2008 F1 Predictions - Round 18, Brazil - RESULTS
Brazilian GP results
Right-o, well the finale of the 2008 10 Tenths F1 Predictions competition wasn't quite as gripping as the last couple of laps of the Brazilian Grand Prix, but there are a couple of notable achievements. First of all, our final round winner, with a hefty haul of 11 points, is MrTTraces. I also have to give a special mention to RaiseYourFist, who is, I believe, the only person all season to correctly predict the top 8 finishers - all in the wrong order, but I was impressed, anyway. In the overall table, Pro Racer did what he's been threatening all season and wrapped up the title, by 4 points from ThePenguin, with the Ralf-supporting contingent of the board finishing a further point behind (but I'll probably let Ralf fan have 3rd place on countback, because I'm nice like that ). Thanks to everybody who has joined in the competition this year, I hope you've enjoyed it, and it will, as ever, be back in March.

Congrats pro racer.
So annoyed with myself, due to a combination of being on nights and having a (nearly) 3 year old running me ragged i didn't post my predictions in time What a numpty! So congrats to John for beating me in our private battle. |

Well done Pro Racer.
I made a brave prediction that none of the Ferraris would finish, going for broke. Maybe I should get a job at Toyota! |
