Phoenix1 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Nations Cup

I know it's probably a stupid question but how exactly does the nations cup work?

From what I see it's somewhat unfair a championship is based almost soley in the Americas is going to be won by Amercians (I mean North/South Amercia NOT USA) so should the cup not be done on a percent basis or some kinda?

The highest finishing driver in each race scores the points for that country, so Tracy and Carpentier finishing 1-2 only gives 20 points, not 36.

It does give an advantage to cuntries with lots of drivers, but it's an accurate reflection of the overall significance of each nation. Kudos to them for identifying Servia as Catalan as well.

i think it is a silly idea, just to draw in casual onlookers to rally behind their driver, even if they don't know him- F1 doesn't need this as everydriver is easily ID'd by the falgs they always present them with.
nations cup- do the 'nationals' really care?
