2018 Spanish Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
2018 Spanish Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
Welcome, welcome, welcome! We present to you Round Five of the 2018 Predicament Predictions Championship, this weekend from Spain!
It's a close-run thing this year, so let's see if we can't shake up the championship order a little bit. 2018 has been a pretty damn hectic season so far this year, so let's hope for some more shenanigans and more rejectdom from the front, just to throw even more unreliability into the mix! Good luck everyone. Here's your blank slate:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
Pole Position:
Fastest lap:
First retirement:
Reject of the Race:
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race:
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race:
Minor League Premiership:
Did not Start:
Don't forget there's a point for the funniest alternative race title. The candidates for Minor League Premiership remain Leclerc; Sirotkin; Gasly; Hartley. And anyone who hasn't already used it can use their double points once this season. Just say if you want to activate it
Here are my predictions (c'mon, more randomness please!)
1. Max Verstappen
2. Fernando Alonso
3. Lewis Hamilton
4. Sebastian Vettel
5. Valtteri Bottas
6. Carlos Sainz Jr.
7. Kimi Raikkonen
8. Sergey Sirotkin
9. Nico Hulkenberg
10. Stoffel Vandoorne
Pole Position: Lewis Hamilton
Fastest lap: Max Verstappen
First retirement: Daniel Ricciardo
Reject of the Race: The stewards (for doing something controversial)
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race: Fernando Alonso
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race: Daniel Ricciardo
Minor League Premiership: Sergey Sirotkin
Did not Start: Lance Stroll

Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race: I really can't even attempt a guess at this. I could default to Alonso, but instead I've opted to use a Random Number Generator for this round.

Re: 2018 Spanish Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
Damn it, I've forgotten about a race for the purposes of Predicament Predictions every year since I won. As of the time I write this, qualifying hasn't started yet, so I'm wondering whether I'll be disqualified for writing up predictions after the end of Third Practice or if I could slip in with a points penalty.

Re: 2018 Spanish Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
In what was mostly a predictable race at Barcelona - with perhaps the exception of Kimi Räikkönen's retirement, we have our fifth winner in five races, and at his home grand prix to boot: AdrianBelmonte_! Using double points to his advantage, he is the first of the participants to really benefit from using it, and as a result we have a mixed-up set of results and standings throughout. Not all the front-runners scored highly, with especially Aguvazk and Gertrand Bachot scoring low. dr-baker was consistent yet again, finishing second on a meritorious 18 points, whilst the championship leader RAK finished third to keep his overall lead in the championship. Here are the results:
Results
1. AdrianBelmonte_ 22*
2. dr-baker 18
3. mario 17
- RAK 17
5. tommykl 16
6. Simtek 15
- Klon 15
8. This Could Be You 13
9. Ugncreativeusergname 10
- Wizzie 10
- takagi_for_the_win 10
- CarloSpace 10
13. Rob Dylan 9
- Enforcer 9
15. Bleu 7
- peteroli34 7
- Gertrand Bachot 7
- yannicksamlad 7
- Aguvazk 7
*funniest alternative race title; used double points.
And as a result of that rather high-scoring round, the championship looks like so:
Standings
1. RAK 69
2. dr-baker 61
3. Klon 60
4. mario 59
5. Aguvazk 58
