Ramblings about forum progressions in the 2016 GP2 Two Worlds Prediction Competition:

Autosport: Best forum of the season. Most numerous number of players, eight, where four were in Top 10 of the season. Bleu, TyreSmokeDownshift, Marklar, round winners. Best player was Kev00, rookie of the season.

Nextgen-Auto: Five players, with two of them in Top 10 of the season. SUTIL, round winner and best player.

Los Tuercas: Five forumers, with only one of them in Top 10 of the season. Myself as round winner and best player. facha and mrgalende also round winners.

Ten-Tenths: Three players. No round winners. Best player was GM10.

CarAndDriverTheF1: Two forumers, with two of them in Top 10 of the season. IVAN - as the Champion, best scorer in a round and round winner. Henderseil also round winner.

Pasión F1: Three players. All of them jpollet, Mara Lopez and mdounce round winners. The latter was also their best player.

F1Revolution: Only one forumer, Materfer, who also was round winner.

ClubF1: Only one player, Joselo, who also was round winner.

In an aftermath, the season showed again a wane in the number of players, perhaps because GP2 isn't a novelty and many drivers are almost unkown to the users. Fortunately, it was TV presence in Latin America, so people of forums of those latitudes could see the races during the year. But after all, we have to show gratitude to many users who trusted and put consistence to participate in this Competition.

About 2017 Nextgen-Auto, Autosport, Ten-Tenths, Los Tuercas, CarAndDriverTheF1, Pasión F1 and F1Revolution are ensured to continue; the rest will be put in consideration. Alas, we're opened to new communities to join - If you are in a forum or Facebook group where is interest on GP2 Series and want our Prediction Competition running there, give notice to us!

On a last note, you may have noted there are FR 3.5 and Formula E Two Worlds Prediction competition running alongside GP2 one - that is cause these series are the main feeder series of F1, regarding drivers, or an alternate one, regarding Formula E. These politics are keen to continue in 2017. These politics are keen to continue in 2017. As we said before, the key name of the competition is "Two", since that number refers that the nature of the Two Worlds Prediction Competitions are following the predictions of the most important runner-up formula series which are under Formula One.
