F1 Fanatic

I thought in light of the current see-sawing championship I’ve decided to revive this old thread I did, just for the hell of it.

After Australia
Button – 10
Vettel – 8
Hamilton – 6
Webber – 5
Alonso – 4
Kobayashi – 3
Raikkonen – 2
Perez – 1

After Malaysia
Alonso – 14
Hamilton – 12
Webber – 10
Button – 10
Perez – 9
Vettel – 8
Raikkonen – 6
Kobayashi – 3
Senna – 3
di Resta – 2
Vergne – 1

After China
Button – 18
Hamilton – 18
Webber – 15
Alonso – 14
Vettel – 12
Rosberg – 10
Perez – 9
Raikkonen – 6
Senna – 5
Kobayashi – 3
Grosjean – 3
di Resta – 2
Vergne – 1
Maldonado – 1

After Bahrain
Vettel – 22
Webber – 20
Hamilton – 19
Button – 18
Alonso – 16
Rosberg – 14
Raikkonen – 14
Perez – 9
Grosjean – 9
Senna – 5
di Resta – 5
Kobayashi – 3
Vergne – 1
Maldonado – 1

After Spain
Vettel – 25
Alonso – 24
Webber – 20
Hamilton – 20
Raikkonen – 20
Button – 18
Rosberg – 16
Grosjean – 14
Maldonado – 11
Perez – 9
Kobayashi – 7
Senna – 5
di Resta – 5
Vergne – 1

I didn’t put it up there because honestly it wouldn’t make much difference – there’s not much to be seen there, but what IS interesting is how the placements would change between old and new points systems. Such as Button in China being joint leader with Lewis, and how Alonso wouldn’t be equal on points with Vettel (as of this post)

Yeah – the thing is, because all of the points in the new system are more, basically the gap gets multiplied along with the points (basic algebra: 2X-2Y = 2 x (X-Y)

@matt90 what makes you say that?

Monaco update

Alonso – 30
Vettel – 30
Webber – 30
Rosberg – 24
Hamilton – 24
Raikkonen – 20
Button – 18
Grosjean – 14
Maldonado – 11
Perez – 9
Kobayashi – 7
Senna – 5
di Resta – 7
Massa – 3
Hulkenberg – 1
Vergne – 1

Yes the differences mainly come out if you’ve come in 2nd place before – and also if you’ve come in 9th or 10th. Otherwise it’s pretty much the same all the way through.

Whether or not it’s close, we have to apply a multiple of 2.5 to normalise.

Here:
Alonso – 75 (76)
Vettel – 75 (73)
Webber – 75 (73)
Rosberg – 60 (59)
Hamilton – 60 (63)
Raikkonen – 50 (51)
Button – 45 (45)
Grosjean – 35 (35)
Maldonado – 27.5 (29)
Perez – 22.5 (22)
Kobayashi – 17.5 (19)
di Resta – 17.5 (21)
Senna – 12.5 (15)
Massa – 7.5 (10)
Hulkenberg – 2.5 (7)
Vergne – 2.5 (4)

It’d be cool if you put the ranking up for each driver too.
