Dougie takes the lead in the F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship
He's won four times now, no wonder everyone keeps picking him
The third round of the F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship saw Dougie take a narrow five-point lead in the standings.
Brouard21 and Pankit are close behind on 80 apiece. Lots of people predicted Button would continue his pole position and victory streak – but no-one named the top three correctly last weekend.
Here’s the standings so far.

Before this round two people pointed out that they had accidentally used two different names during the competition and wished to have their scores combined. If that has happened to you please let me know.

p.s. Well done Dougie

p.p.s There was a chap who was making comments on the live Spanish Grand Prix blog who is also named Dorian, but it wasn’t me….I think he’s from the States
Not that I minded because his comments were observant enough and fair…..I would’ved cared more if he sounded like a bellend ;-P

Keith, sorry for the mistake but I have used two different names in this competition. At Bahrain, I used the name “Paul” whereas in Spain I switched to “Paul A.” since there are so many entries. I did note that I was formerly just “Paul.”

Well, last week I was out of the country and, even though I watched the qualifying, I was having little internet access, so I completely forgot to make my predictions… can I still compete or am I out?

Wow!! Just returned from my holidays all post-hols blues, but this is a nice pick me up :-)
I knew I’d scored well but I didn’t expect to be out in front alone, although only by a small margin and it’s a long championship… Monaco this weekend, and I think we’re in for a surprise this race.
Cheers Dorian ;-)
