Zdkf1 has finished moving to its new server; hopefully there won't be any teething problems but if anyone does have problems with logging in please tell me, zdkf1 aren't always great at helping quickly :emoticon-0129-call: so it may be easier to start a new account if you do run into problems.
As three-time champions, not606 go into the season as one of the favourites, but were edged out last year by just 6 points. :emoticon-0106-cryin
If you haven't played before, the points system may sound complicated, but it's not that difficult to play, just pick the top ten and pole for each race and have a wild guess at what the pole time will be <confused>.
Here's my usual opening post spiel...


The season is about to start, so it's time for you to make your predictions for this year's interforum league! :biggrin:

There's not long until the first prediction deadline :emoticon-0158-time:, if you are late joining, don't worry, you will get some points for each race you missed (usually 20), and you can still help the forum in the league.

How to play:
  • Register on zdkf1and start your nickname with “not606”. (If you forget, please edit your nickname here.)
  • Add the other entrants whose nicknames start with "not606” as your friends.
  • Predict the pole position, pole time and top 10 finishers for each race.
  • The prediction deadline is 10pm (GMT) on the Thursday before each race :emoticon-0158-time: (except Monaco).
  • How the scoring works on zdkf1 (although the risk factor boundaries are outdated on that link; the categories actually are: very safe ≤19, safe 20-22, moderate 23-25; risky 26-28; crazy 29+).

In addition to helping the forum fight against other f1 forums for the (poorly photoshopped) league trophy, you will be competing for individual awards including:




Not606 finished 3rd out of 10 last year; champions in 2014; 2nd out of 12 in 2013; champions in 2012, and champions in 2011.


If one of your selected drivers doesn't race, then his replacement will be used instead with the same driver class.

Driver classes aren't up for Australia yet, but will presumably be added soon.

Slightly late predictions can be emailed to [email protected] and will be included at zdkf1's discretion but if you post them on here too I will at least include them towards the league.

Good luck everyone! <cheers>
 
Going to try to keep up with predicting this year!

Less than 5 hours before the first deadline everyone :emoticon-0158-time:
Australia is always a difficult one to predict, with a high attrition rate, and the competitive order often different to other races. Will anyone challenge Mercedes? Will Haas surprise with points in their first race?
 
Don't worry @SgtBhaji just post your prediction here and then you can register on the proper site when you've got more time.
(and I usually accept late predictions even when zdkf1 doesn't as long as you don't do it to gain an advantage)
 
I went Hamilton pole, then Merc,Merc,Fer,Fer I think, so we're covering bases!

There's been a on-off extension to the deadline for Australia, so there's still time to get signed up if anyone else is thinking of playing. :emoticon-0148-yes:

Australia Results

First of all I'd like to give a warm welcome to new entrants thefastlane and forumula1 <cheers>. With grandprix not taking part this year :emoticon-0101-sadsm (their forum is down and their members have abandoned ship) that makes the number of forums in the league the same as the number of f1 teams :grin:.
There were 42 predictions across the 11 forums for this race :emoticon-0126-nerd:. If you made a prediction but don't see your name in the top 10 or "also rans" please tell me!
Sardaor takes victory for 2013 champions cliptheapex, with 48 points thanks to 4 spot on and only Grosjean missing from the top 10.
Not606 didn't place in the top 10 this race :emoticon-0106-cryin.

Sorry guys, will try get it right in BAH, atleast we will have something to work on then.
 
I think I over estimated Force India. Obviously Kimi retired. But I reckon it was Grosjean in the points that would have raked in the scores.
 
12 hours until the Bahrain deadline. :emoticon-0158-time:

If you're new to this, get signed up, it takes very little time! :D
