Haha! No way :D I didn't even bother to add up my score because I thought I hadn't done all that well :p Think this might actually be my first win!

@fIsince08 Mistake adding team points.. Lost under braking should have 300 I think?

Why does it say that Willyams have won in Malaysia when it was actually My Heart will Grosjean winning Malaysia by points?

Btw, high five to Seb.

What a way to jump back from that dismal first race. 8th to 3rd in the standings  :D

I'd just like to step in here and say kudos to both @VetteIfan and @GoldenColt for the team name 'My Heart Will Grosjean'. I just laughed rather loudly at my desk reading that. 

Carry on :smiley:

I don't know if anyone has suggested this before or if this is something anyone wants, but I had a thought on something we could add to the game to make it a bit more interesting. 
We all know how betting works, if you put money on a favourite and they win, you wont get a huge return compared to putting money on an outsider when they win.
So I thought maybe, based on current form we could add multipliers to each driver. How this would work is, for example, Lewis Hamilton would have a 0.6x multiplier, so if you got his position correct, instead of 15 points, you would get 9. But, someone like Sainz could have a 1.3x modifier, so if you get his position correct, you will get 19.5 (You could just have even numbers if you don't like the decimals, or round it up).

The modifier would be based purely on their ability to score points, so if you gamble on Alonso for 10th on Sunday and he does finish there, you could have a 1.8x modifier applied, because McLaren have been outside the points for the last 2 races. You could change the modifier every 3 races maybe?

I don't know, maybe it will just over complicate it too much, but it is just an idea. It would be pretty easy to implement at this point, because 3 races have not taken place, therefore no modifier would need to be applied until after China.
