Fantasy F1 League Standings
 

Here are the standings for the F1 League as of the first race of the season...

1. runnin' on empty - 20 pts
2. Pesky 914 - 16 pts
3. jmorris3 - 12 pts
4. penguinking - 12 pts
5. wombat7 - 9 pts


I am thinking about possibly allowing for each person to make 1 change to their lineup. What do you guys think??

Chad
Where is my score?? I say leave the line up's the same

sorry i just did top 5...

6. Honkity Hank and Eric in Chicago - 8 pts
7. DeAd-Eye and dgz924s - 4 pts

Agreed.

Agreed on no changes, but should there not be a way to make trades at some point in the season?

What do you mean by trades?? This is the first time I've ever ran this league so any suggestions you have to make it better would be great.

I am thinking that there might be a way to trade parts of your team with either other players or back into the overall pool. Typically this means that the relative value of each a driver for example may change as the year progresses. For example if a Renault chassis was worth 8mm at the beginning of the year it may be worth 9mm now. So if you wanted to trade a BAR chassis tha is worth say 3mm for Renault you will have to come up with the difference of 6mm. It all can get rather complicated and requires someone to keep track of the values and approve the trades. You could also have the commisioner approve all trades so it I wanted to trade one of my 1mm drivers for Reubens you could veto the trade.

Typically the number of trades is limited so it does not get out of hand. This way if you loose a driver to injury or he gets fired for some reason you can find a way to replace him.

I kinda like that idea... what does everyone else think??

I want more money!;)

I'm 3rd.....I'm not changing anything!!!! :jumper:

Bump.....New standings?

I can wait to see them for another couple of weeks :banghead: I hitched my wagon to Ferrari, i hope the 2005 car is as good as they are claiming.

Here are the new standings....

1. runnin' on empty - 38
2. DeAd-EyE - 30

7. Pesky 914 - 20
8. dgz924s - 13

Sorry it took me so long... i've been swamped with homework. 13 Circuit design problems kicked my a$$.. looks like those of you who put all your faith in Ferrari might wanna start getting scared ;) lol... we'll see what happens when the F2005 gets on the track. Hopefully someone starts catching Renault or runnin' on empty is gonna start runnin' away with the league...

Not only Ferrari for me but Honda as well. I am not doing any better in the NCAA tourney either. As an aside, the race was pretty interesting with a few bits of real racing, unfortunately it did not involve any Red cars.

Still 3rd....woo hoo!!!

damn..i totally forgot about this. YAY! RENAULT! YAY TOYOTA!

Hey guys... just thought I would let you know. There will not be an update for a while after this race. I'm going to Italy for 10 days and leave tomorrow so I will not have access to my spreadsheet.

Sorry!! I hope you all can wait ;)

Hello Wombat7:

Now that BAR has been excluded from the San Marino race results and the upcoming races in Spain & Monaco,
we need to see a revised points standings; if you please. :icon107:

The news keeps getting worse for me. FIrst Ferrari can't get their 05 car working, Bridgstones would nto last a race, and now my engine mfr, Honda, is excluded and suspended.

I am toast.

I will get that up ASAP

1. runnin' on empty - 75
2. wombat7 - 73
3. DeAd-EyE - 67
4. jmorris3 - 67
5. penguinking - 65
6. Eric in Chicago - 53
8. 38D - 39
7. dgz924s - 37
9. Honkity Hank - 19

These are updated from the revised San Marino results from formula1.com. As you can see, everything changed drastcially

I have a question for you guys... since this is my first year running the league I am open to suggestions on how it should be run. As stated at the beginning of the league, you get bonus points if you get the pole or fastest lap. To date, I've only been giving those as driver points and not as manufacturer points. If the consensus is to give driver, engine, and chasis points for the pole and fast lap I will change and update the standings...

1. wombat7 - 109
2. penguinking - 92
3. runnin' on empty - 90
4. jmorris3 - 90
5. DeAd-EyE - 87
6. Eric in Chicago - 68
8. dgz924s - 54
7. 38D - 39
9. Honkity Hank - 19

19 back...losing ground....but still in 4th!

Spain was VERY good for me and help give me some distance from 2nd after falling to 2nd place after all the controversy in Imola.

and actually my score is 111... i forgot to add the bonus points for the pole...

1. wombat7 - 146
2. penguinking - 126
3. jmorris3 - 125
4. runnin' on empty - 117
5. DeAd-EyE - 104
6. Eric in Chicago - 96
8. dgz924s - 71
7. 38D - 51
9. Honkity Hank - 22

lol..damn you wombat! the fix is in!

Lost a bit to the leader, but I'm right behind 2nd...watch out PK!

hahah I will send you the spreadsheet if you want to keep me honest ;) but seriously, that's the way it worked out... Kimi is tearing **** up for me, as is the McLaren chasis and Toyota engine... Now only if I could get Webber to race and not screw things up all the time. I checked back at the site that runs the official league and I'm top 10 in that.... who would've thought...

Hopefully Kimi can keep his dominance in Germany....

I'm only a 124 back, plenty of races left to recover. i feel like the black knight in Monty Python's Holy Grail, never give in even if it is totally hopeless.

Clearly I just didn't want to quash everyone too early and ruin all the fun.

"Is that a full sized Ditka or a mini-Ditka"

Can you believe it? The FIA is interested in what we spectators of F1 actually think of the sport and even have a survey on their website to gauge our thoughts. Here is the link:

Apologies for the post hijack, but I thought that if anybody on Rennlist would be interested in this it would be you all. May as well log in and give them our 2 euros worth of advice.

Man that was a great race

all I can say is wow... I'm glad I stayed to watch the end. I was late to church because I was watching the end.

1. wombat7 - 149
2. runnin' on empty - 146
3. jmorris3 - 135
4. penguinking - 130
5. DeAd-EyE - 114
6. Eric in Chicago - 106
8. dgz924s - 73
7. 38D - 71
9. Honkity Hank - 52

::sob:: why...WHY!!!!????? on the last lap!!! grrr....i probly would've been first had it not been for.....

It would've been close... I have Kimi as a driver and McLaren as my chasis so I would've gotten many more points...

1. wombat7 - 176
2. jmorris3 - 156
3. runnin' on empty - 154
4. penguinking - 154
5. Eric in Chicago - 134
6. DeAd-EyE - 128
8. 38D - 99
7. dgz924s - 71
9. Honkity Hank - 52

1. wombat7 - 198
2. jmorris3 - 156
3. runnin' on empty - 154
4. penguinking - 154
5. DeAd-EyE - 139
6. 38D - 135
7. Eric in Chicago - 134
7. dgz924s - 86
9. Honkity Hank - 82

Now if I can arrange to have only the Bridgestone team compete the rest of the year, I just may win!

sheesh! wombat how'd you get so many points after the USGP if kimi/mclaren are your picks? lol

I have toyota engines and the jordans both run toyota engines... as well as the USGP was my bonus GP meaning I get double points

That race was a total embarassment for FIA, those that went to the race should be refunded their money and reimbursed for travel to set it right. FOr a series that is supposed to be the pinnacle of motorsports it is especially disapointing.

A slap in face of any race fan to call that a race, it was a 70 lap parade not a race. For F1 to come to a track unprepared to put on a real race and trot out that is disgraceful.
