Congrats to pericu (TT), our inaugural round round winner! Mentions to Ignacio.R (LT), maximiliano puig (LT) and Roberto.R (LT), who notched two of three R1 podium finishers in the correct position. Alas, congratulations to all 38 concursants for the interest they showed in this new season!
For this season, the net score for Forums Championship has tightened to only best four forumers scorers counting for forum points in a round; then, not a surprise to see Los Tuercas over Ten-Tenths at the top of the forum ranks.
Observations:
R00 Championship:
- Rodrigouy (TN): Put only first three on Drivers Championship Final Standings, and ommited the predictions for Teams Championship Final Standings.
- Alex K (TT), BMWFAN (CB), Jorge Molinari (LA), Rodrigouy (TN) and SERGIOPINAR (TN) posted predictions for Championship Round only.
R01 Shanghai:
- osc@r (LT) and Posti (CB): Forgot FL R2.
- Ruth (LA): Sent predictions after deadline, so they weren't valid for this round.

I thank all concursants for their patience, and the interest in the Competition, as some users stated this week. Now the Montecarlo round is avaliable, about the next race that will be next May 22nd and 23rd. Make your bets, said the croupier!!!
