I don't know which is worse; picking India, or not realizing it is off the schedule until the halfway point of the season
May the forza be with you

I could be worse. I picked my team just based on gut feelings before the testing.
N. Jones could give me bonus GP's until the end of the season and I'd still be mid pack at very best.
I'm sure when the forum FIA convenes they will have to weigh the amount of smack talking vs the sincerity and frequency of your begging for forgiveness. It might be a close call. And to mix things up, we will throw in some race stewards. That gives the added possibility that they will rule to review the incident after the season is over.

Hey, my team has sucked the last four years, so you have nothing to complain about, Taz!

FORD FOCUS F1 TEAM STATEMENT
Round 10: German GP
It was another decent enough result for us this weekend, with a 12th place finish. Bottas continues to be the great find we knew he'd be for Ł6M, with another fine podium. While just points for K-Mag bode well.
Surprisingly, Mercedes chassis came 1st, but most people are running these.
Our McLaren engines continue to be tosh, though at least they are now getting points. Even that was beyond them earlier in the year. We so regret not choosing Williams as we were tempted to - who were also much cheaper!
On our rivals
We are now equal 15th overall, and equal with Aki's Hedgehog Racing Team after 10 races! Once again, we look to be in a very closely matched fight this season, which could again go any way, and is unlikely to be decided until the season ender. Steve didn't have such a good race this time, as like last season, he is still waiting for points from his 2nd driver.
Meanwhile, Jens continues to benefit from our hard work as he fights for top positionswhile N.Jones is battling near the back with Steve's dad. Mia remains locked at the back while waiting for Kimi to get his season started, thus saving the series promoter some embarrassment.
On our season
We are now pulling out a slight gap over those behind, over 50pts ahead of 17th, while we are 75pts clear of the nearest non-bonus GP user. To put that in perspective, we are only 73pts behind our team-mate Jens in 4th place overall. We are hoping for at least a top 16 finish this season, but feel AHRT will have the momentum in the end, as we are having to rely on constant podiums from Bottas at the mo.
Results this season:
AUS: 5th
MAL: 10th
BAH:24th
CHI: 22nd
SPA: 19th
MON:4th
CAN: 20th
AUT: 6th
BRI: 11th
GER: 12th
Overall: 16th (on countback, as our best finish is 4th to AHRT's 2nd)
!!!STOP PRESS!!!
We are protesting Taz changing his bonus race, for the sole reason of kicking up a huge fuss and bother. We refuse to give unanimous agreement and intend to make a lot of noise in the meantime. (Just kidding btw)
