I am continuing this new Fantasy Game here on the Motorsport Forums, which is very similar to what 16th & Georgetown ran in 2010.
The game is very simple. All you have to do before the race's qualifying session is choose ONE driver as your fantasy driver. After Sunday's race, you will get the same amount of points as that driver's finishing position. If the driver wins, you get 1 point, 2 points for 2nd, etc. At the end of the season, the player with the least points wins the competition.
The one very tactical and strategic part of this game, is that you cannot pick the same driver more than THREE times all season. So this game may come down to just a little bit of luck as well.
If you choose a driver before the race weekend and they are replaced (example, Charlie Kimball at Mid-Ohio last year), you would have gotten points for where Giorgio Pantano finished in the final results.
If you choose a driver before the race weekend, and they withdraw due to injury, or other reason where they are not replaced, (i.e. de Silvestro - Iowa/2011) you will get the average points of each session that the driver completes in one race weekend. So for example, you choose Ryan Hunter-Reay and he does 2 practice sessions and gets hurt in qualifying and the team withdraws his entry, his 2 practice session results will be averaged, and you will receive x points for that weekend.
If you accidentally choose a driver for the 4th time, I will write you a response informing you that you cannot choose that driver, and you will have the opportunity to pick again. In this thread, I will be keeping an active drivers list so you know exactly who will be competing each weekend.
If you do not submit an entry before the deadline (before qualifying session), you will automatically have the driver for the last GP chosen. If your 3-pick quota has been reached, then you will get max points for the event. If you join the competition late, the same penalty applies (26 points given at St. Pete, etc.)
When choosing your fantasy driver, you may either send me a private message with your pick, or more preferably, send me an email. I have created a special email address for this competition only that I will use exclusively, and which may be easier to communicate, say you accidentally pick a 4th driver and I need to email you back quickly.

Please write your forum name and your driver choice in your message.
I will be creating an excel spreadsheet with all of this compiled info, and will post 1 spreadsheet with your driver choices (so you can keep track visually) and a separate one with points standings after each race weekend.
You may start emailing/messaging at any time! Hope you all enjoy!
