[Official] Austrian Grand Prix - Predictions Contest 2021 - Round 9 of 23 - Results

[Born Racer]

Congratulations to chunterer on his first win of the season, in the Austrian Grand Prix.

He tied with Born Racer Fan on 102 points, but won on countback. As they both got Verstappen as the winner and no other top 10 drivers in their exact finishing spots, we had to go all the way down to qualifying predictions to work out the countback, with chunterer's accurate guess of Pérez in 3rd sealing him the win.

He becomes the eight different winner of the season in only nine Grands Prix.

It was a really close round and the title battle has tightened up, with TrapezeArtist dropping to 4th and steve_r drawing level with smellysocks for 5th. BTCC frog takes over the championship lead.
