My username seems to have gained some numbers

Didn't bother with any changes and got 2 places out of it. Not too shabby

I convinced Erica to make some changes and erm, well...

Well done to gorrie our new leader after Monaco Pretty close at the top though

[Corranga]

Turkey this weekend...

I probably shouldn't grumble considering my current league position ... but... I still can't get my head around the loonies that came up with Metro's scoring system.
Hispania is an example.... you look at the Constructors score on Metro & they are -16 (4th from bottom). Mercedes though are on 46 (4th from top), with Renault on 38 (5th from top)

Yet, look at Metros Driver Stats...
They have scored Bruno Senna higher than Schumacher, Petrov & Rosberg.
Chandhok is higher still, also beating Kubica... WTF !!

I think they put too much emphasis on how many places are made up on race day... rather than what the finishing positions actually are. If you have Hamilton, maybe qualifies in 4th... (you get nothing for the qualifying anyway with Metros scoring).. and then manages to keep 4th position at the flag, he gets 12 points.
But, back marker starting in 19th, who manages to stay out of trouble & just bring it home in, lets say 13th due to natural attrition... they will get 13 points for that.

Crackpots.

I see you are taking it far too seriously

[gorrie]

Damn straight....

[cla5h]

Didn't know you got points for making up places - I'll maybe change my diddy team to one which has a chance of finishing.
