Pickem! 2015 Australian Grand Prix

SO it will be a race for bottom spot for us two then

Whoa.... just hold on here. I greatly suck at picking the finishing order race to race, and I demand inclusion in this statement!


I managed a third place finish in FGP one year, but still sucked at Pickems that year too. I often get busy and forget to do Pickems for a race or two, but even if I didn't, I could compete for the loss!



Maybe we should see how many would get in on a sig line promise before the season start. We could play off of Tazio's current sig and make it "Reigning Pickems Biggest Loser" or something.

Good idea but it wouldn't work due to the "playa rate of attrition" factor. It's freakin' on dukie if you would want to take it to a personal level.....bro

Problem with that is - If we all try and win the biggest loser comp, we will end up picking the correct result every race

That might be my best tactic. I rolled the dice and picked Alonso in the top 8 for the first race!

On the flip side I can now see how loads of people will pick K Mag as the reserve driver for their FGP teams, and I haven't picked my team yet. Does anyone want to guess who my reserve will be?

Mark........will there be (relatively) current standings, and maybe even a winner declared for this seasons exercise?
Thanks in advance

I hope so! It all went a bit Pete Tong last year.

Note: under the standard rules if a driver is a direct stand in then picks will still count so picks for Alonso will count for Magnussen.

Good to know. But no disrespect to Kev, if you picked Fred to finish 4th, there is very little chance that Kev will match that

If you picked Fred to finish 4th, maybe you need your head examined as well

Just checking.... hold on.... I din't include a McLaren in the top 10, so a 1-2 finish is on the cards then.
