Fans Competition - Round 1 - Australia

[Mr V]

Well, here we are again guys and girls, the fans comp is back.

So, lets get the boring bit out of the way

rules

• 1. you only have the editing window to change your mind, no changing your minds after this time because you'll only be wasting your own time typing it
  
  
• 2. I know in previous seasons we have done questions in the event of a tie-break, but this year (in the event of a tie break) the winner will be done on "count-back", i.e- the person with the highest points for the final round wins, should the people tying have scored the same amount of points at the final round, it goes back to the previous race and so on.
  
  
• 3. Final entries to be submitted no later than 1 minute before first practice starts on the friday morning (thursday in the case of Monaco)
  

Here endeth the lesson

So, questions time...

1 Will Mark Webber out-qualify Nick Hiedfeld for the Race? (qualifying proper- not pre-qualifying)

2 Will this years pole time for the race be slower, and if so, by how much to the nearest (full) second (only 1 point for this answer)

3 Will a Bridgestone or Michelin shod car win the race?

4 Will Jacques Villeneuve finish ahead of his team mate in the race (according to the FIA classifications should neither finish)

5 How many points will the Renault cars score between them?

6 How many cars will remain unlapped by the leader come race end?

7 Which team will be classified 3rd in the WCC following the finish of the race?

8 1st retirement

9 2nd retirement

10 3rd retirement

Answering format should be just answers, not the questions copied and pasted follwed by your answers!

Guys and Girls, please read the questions carefully

I've elevated this to a hot topic... I'll be back to post my predictions soon....

Hmmm, well, only 1 driver can set pole for the race, so, is it going to be slower than Michaels pole time in 2004 of 1m 24.408 seconds? If anyone thinks it will be slower, how much slower?

btw, 90 seconds slower? my Granny could walk a lap faster than that

[Kicking-back]

But my point is that pole position will be an aggregate of two laps, so the pole time is going to be around 2:50s.

OK - thanks for the clarification.

I assume you mean the fastest time in the Saturday session, rather than the time set on Saturday by the driver who ends up on pole?




I'll say the time will be slower, but only by 0.5s, bearing in mind the session will run on low fuel.
