Australian Grand Prix predictions

Name the top three, win some prizes...

With the first two practice sessions out of the way it’s time for the traditional F1 Fanatic predictions game!

But this year it’s different – this year we’re playing for prizes…

The 2009 F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship (F1FPC) will run over 15 rounds starting with the Chinese Grand Prix. You’ve got two non-championship rounds to hone your predicting skills to a fine art.

Here’s how the game works:

1. Predictions have to be made between the end of FP2 and the beginning of FP3.
2. Only one set of predictions per person.
3. You have to predict (a) Who will be on pole position and (b) What the top three finishers will be.
4. Players score ten points for correctly guessing the pole sitter, ten points for correctly naming one of the top three in their correct position, 25 for naming two of the top three and 50 for naming the top three correctly.
5. Whoever scores the most points over the 15 races from round three (China) to 17 (Abu Dhabi) scoops the grand prize. There will also be runners-up prizes…

Details of the prizes will be announced later. In the meantime, let’s get on with making our predictions for this weekend. Remember – this one doesn’t count towards the Predictions Championship.

Here’s my prediction for the Australian Grand Prix:

Pole: Jenson Button

1. Jenson Button
2. Kimi Raikkonen
3. Nico Rosberg

I will be very impressed if someone gets it right in the first few rounds, so hard to believe the practise times are for real
