Something strange: when i visit that page, it says i am looged in as “IDR”, but that’s not me and i don’t know who that is !
That message is just here to test if i really appear as someone else than “Gwenouille”, who i am.

Very strange… It appears as Gwenouille, but the page says i am “IDR”, with a red, custom avatar.
Nevermind that.
I find a bit sad that the quality of the car has such a big impact on the result. I mean you always find the same pattern: RBR then ML then Fer. Then the 2 Merc, then the 2 FI, etc…
We see Renalut definitively becoming a middle-team, and Williams slip to a “new team” level, but appart from that, not much of a mix.
I’d love to see some more randomness, like a Sauber in the top 3, a Lotus in the top 10, a Ferrari out of the points and a Merc at the bottom once in a while.
I mean, it seems like, whoever the driver is, if he drives a Sauber, he is bound to finish between 10 and 15. With a RBR, that’s between 1 and 5, etc…
A little bit too predictible…
