What happened to -

However, if you miss an entry after Round 1, your predictions from the previous round will be applied. If the previous round was a Sprint round, these predictions will be ignored and the qualifying and Grand Prix predictions will be counted.

Considering those of us in the antipodes didn't really have a chance to swap out Sainz I am pretty chuffed

You're absolutely right, Aysedasi. Excuse me. I forgot. Let me rectify that. It will be interesting to see how your Round 1 worked out for your Round 2.

[Aysedasi]

Thanks! I'm sure it won't make much difference!

[Born Racer]

I wish I could say otherwise, but sadly it didn't work out great!

[Aysedasi]

It is what it is - and I missed Australia too! Completely forgot it was on until I turned the TV on today!

So did I!


I knew the race was on, but forgot to make my votes on Friday evening.
Qualifying was already done when I woke up on Saturday.






If the previous round vote counts, then at least I got the number of pitstops right. And the weather
And I will surely get a few points here or there.


Better than nothing at all, I guess

[Notso Swift]

I hear you- the first year of sprints I didn’t get a single prediction in
