Short version for this fantasy league:

Pick two drivers, a chassis, an engine, and a tire brand.

You score points based on how well your picks perform in qualifying and in the race. The points you earn get you money you can use to upgrade to better drivers/equipment (goodbye, Mr. Massa; hello Mr. M. Schumacher ), but you get a rather large monetary penalty for any changes you make to the team.

Goal is to score the most championship points across the season, and hopefully do it while changing as little as possible.

If you click the flag for the race when you have 'my team' open it will show you how each selection scored in qualifying and the race.

That seems fair to me, but you can do whatever you want. Block or not..your call.

1. Nobody who is behind someone can catch him up by copying his choices.

2. Only the most conceited would think the guys already in front of him would want to copy him.

Sadly, Gilles27 was able to execute my strategy (get Michael Schumacher ASAP) sooner than I was, due to having scored more points on the season.

It's going to be a tall order for anyone to catch him at this point.

Gilles only lost the points lead to SuperSport after Nurburgring. Now with MS in his line-up, Gilles is almost sure to go on a late-season blitz.

Even though SuperSport has a sizable lead, looking at their rosters, I think G27 has the stronger team. SS has pretty much put all of his eggs in one basket, going for the full BAR roster (Sato/Button/BAR chassis/Honda engines/Michelin tires). Now the Michelins are a solid choice for anyone, but if BAR has a bad race (like a double-DNF), it will almost definitely put G27 right back in the thick of the battle for the points lead. And chances are MS's car will not fail, unless he chooses another bad time at which to apply his brakes.

Between those two, my money's on G27.

I updated the standings way up top.

Does anyone even watch F1 these days? I don't remember the last time I watched an F1 race live. I remember watching the re-air of Monaco this year, but that's been it for some years.

I've only seen one race live this season..that was Canada.
