RE: F1 Prediction Game (Interforum League) 2016 - pob - 29-07-2016 Yep, I'll include it in the results. Hungary race recap: (only just watched it properly) Ricciardo challenged the Mercs in the opening corners, but Hamilton and Rosberg ended up ahead. Hamilton possibly played silly buggers backing Rosberg into Ricciardo in the middle stint, which prompted Red Bull to aggressively pit Ricciardo early to try and undercut them, but it didn't work out as Hamilton had pace in hand. With a now compromised strategy, Ricciardo just held off Vettel for third. The battle for fifth between Verstappen and Raikkonen was the most interesting part of the race. Raikkonen was recovering from a poor qualifying. Verstappen lost out a lot in the first round of pit stops after coming out behind Raikkonen who started on the soft tyre. Raikkonen then did two stints on the supersoft to effectively make up the time of an extra pit stop to close onto the back of the teenager in the final stint. Verstappen defended hard, and at one point possibly unfairly: linky to video clip but the stewards didn't investigate and with Raikkonen's front wing damaged, Verstappen was able to hold him off to the end. Alonso was an excellent 7th for McLaren.Sainz, Bottas and Hulkenburg rounded out the points paying positions. The Strategy Group (the group that propose regulation changes, comprised of 6 teams, FOM and the FIA) have decided that the radio restrictions on what the teams can say to their drivers are to be dropped completely from the next race. The addition of the "halo" (intended to protect the driver's head) is to be put off until 2018. RE: F1 Prediction Game (Interforum League) 2016 - pob - 03-08-2016 Germany Results

Ricciardo and Verstappen were both on the podium for Red Bull, meaning Red Bull move into second in the championship. Rosberg had a poor race, spinning his wheels at the start dropped him from first to fourth. He was then given a 5 second penalty for this incident when overtaking Verstappen, which was exacerbated by his pit crew not timing the penalty properly in the pits. He then didn't have the pace to recover and could only manage fourth. The Ferraris of Vettel and Raikkonen were disappointing in fifth and sixth respectively. Hulkenburg, Button, Bottas and Perez rounded out the points paying positions. A couple of talking points in the drivers market... Alonso was cheeky on the radio with his engineer which will prompt more rumours that he is unhappy at McLaren. Despite Force India claiming Perez will continue to race for the team next year, he is more coy about his future and I think he may end up alongside Grosjean at Haas next year with them both having an eye on Raikkonen's Ferrari seat for 2018. Kvyat is feeling the pressure from his national media claiming he will be dropped completely from the Red Bull setup next season; he has struggled since his demotion to Toro Rosso and really needs to get his head straight during the summer break.

RE: F1 Prediction Game (Interforum League) 2016 - pob - 05-09-2016 Belgium Race recap: The story of the weekend was Hamilton taking a huge grid penalty and starting from the back for changing his power unit multiple times so he has enough new engines for the remainder of the season after suffering bad reliability at times this year. He came from the back row to a great third place. Rosberg took the win easily, although Red Bull should be happy that Ricciardo was fairly close behind in second on a track where they should struggle. Force India showed good pace with Hulkenburg in 4th and Perez 5th. Ferrari's race went pearshaped at the first corner with Vettel and Raikkonen colliding with Verstappen. The first corner incident was probably Vettel's fault combined with Verstappen being a little overly optimistic . Verstappen was once again criticised for his late defensive moves when battling with Raikkonen, but the stewards didn't intervene. Vettel finished 6th and Raikkonen 9th. Alonso had a great race coming from last on the grid to seventh for McLaren. Bottas was eighth and Massa tenth for Williams. Magnussen had a huge shunt in his Renault, and emerged shaken but was passed fit for the next race. This is the end of the crash: Italy Results

Mercedes were much faster than anyone else, and the battle for the win was over at the first corner with Hamilton again struggling with his clutch giving him a poor get away gifting the victory to Rosberg. Hamilton just had to be patient to pass the two-stopping Ferraris to take second place. Vettel was third and Raikkonen fourth. Ricciardo had a good race to fifth for RedBull, including what Martin Brundle called the overtake of the season when passing Bottas, who was sixth. Verstappen had a quiet race to seventh, possibly due to having had a talking to for his aggressiveness. Perez, Massa and Hulkenburg rounded out the points paying positions. Some news in the driver market: Button will not race next year, but will have a 2 year contract as reserve for McLaren. He may come back after a year out if Alonso then retires. Massa announced his retirement. He may be replaced by Canadian teenager Lance Stroll. Perez has ended rumours of a move away from Force India, he will stay at the team.

(and I have to be careful what I say as I know one of the stewards and want to stay on good terms with her) So, Hamilton and Rosberg get another 1-2 for Mercedes, but in the closing laps things get really spicy in the battle for third. A one-stopping Verstappen is being chased by Vettel who also one-stopped but is on newer tyres after a much longer first stint, and both are being caught by a two-stopping Ricciardo. Vettel gets into the slipstream of Verstappen on the main straight and Verstappen outbrakes himself going into turn 1 and cuts the corner in a similar way to what Hamilton did on the opening lap. Vettel is furious and wants Verstappen to cede the position. The Red Bull team even ask Verstappen to give up the position but he refuses to yield. Ricciardo then makes this attempt to pass Vettel: Ricciardo accuses Vettel of moving in the braking zone, which the stewards are meant to be cracking down on after Verstappen's bad press for doing late jinks to defend in recent races. So, Verstappen crosses the line third on track and heads to the podium with Vettel still furious, even telling race director Charlie Whiting to f*** off: but then news breaks of a 5 second penalty for Verstappen and he is removed form the prepodium room: Vettel runs to the podium and accepts the trophy. But, 3 hours after the race the stewards decide to give Vettel a 10 second penalty for moving in the braking zone, which promotes Ricciardo to third, Verstappen to fourth, and leaves Vettel in fifth. Ricciardo then has his own little ceremony on the podium (even though nearly everyone has gone home): |
