the championship, followed by BTC Racing. 3) One team will change cars during the season. 4) R30 will only see 25 cars take the grid. 5) The race winners will be the same 3 drivers at both Thruxton meetings. 1) No 2) No 3) Yes - Laser Tools 4) No - although only 22 finished 5) No - only Cook doubled up Matt K 1. Both Cammish and Neal will be in mathematical title contention coming into last round of the season. 2. BMW will win at least 5 races. 3. Goff won't score any podiums. 4. Both BTC drivers will be in the Top 10 of the championship. 5. AMD will underperform and will be the worst of three Honda outfits. 1) No 2) Yes 3) No 4) No 5) No Alfisti 1) AmD will lose their win virginity and go on to collect several more. 2) Sonic, Camm, Tordoff, Neal, Plato, Cook, Turks, Tingram will arrive at Brands in the autumn with a mathematical chance of being champion. 3) Team #HARD will have more driver changes than JP has excuses. 4) Tingram will be flying, but will take too long to get airborne early season, thus preventing him bagging the Championship before Brands. Ditto Turks. 5) The worst performing drivers will be Crees, the Excelr8 duo and the other HARD driver I've already forgotten about (not Boardley or Goff both of whom will do well considering what they're driving). 6) Rumours of JP in a works Kia will appear in a 2020 speculation thread. 1) Yes 2) No 3) No 4) No - Turks flew early 5) No 6) Not counted, it's a fact of life BillWiskins 1. Every team with a Civic of any kind wins at least one race 2. Astras improve over the year but never win 3. Louise asks Mark Blundell how the Audi compares to an F1 car 4. Turkington wins championship despite few overall victories 5. More than 5 drivers with a mathematical chance of the title heading into Brands GP 1) No - Simpson Racing 2) No 3) Yes 4) No 5) No CharliesDad 1) Blundell to pull out mid season citing poor driving standards. 2) Nic Hamilton to be more competitive than expected. Be running in the top 3 on a last lap only to be pressured into crashing out on his own. 3) Dan Lloyd to make a couple of mid season appearances. 4) Plato to take Ash Sutton out while fighting for the lead at least once. 5) Less than 10 winners throughout the season after 2 seasons of 15+. 1) No 2) No 3) No 4) Yes (IIRC) 5) No jsmee 1) Team HARD will make 2 driver changes across their 4 cars 2) A second Corolla will appear before the end of the year 3) Mike Bushell will return for at least one round 4) One driver will win all 3 races in a weekend 5) An AmD driver will be in championship contention into the final weekend 1) No 2) No 3) Yes 4) No 5) No mark_l 1)Team HARD will fail to complete the season when the revolving door gets jammed up with drivers. 2)Jason Plato will say something complementary about Matt Neal, the pair will be seen drinking together in the Kentagon after the last round of the season. 3)Tom Chilton will realise he is getting old when he passes a mirror without stopping to admire himself in it. 4)At least 1 race will have a start delayed while marshals pick up the bangles dropped by Louise Goodman. 5)Tim Harvey will try to drop an made up word in to commentary to win a bet. David Addison will fail to notice it. 1) No 2) No 3) No 4) No 5) Yes ?;/ |

Thanks for the review of our "predictions"
For the first time in many years I've managed to claw my way up to 4/5, which given that in previous attempts I think the best I've done is 2 is quite the improvement! Well done all for the correct ones. |
