    Did you try clicking on the bonus race to see if you could change it?

    Kept my main players, but swapped an unknown rookie for DiResta, and swapped one of my constructors... We'll see.

    I still think it's too early in the season to be able to get a real idea of what's going on, but in my initial picks, I randomly selected one of my teams and my rookie. Now I have a slightly better idea who they are, so I made the swaps.

    Should be interesting!

    Less than 24 hours left to make transfers ahead of qualification. Of course given the weather in Malaysia it may not make much difference who you pick.

    Can someone explain to me why Button is worth 20 points after qualifying, but Hamilton and Webber who finished ahead of him are worth 15?

    NM, figured it out. He had the fastest lap in Q2 for 5 points.

    The results are up. After zeroing out the Aussie practice round here are our numbers:

    Empire State Motorsports -- 888 (890)
    Team DOING IT WORNG! -- 840 (830)
    Shack Attack -- 606 (608)
    JDYG-F1 -- 449 (461)
    Sugar Momma Racing -- 420 (415)
    Fast Gnats -- 401 (396)
    Redbeard Racing -- 379 (380)
    Thw Whining Team -- 370 (364)
    Team OG Jinky -- 367 (364)

    I think a few of these are bonus race numbers (doubled) but congrats and well done Dale (Empire) who is listed as 57th overall !!
    ------------
    edit: updated the numbers (original scores are in parens)

    I haven't done the math to figure out whether those numbers reflect Hamilton's demotion; He lost I think one position due to the penalty handed out post-race.

    I had a Alonso and Hamilton and Vettel. Was running 1, 3 & 4. Right up until Alonso ran into Hamilton. It all went to crap after that.

    Malaysia was my pick for bonus, so that's why "Team Doin' It WORNG!" scored so well...

    Disappointed in my boy Alonso today... He was clearly feeling the pressure when he drove his wing into Ham's tire!

    China is next week!

    Reports say Alonso's DRS (movable wing) wasn't working today. He said his only passing options were therefore in corners other than the pit straight braking zone, implying that was the motive for his semi-aggressive move on Hamilton. By the way, not sure everyone noticed both Ham and Alonso were penalized, Alonzo for the incident and Ham for multiple blocking moves.

    Hamilton, Alonso accept penalties (autosport.com)

    After quali I traded away Rosberg to get Heidfeld so I had Vettel, Hamilton and Heidfeld and that was going great too up until the same point. Of course that incident only messed with one of my picks...

    They updated the scores so I edited my post (#107). Biggest gain, 10 points (Dave). Biggest loss, 12 points (that would be me).

    I know part of the change is because the early numbers didn't account for Hamilton's demotion to 8th (that's -2 points) and Kobayashi's promotion to 7th (+2) but there's another change in there as well and I don't know what it is. For example, I lost a total of 12, 2 when Ham dropped to 8th but I can't work out where the other 10 points went. Oh well...

    Next up, China. Like Dave said, it's this coming weekend. The transfer window is rather narrow this time and it's open now.

    For some reason I though Hammi finished ahead of Alonso. So the drop wasn't making sense. I guess I was wrong.

    He finished behind Alonso but ahead of Kobayashi, then both Ham and Al were penalized 20 seconds post-race and Ham dropped a spot.
