2014 F1 Predictions Contest
Hello Pundits!
Welcome to the 2014 Predictions Compy! As in past years it's at ... http://tentenths.com/predictions/ As always, if you haven't entered before, please register using your Ten-Tenths Username. This year, there are some big improvements. As always, the deadline for entries is the start of Qualifying Session 1 on the Saturday before the GP. However, if you have an entry in before that time, you will be able to change your race predictions between quali and the race start. I've revised the points system a bit to make getting multiple correct predictions more significant. The big new feature is the "Double up Joker". Basically for one round during the season, you can double up your points. Just tick the box at the bottom of the form, and whatever point you score will be be doubled for that round. I wouldn't play your Joker in Australia The Double Up is mainly there to add a bit of extra pep to the race for the highest individual round score. Therefore, doubled up scores WILL count for the prize for highest individual round score. Good luck everybody, don't forget to get a banker prediction in before Saturday! |

New to this and have a query on predicting rain/a wet race. What defines a wet race? Is it when at least one competitor switches to intermediates or full wets? As we know it could rain slightly, but doesn't get classified as a wet race, and has no effect on the racing.
I think it would be best if maybe it was rain tyres being fitted to at least one car that defines the race being classified as racing in the rain. Thoughts? |

If it rains sufficiently to cause one driver to opt for inters, that strictly means it's a rain affected race. These days, you'd have to hold the race in Somerset to get the full wets on, so inters seem the best yardstick.

Sorry I was meant to say either intermediates or full wets.
Sweet, thanks for the explanation. |

Right everybody. Don't forget, if you've got an entry in, your quali prediction is locked but you can still tweak your race prediction.

Great start to the season. I'm not going to post too much about it until the Red Bull appeal is heard. For the time being, the official result is Ricciardo is DQ'D, so that is ours. If the appeal reinstates him, then I'll change it and recalculate.

Er...
Just went to put my Malaysia predictions in, and it won't let me. Bahrain is the top of the list. Can you please put Malaysia back again? I don't believe qualifying has started yet Ta! Graeme |

Sorted. Sorry about that, IIRC, I input all the data quite late one night. Must have misread the calendar.

Just a thought that crossed my mind. I'm not doubling up the points for the last race of the season by the way. The Double up joker is at your discretion

I got 0 points?
I've had some predictions from few days ago, and I've changded them this morning at, what I thought was last moment - I thought it would've been impossible to change after deadline. Now I see in the email that it was 09:00:09, so OK, I guess it was late, but - shouldn't I at least get points for getting the pole right? It doesn't really matter - I just have too much time lately... |

Predictions for this year are quite challenging again. Good luck everyone ! |
