F1 Fantasy Competition

EERO · 5 Mar 2000, 16:02 (Ref:13762)

I've posted a pair of links to two free web fantasy games I'm playing this season under the team name "Valhalla Team EERO". I thought it might be fun if we were to compete against one another in this team management game. Anybody interested?
See you in Melbourne, my friends.

Game #1: I played this one last season and did pretty well. www.fantasyf1.co.uk/index.html

Game #2: (Ya gotta love a website whose soundtrack is Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries.)

EERO, in order to get you some competition I've entered game#1, Fantasy F1.
My team name is Tulip Racing.
Have to go now, gotta catch my plain to Australia. The team's already there and we still have a launch to do.

Toth · 5 Mar 2000, 20:33 (Ref:13764)

I´m in on game#1 too.
I just entered "The nifty nostrils team". Acombination of personal favourites, the best driver and some cheap stuff to fill it up.
Let the games begin...

AL Racing · 5 Mar 2000, 23:25 (Ref:13765)

Thanks EERO, I've been looking for some cool Fantasy leagues. I entered and won F1 Rumors Fantasy F1 Kudos league last year with "AL Racing" and I've been searching for a similar game. It looks like Darrian Web uses the same rules. Anyway I'm signing up for that one (as AL Racing of course), and I'm hoping that F1 Rumors get thier league going also, but it doesn't look like it.

Nifty nostrils?????

Toth, who are your sponsors, Kleenex and Afrin Nasal Spray?

Liz · 6 Mar 2000, 04:44 (Ref:13767)

OK - we are Rydell's Rangers (Rickard is a relative) and we are Ready to Rumble!

FRENZY FOR WDC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If only I'd had $1 million more ...

DJ · 6 Mar 2000, 11:21 (Ref:13768)

Not sure that Fantasy F1 is up at F1 rumours, but you can always check

DJ · 6 Mar 2000, 11:23 (Ref:13769)

Sorry!!! The one through F1 Rumours (f1rumours.net) is a good one, I've been told it will run, but wasn't up a few days ago.

Toth · 6 Mar 2000, 21:57 (Ref:13770)

Indeed those are my sponsors. I had to change my team-name to attract more sponsors. "Plastic Curtain Racing" appeared to remind people of falling curtains.

David McManus · 6 Mar 2000, 22:01 (Ref:13771)

Have entered both, plus special reserve's at http://f1fantasy.com with team name
Leeds United Champions 2000

Schume · 6 Mar 2000, 22:05 (Ref:13772)

I'm in on game #1 as Frenbari....go figure?????

Watch out for the "Red & Yellow Frenzy"

Liz · 7 Mar 2000, 00:33 (Ref:13773)

I have bankrolled my first pilote myself so the car will have only my name on it - I figure the bets I have out on him will more than pay to run the team this year.

My second pilote is sponsored by the Mario Andretti "Take No Prisoners" Driving School. And Dr. Dennis the Dentist.

Neil C · 8 Mar 2000, 15:23 (Ref:13774)

Snafu Racing Team...(my old FF team has now gone big time!) Can anyone spare a million pounds or five?

KC · 8 Mar 2000, 16:29 (Ref:13775)

Well KC Team Go Fast is up on the Fantasy F1 site. Watch out for waving Saltires!

I am also the same team name at the Speed King site.

Oops.

Liz · 10 Mar 2000, 00:56 (Ref:13779)

Isn't that a 10 second penalty for double-post? Or perhaps it just means you're a lap up on us!

Gerard · 10 Mar 2000, 01:37 (Ref:13780)

You wont get much money from the Jos Verstappen Gravel Supplies Center, Minardi fan.

He's on 8th after the first free practice session.
Jos "still" The Boss.

EERO · 10 Mar 2000, 02:30 (Ref:13781)

MinardiFan, your entry has been received.

PS Is "Kinder Surprise" a meal? I have a great recipe for Toddler Fritatas.

Neil C · 11 Mar 2000, 00:24 (Ref:13783)

Due to lack of proper sponsorship and financing, Snafu racing is only competing in Race 1

Liz · 11 Mar 2000, 13:43 (Ref:13784)

See you on the podium. Bring hankies, the rest of you!

Liz · 12 Mar 2000, 00:42 (Ref:13785)

So now how do we get our results? Nothing on the site seems to mention that.

Gerard · 12 Mar 2000, 20:09 (Ref:13786)

Yes, I would like to know were to look at the results too.
I didn't too well however, since both Jordan's didn't finish and therefore 10 points are subtracted.
