Formula 1 2011 COMPETITION: Round 2-Malaysia

muckwarrior

Rules as usual: Entries must be submitted before the start of qualifying, no excptions. Results at the end of the race stand.
Any drivers not within the 107% time will be deemed not to have qualified. A race will be declared wet if any driver switches to non dry tyres.

Also, just to clarify, if you missed the first round you can of course still enter this (or any other) round.

Found picking a winner really difficult there. Button was well on the pace this morning but you cant ignore Webber and Vettel.

Dont be at yourself

Increased pit stops and chance of rain makes this a real toughie.

To clarify: IF HRT finish outside 107% but are allowed in by the other teams what does that count as? (however unlikely it is to happen)

Hmm, good point.

I think 107% would be the clearest definition. If they don't make that then they'll be deemed not to have qualified.

What time does the poll close?

I will have the spreadsheet ready and attach it to a post when it ends

Unfortunately you can't set a time for the poll to close, but all entries must be in before the start of qualifying. As soon as quali it starts, you can make the spreadsheet.

I never did the competitions before, always missed out on the deadlines so should have an added excitment for this weekend's race!

Picked Webber for the win mainly becuase he will be supremly motivated to make up for his performance in Australia....and to make up for gifting the win in Malaysia to Vettel last season. Each of the leading drivers have positives for this race, and the ANY OTHER DRIVER entry was very appealing.

Button will be strong if it is changable conditions and with the tyre's looking much less durable in the race a driver outside the top ten, starting on the prime tyres, could be in with a great shot of winning. Someone, like Mercedes, might do what they can to qualify outside the top ten and start on fresh primes and have four sets of fresh tyres available for the four stints of a three stop race. With the DRS likely to offer overtaking opportunities a team with fresh rubber all the way through a race could potentially be really dangerous in the race!

I think that Liuzzi could make it onto the grid, he was pretty close to making it in Australia which was probably the most impressive performance in qualifying in Melbourne and I know that he has had more issues this weekend but I have faith in Tonio!

Picked Williams to beat Sauber because I was actually impressed by the pace of the Williams in Melbourne and cant see Rubens making another pigs ear of a race! The Williams was actually quite fast in the race but it was clearly overshadowed by the a shoddy Barrichello performance. The Sauber was obviously very impressive and Perez looks to be adapting really well and if its wet he could have another super race, not to mention Koyboyashi as well!

I picked a wet race, I take it that this means if rain falls at any stage in the race? Mainly did this because we've had no rain so this weekend and you'd obviously take the odds that there would be some rain in Sepang!

17 finishers or less, I dont think that Narain Karthikeyan(or however its spelt!) will qualify so with 23 drivers on the grid and the reliability woes of practice I think that theres a good chance of 6 retirements in the race, especially since I think it's going to rain!

Still a race to be run m8

Anything can happen in F1 and it usually does:D

Im happy with the way the sheet worked out,I have done a few trial runs with random results and it worked well.

Expect the results in about 2 weeks time:D






Only joking 5 mins after the race ends

Great work Sparks! Have to say, only 7 out of the 50 people vote for a dry race - All of us 43 people holding our breath wondering when, not if, the rain will fall! Thouroughly looking forward to the race - love these 9am race-offs!
