    [HR][/HR]RULES

    Choose your driver pairing(s) before the deadline.

    1. Choose a tier (your first is free)
    2. Choose your '+' driver from that tier
    3. Choose a '–' driver from the same tier
    4. Players from round 12 who don't pick a new driver pairing or buy any add-ons will have their choices from Belgium carried over to Italy
    5. The points scored by your '–' driver will be subtracted from the points scored by your '+' driver to give you your score for the race
    6. If you have enough points you may use them to 'buy' a second tier (20 pts each)
    6b. If you have more than enough points you may use them to 'buy' a rather smart points booster (see Add-ons thread for info)

    [HR][/HR]TIERS

    Tier 1
    Red Bull: Vettel / Webber
    McLaren: Button / Hamilton
    Lotus: Raikkonen / d'Ambrosio



    Tier 2
    Ferrari: Alonso / Massa
    Mercedes: Schumacher / Rosberg
    Sauber: Kobayashi / Perez



    Tier 3
    Williams: Maldonado / Senna
    Force India: di Resta / Hulkenberg
    Toro Rosso: Ricciardo / Vergne



    Tier 4
    Caterham: Kovalainen / Petrov
    Marussia: Glock / Pic
    HRT: de la Rosa / Karthikeyan

    [HR][/HR]HOW DRIVERS SCORE POINTS

    please log in to view this image


    NB. 'Qualifying' points allocations take post-qualifying penalties into account and are therefore based on race start positions. For example, if Massa qualifies in 4th place but receives a five place grid penalty then points will be allocated based on his race start position of 9th. There is therefore a double hit for drivers who receive a penalty resulting from a stewards inquiry. Time penalties: 2 points docked from score and potentially a lower race finish. Grid penalties: 3 points docked from score at current race and a grid drop at the following race.

    Done, although I've assumed d'Ambrosio will race in Grosjean's stead until we are told otherwise.

    Done, Roads. I'm not feeling much love in the forum for d'Ambrosio.

    He hasn't been confirmed yet, has he? Keep an eye on that because if they use someone else you're all free to come back and change your minds before 9am Thursday. No - Friday. I meant Friday.

    That's a big outlay, Miggins - I hope it pays off. I've listed DRS against your first choice but, as you know, if it's needed I'll apply it whichever driver pairing gives you the best payback.

    OK, Jules - done, thanks.

    Deadline Passed

    The deadline has now passed, which means driver selections can no longer be made unless you have a joker left to play (i.e. you're not cosicave or El_Bando). If you want to play your joker then you can still make a driver selection as long as you do so before 9 A.M. tomorrow, Saturday 7 September.

    New Rule

    The possibility of introducing a new rule to restrict driver choices to those drivers who can still win the WDC was discussed in the Belgian GP +/&#8211; thread. This would not affect people who carry over their drivers from the previous race.

    In my case (for those who've noticed I've retained my original driver pairing from the first race throughout the season) I would be allowed to continue with that pairing even when one or both of them is/are out of contention.

    If you want to choose a new free pairing, add a second or third pairing, or buy any add-ons, however, then all your drivers must be mathematically capable of winning the WDC.

    To implement this rule I would like everyone who has selected a new driver pairing in both the Belgian and Italian GPs to make their opinion known and if anyone votes 'nay' (or 'no' or 'niet' or 'bollocks' etc.) then we will leave the introduction of this rule until next season.

    Thanks for reading now please vote 'yay' or nay'.

    Blast! Too late, I forgot about this when I had the chance yesterday morning.

    Well, I expect my lead to be drastically reduced, if not quite nullified. Both McLaren drivers or Alonso pitted against D'Ambrosio would seem the best way to go this time; and it is looking a very strong event for any with a Mercedes engine. And D'Ambrosio is so rusty that KERS would seem a bargain.
