***Rain during race: No - 10 points

Just giving a bit of feedback Muck Warrior but I reckon for next year that the any other driver option should be increased to about 60 or 70.

For the likes of this race where the rain could throw up a strange result I was thinking of the any other driver but at 30 points it really isn't worth the risk. If the points for this option was closer to 70 it would add more of an incentive to go for it.

I appreciate that you personally have put in an amount of work into this competition and for that I applaud you. I know this is just a bit of craic but with a bit of luck I could possibly win and it's something I would really like to be able to say around the forum!

I think everything else is perfect this is the only change I'd like to see.

Couldn't disagree more. If you were to compare the odds here to a bookies there's a lot of value in any other driver even if it's only worth half the points of one of the specific drivers already listed.

Don't think so. Vettel is 11/8 at the moment making him favourite for the race and favourite for the competition here.Don't think there is anyway you could put the rest of the drivers other than the 4 picked would be next or near 11/8 to win the race. A fair price would be anything from 10 to 16/1 in my opinion.

Looking at the competition this year I can't remeber the any other driver option winning except for maybe one of Button's wins. I could be up for correction on this point though.

I just think an any other driver for 70 points would give a greater incentive to choose an option that rarely wins.

On reflection, 30 points is probably is a bit low, but no way should it be 60 or 70. Arguably Button has the same chance as Hamilton, so why should the odds of him + every other driver on the grid be better than Hamilton's? If I was to do it again I guess 40 points would be a better option.

Thanks for the feedback though. I kinda just inherited the responsibility after the previous years' organisers seem to have disappeared from boards. I've also tried to encourage other people to do it at various stages, so if anyone has any ideas to make it better, just shout!

As alway, please check.

Webber Bobby04 is still holding on at the top, but just one race could still turn things around. However, time is running out for the chasing pack!
