2021 Hungarian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!

Post by Rob Dylan »

Gif unrelated :lol:

Welcome to the 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix Predicament Predictions round! After this race we're at the halfway mark and we get a break for a few weeks, thank goodness, so let's see how the championship will end up before that happens.

You all know the rules, and if you don't, just PM me, post in this thread, or consult the Bahrain Grand Prix thread for how to submit. For every race you'll get a blank slate to make your predictions on, and this week it looks like this:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Pole:
Fastest lap:
First retirement:
Reject of the Race:
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race:
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race:
Minor League Premiership:
How Far Back:

There is always a point for the funniest race title you can come up with. The Minor League Premiership for this round contains Nikita Mazepin, Mick Schumacher, Yuki Tsunoda. You can also use double points at any time you like :)




This is what I'm expecting to happen. A nice feelgood comeback for Pérez going into the Summer break, and absolute disaster for Bottas. Oh and another embarrassing crash for Vettel I'm sure :D

1. Sergio Pérez
2. Lewis Hamilton
3. Max Verstappen
4. Lando Norris
5. Daniel Ricciardo
6. Valtteri Bottas
7. Fernando Alonso
8. Charles Leclerc
9. Lance Stroll
10. Pierre Gasly

Pole: Max Verstappen
Fastest lap: Sergio Pérez
First retirement: Mick Schumacher
Reject of the Race: Valtteri Bottas (Merc needed him to hold Verstappen back, and instead he just gave up and finished behind Ricciardo of all people)
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race: Daniel Ricciardo (for a fantastic drive overtaking a Merc into turn 1)
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race: Sebastian Vettel
Minor League Premiership: Nikita Mazepin
How Far Back: 1 lap


The deadline for submitting here is the end of FP3, so if you submit after that you'll incur a small penalty (depending on how late you are). Good luck everyone :dance:

So glad I didn't use my double points joker card at this round... and glad that when Mr Russell actually scored points in a Williams, I had him in my predictions.

And my race title seems rather... prescient now.

So as you all know, the Hungarian Grand Prix was a little unpredictable in nature. The result meant that the scores were unbelievably low, and so crazy that even I did well. Although no-one guessed Alpine for IIDOTR, I gave the Alonso suggestions half-marks for being basically correct. Otherwise there was nothing all too special other than to count the scores. So here they are!


Results
1. Londoner 14*
2. Rob Dylan 10

Poor Londoner. Accepting the poisoned chalice, they won the Hungarian Grand Prix through double points, but unfortunately those double points came at the race where half the frontrunners were out on Lap 1 Turn 1. 14 points are slim pickings, and it may have serious implications for their championship hopes. They will need a good run in the second half of the championship.

And speaking of the championship:

Standings
1. Aislabie 181.5
2. CaptainGetz12 175.5
3. UncreativeUsername37 174

4. Fetzie 174
5. dr-baker 171

21. Frogfoot9013 122.25
22. CarloSpace 110.5
23. yannicksamlad 91.5
24. Pacific Edge 83
25. IceG 78
26. You-Gee-Eee-Day 76.5
27. This Could Be You 60

29. WaffleCat 26
30. rachel1990 26

33. Pilot 16
34. Gertrand Bachot 11
35. dj_vicious 9
36. Pieman 8
37. Spooder918 7

Because the scoring was quite low all round, the results are that the standings are largely the same as they were when we went in. Aislabie holds their lead into the summer break. However, we still have more than half the season to go - another 12 races! - and all it takes is one slip for a front-runner to fall down the order.

See you when we come back :dance:
