2022 Brazilian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!

Post by Rob Dylan »

It's getting about that time that I need to start counting up scores again isn't it! Well, no matter, because as soon as one round is over, another begins. We are at the penultimate moment here, people. Get your double points on the go if you haven't already and let's make these last two rounds as exciting and competitive as possible. We have super happy sprints this coming weekend, so make sure to include those super happy predictions too! Blank slate below:

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

S1:
S2:
S3:

Fastest lap:
First retirement:
Reject of the Race:
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race:
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race:
Last Place:
How Far Back:


There is of course always a point for the funniest alternative race title, as well as a pre-penalty deadline which is the end of FP3 to get your guesses in.

My prediction will be that it is here, a year on from the silly nonsense fight Hamilton and Verstappen had, that the roles will be reversed and Verstappen will in fact win against a Lewis desperate for a win.

1. Max Verstappen
2. Lewis Hamilton
3. Charles Leclerc
4. Carlos Sainz Jr.
5. Sergio Perez
6. George Russell
7. Fernando Alonso
8. Guanyu Zhou
9. Lance Stroll
10. Lando Norris

S1: Max Verstappen
S2: Charles Leclerc
S3: Sergio Perez

Fastest lap: Max Verstappen
First retirement: Pierre Gasly
Reject of the Race: Pierre Gasly (qualifies last and then retires silently on like lap 2)
Infinite Improbability Drive of the Race: Nobody
Deadbeat Teammate of the Race: Valtteri Bottas
Last Place: Valtteri Bottas
How Far Back: 2 laps


Good luck everyone, season's almost over :dance:

The end of the season is so close now, and all of a sudden everyone is throwing out their double points option to get some extra points on the table. This round wasn't as predictable as Mexico - a Merc 1-2 was at least not predicted by anyone - but the usual suspects were all in the top ten and granted basically everyone a good handful of points to keep them going for the finale. We had a joint winner in Enforcer and Freeze-O-Kimi, which shoots them up the overall order. The latter participant joined after missing the first 7 rounds, and this writer imagines that they would have been a solid championship contender if they had managed another three!


Results (21 of 22 rounds)
1. Enforcer 30**
- Freeze-O-Kimi 30**

3. Bleu 28 **
4. Batty 22**
5. IceG 20**
6. Aerond 18
7. Hermann95 13
- RAK 13
9. Rob Dylan 10
- rachel1990 10
- dr-baker 10
12. Fetzie 9
13. Klon 8
- pi314159 8
- mario 8

*funniest alternative race title not awarded
**used double points




So what this all means is that the championship looks like it might indeed be wrapped up. Hermann95 has fewer scores to drop, and it will require a real turnaround of fortune in Abu Dhabi. But let's not urse any of the participants before the show is over. Let's see where we stand as the curtain falls.


1. Hermann95 288
2. mario 273
3. Aerond 265

4. dr-baker 262
5. RAK 260
6. Enforcer 253
7. Batty 251
8. IceG 239
9. tommykl 237
10. Fetzie 235
11. pi314159 233
12. rachel1990 229
13. Bleu 228
14. Klon 208
15. Rob Dylan 205
16. Freeze-O-Kimi 187
17. Londoner 173
18. CarloSpace 153
