DS 2016 Formula 1 prediction league
Introduction
With Mercedes and Ferrari looking set to continue their dominance over the rest of the field this year it's time for a shake up. Following feedback left in last years thread and some ideas of my own we are going to move away from predicting what happens at the front of the race to a format that looks right down the grid. Performance Tiers The teams will be split into three tiers. Your job will to be pick the driver you think will finish higher than the others in their tier. Teams will be subject to reclassification at set points throughout the year to try and stop it becoming to predictable. This will primarily be based on the teams position in the constructors championship but other factors may be taken into account. The number of tiers will not change. There will always be at least two teams in any one tier. Reclassification will take place at the following points: After the Russian GP - round 4 After the European GP - round 5 After the Italian GP - round 14 Bonus Points Extra points will be up for grabs at each race weekend. These will be awarded for your predictions on: i)The driver qualifying on pole. ii) The driver who best punches above their weight (starting from round 2). This will be determined by the driver who has the best finish relative to their position in the drivers championship at the start of the race. E.G. a driver 20th in the championship before the race who finishes in 12th has improved by +8. If one or more drivers tie points will be awarded to all correct predictions. Tactical predictions and those missed before the start of qualifying Forgot to post your picks in time or maybe you're not sure who to go for. Don't worry. Make your predictions between qualifying and the race and be eligible to score half points. Applicable to tier picks and driver punching above their weight only. Points Scoring Correct prediction: 2 pts Correct prediction made after qualifying but before race start: 1pt Starting Tiers Tier 1: Mercedes, Ferrari Tier 2: Williams, Red Bull, Force India, Toro Rosso Tier 3: Sauber, McLaren, Haas, Renault, Manor Racing Questions Any questions will be answered here. The chairman's decision is final. |
