No entry from me this week. However, if it were Laguna Seca, I would pick 'em.
I guess it'll be a good race anyway. |

UPDATE ON ENTRY LIST:
Simona had tavel complications getting from Switzerland to Sonoma, so HVM is putting Simon Pagenaud in the car. I know that NBU and Chiana had her as the "Mover" so both will have to change their picks. Just post them here and I'll change them in your templates. I'll PM them as well. |

I'm not sure what's going on, but my streak of bad quali predictions doesn't seem to end. Being able to pick last is an advantage, you can go either for the fastest time of everyone or the slowest, and of course I made the wrong choise. They went way too slow!

I have a question. Meira was classified last, but Carpenter had a slower time. I'm not sure what has applied before, the position or the time. Because technicly Carpenter was the slowest car on track, but he didn't start last.

I was pleased with both aspects of my result. 15 for quals and 18 for the race are pretty good point totals.
Keep in mind, I didn't participate in the St. Pete, Brber or Indy 500 Race contests and still have racked up over 250 pts in just 12 contests. I've been pleased with my results thus far. I hope I can keep it up...that's the tough part. |
