F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship

Posted on

| Written by

Lewis Hamilton’s misfortune in qualifying last week meant it was another fairly low-scoring round of the Predictions Championship.

With over half of all players predicting Hamilton to take pole and win, this weekend’s highest score of 24 points was only managed by two people.

In first place was @Ad_mat, who came out on top in the pole position time tie-breaker, relegating Ohm to second place. @Mina won a four-way tie for third place:

  1. With the massive bug on the website from fp3 to qualy, I thought – with the mass people not being able to vote – this round wouldn’t count. But anyway, long life to the geeks.

    1. @jeff1s Plenty of people had already taken the opportunity to post their predictions during the time since the predictions form opened months ago. As usual many reminders were sent via multiple channels during the lead-up to the race, in which time many more people successfully submitted their predictions through the form. There was a problem with the server which prevented some people from being able to submit their predictions for a brief period on Saturday morning. Unfortunately it also affected the contact form which meant the ordinary back-up system was affected too. However messages were put across the three major social networks and on the top of the website giving those who hadn’t yet submitted their prediction the chance to do so via alternative means. Further information was then put in the round-up a few days ago to further aid people. Under the circumstances everything possible was done to maximise the opportunity for people to enter their predictions. I don’t know why you thought the round ‘wouldn’t count’ when the notice on Monday made no mention of that happening.

      1. Don’t worry @keithcollantine, I ain’t bitter. You’re doing a good job solving issues. It’s just I’m Massa-esque pointing the finger elsewhere. Long life to F1F.

        1. Well, I for one might as well not have bothered putting my tips in – dismal result! I just keep sliding back through the field :(

  2. Argh!
    It’s always so annoying when you predict everyone one position away from their actual results.

    So close, yet so far!

  3. @Keith: Could you please provide an email-address for sending in predictions, in case the bug ever repeats?
