    Hmm... I do hope they don't attract the kind of WUMs and trolls BBC 606 encouraged. That would be so unfair.

    must have been quite boring last year predicting the race winner, hopefully it will be a lot tighter this year, should make this more entertaining

    Well, to be honest, alot of people were hoping for a different victor, but put Vettel near the top as he was most likely to win anyway.

    Driver groupings have been decided, so I've posted on all the other forums. Grandprix.com have declined the invitation.

    One slight correction to the OP here: I use the accuracy of the pole time guess for a tie breaker when people are level on points.

    So then folks, sign up (not forgetting the Not606) part, and get your predictions in.
    Get them in early you can always change them, where as if you forget its to late!

    4 days left!

    Any ideas of what pole laptime could be?
    I've gone for a pole time of 1.23.9.

    When you go to pick your top 10, should there be points in the boxes ?.

    I've gone for a few tenths off 2011

    There should be, the email I got a week or so back gave out the points for the first 3 but it's not showing on the website yet.

    i went slower than that, i did consider the blown diffuser in my time, and I know the teams hadnt developed that much, but didnt Red Bull have it at the start of the season?

    I reckon my prediction of Vettel retiring and Senna to get 10th might be a tad optimistic. <laugh>

    Get them in by 10pm tonight guys. The more predictions the better, only the top two predictions count for us, we have a crown to protect ;)

    number of entrants for each forum for australia:

    not606 16
    muzz606 5
    new-606 7
    606v2 1
    ja606 6
    cliptheapex 12
    vivaf1 1
    thef1forum 1
    f1world 6
    f1technical 4

    f1fanatic have two entrants but I'm sick of inconsistant moderation of my posts (sometimes treated as spam, sometimes allowed) so I'm forgetting about f1fanatic

    There's still 10 people from 606 playing, so I will see if I can contact them to find out where they call home now, but I won't count them in the league.

    GPFocus & F1Rejects were interested in taking part but didn't get back to me before the deadline. Hopefully they will join for the next race. There are three other forums invited who do not have entrants.

    Whoever is sir_eddie_jordan, I have no idea which forum you are playing for (if any).

    There will be a slight change to points scoring from last year: if a forum places more than twice in the top 10, the best two score points and the others are ignored completely rather than taking up places in the top 10 like last year.
