It always works this way. FGP starts and some people join right away; others take their time; and some others wait until the last minute.Quote:

Something dastardly is afoot!
Edit: Could I trouble you to add "Team" in front of my team's name?
Thank you.
Those 4 are my family. They don't post here, but joined the forum specifically to play along with FGP, and occasionally pickems.
Dastardly? Well maybe - who in their right mind would pick Massa for 19 million? :p
Just so long as you remember... if your family member wins, YOU get no bragging rights... at all! :)Quote:

Team 137
Hulkenberg - 10
Pic - 4
Liuzzi - 1
McLaren - 18
Renault - 15
Bonus - Australia
Last year my 10 year old came in third while I finished in the bottom half of the pack. So I'm thinking less about bragging rights, and more about being humiliated by a 10 year old. He watches the races and knows the teams & names pretty well. He's just not always up with the latest news. He still asks me occasionally if I know when Kubica is coming back.Quote:

But since I am trying to take this very seriously, I went for Sutil/Bianchi (whoever doesn't get the Force India race drive) as I can picture one or the other maybe getting a chance somewhere.
As for Massa, I did actually consider him for my fgp, even at 19M! Relying on him having reached close to 2008 form. But I still have a little doubt - he might just return to 2010 form instead...
Really Pino :dozey:Quote:

Spot On.

Engine: Mercedes
Driver 1: Grosjean

Woot woot... here we go!!!
TO FIRTSGEAR:
You're going down again...where are the Ferrari's Mr. Ferrari man; so much for team support eh...looks like band wagon jumping to me.
We should wager supper this year. Even if I lose, I'm still staying behind my team!
Mr. Ferrari man? Not me, I just jumped to the dark side last year because I thought they were a good deal. I don't mind playing the field. :p
Oh, and I'm pretty sure you'll be buying this year.
:laugh:
I will never expect anyone to make a wager over a meal with me. You can all just send cash when you lose! :laugh:
Mr Jones I tried to send you a PM but your maibbox is full.
On this site https://sites.google.com/site/2009fgp/teams
you have my team listed as Slash, Inc. That comma is nowhere dude, and bad luck at that. If it is not too much trouble would you mind putting it right: Slash Inc.
:s ailor: Thanks in advance ;)
Kind Dr.
Rather than find an early season "bad luck" excuse to bother N Jones with, accept that my team will humble you and display your lack of team building abilities!
Signed,
Airshifter
:laugh:
Looks like a good team pick, I just have to start trash talking early in the spirit of the fun with have with FGP. Speaking of which, maybe we should see if we can drum up some sig betting wagers? We could even do some to a certain point in the season or for a particular race to add to my enjoyment of making you all display a sig supporting my team! (end sincere point loaded with more trash talk)
Whatever you say air' I would just like my name listed the way I entered it :dozey: ;)
My team is gonna euthanise Slash Inc. in Australia, yo! :arrowed: Keeping it real, Nazi style. :bandit: Arbeit macht frei, baby! :s kull:
Too soon? :dog:
If you aren't ready for some smack talking yet, then you aren't ready to participate in FGP this year IMO. :laugh:Quote:

As its only my second season. I now realise my error. I have gone for a lead driver instead of good team and engine.
Next Season I will make amends and you will pay. :p :
Can I change my third driver since unexpectedly, Sutil and Bianchi both got race seats?
I'll go for Alguersuari please, as I'd like to see him get another chance.
Whatever. :pQuote:

Wowowowhoa hang on! I've just realised: My 3rd driver has been drafted in, so that means I get to score with him for every race!! ;) :pQuote:

WHO'S WITH ME?!!
I have delicious breakaway biscuits right here.
Not me. :D I only follow Spensonlizids to overthrow people. :love:Quote:
