True, I am usually Barrichello at this. Or Bottas.

Most points earned with double points (max 82): 40 at the 2018 Brazilian Grand Prix (mario)
Most points earned without double points (max 41): 27 at the 2019 French Grand Prix (mario again lol)

Aislabie and Mario have beaten those respective records, after a predictable result in an unfortunately predictable series has given us sooooooo many high points-scorers. Just about the only thing that was universally mistaken was Tsunoda as MLP. However, even though you all thought he would be MLP, you also somehow KNEW he would be DBTMOTR too :x damn you all I mean good job! Aislabie and I were the first protagonists to use double points this season, and yet mario still managed to equal me :facepalm:

I don't know whether what I am about to say might make things feel better or worse for you, but I'll admit that I actually thought that I wasn't going to do all that well this time around.

In fact, come to think of it, when I got the double points record for the 2018 Brazilian GP, I commented at the time that I thought that I'd used it at the wrong time...

So your strategy Mario is to "do whatever feels like a bad idea" and you'll get 25 points each weekend :D

Just under the points tally I explain that I gave you IIDOTR for guessing pit-stop problems, and that's basically what won the IIDOTR with the Alfa Romeo mechanic. Out of sympathy I gave you the three points :D
