Very interesting approach. They are the results of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. I shall be interested in seeing how this pans out for you. I can see the plan is to always predict with the results of the previous race.

Yes. Last season, I went with the same predictions every race. The theory was to see whether sticking to the same selection balanced out against temporary fluctuations.

The saying is 'form is temporary, class is permanent'.

For this season, I'm working on form being temporary, but just enough to carry forward to the next race and get a similar result. It's hoped that the changes in form are progressive enough to still get good results.

Who knows - probably nothing will be confirmed?

I did this for a few rounds last year when I was traveling and busy, and it worked better than most of my normal predictions!

Intermittent wet races will be the biggest bugbear
