Duuuuuuude, you make this but don't put YOUR (for WDC, nor Australia) pick there?!

As you can see from the poll, my pick is Kimi and top 3 in Australia is:

1. Kubica
2. Raikkonen
3. Barichello

In order to maintain the integrity and historical accuracy of people's predictions, I will CLOSE this thread before the start of Friday practice.

That way, everyone's predictions will be 'cast in stone' for the season and there will be ZERO wiggle room.

Why are you surprised? that's the way Twig & Berries rolls, Finn. Rolleyes:

I also pick Kimi. In Oz, I pick Massa, Kimi, and Vettel.

I'm going with Massa. His bare miss last year will fuel his determination this year. There are so many variables, who knows, but I'm rooting for him.

This is where you are flawed Lewis. Read Waynos post CAREFULLY. He mentions AFTER FRIDAY PRACTICE!!! He's basically stating that he will pick after he's seen the cars on track for both practices on Friday and before Qualifying.

As I've mentioned over and over again, if you leave Wayne unchecked, he runs amuck.

I for one am not going to pick Kimi this year. I'm not saying whom I will choose just yet, but it will not be the Kimister.

Wayne,

If everyone don't have to pick BEFORE any engines start in Australia, I will just withdraw my pick, or we might as well pick in June then.

And, if the picks will be put in BEFORE, I'm in for a friendly wager.

LOL

Wayne, you post a poll and don't even have the stones to select your own pick??

I guess your strategy is to wait to see who everyone else picks so you will know who to select?

Giddy up, Wayno the Cut 'n Paste cowboy made a poll so others can help him decide....

Unless you've embedded the ability to cut and paste and select youtube videos, your answer would be "NO". Wayne is all show, no go.

I think my pre-season warm up and testing is done now, I'm in mid-season form already.

I was hoping for a Sebastien pick so I can slip in 3 picks with 1 name.


Have to go check which point system flavor of the day F1 is running on today.
