2014 British GP Predictions Championship results

F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship

Posted on

| Written by

Eleven Predictions Championship players shared the top scores for the British Grand Prix in what proved a fairly low-scoring round.

With most players not unreasonably expecting another Mercedes one-two, Nico Rosberg’s retirement spoiled more than a few predictions.

The pole position time tie-breaker had to be used to decide the top three – and for the first time ever even that wasn’t enough. With two players tied for third place, another means of separating them had to be found. Third place and the final prize was eventually given to the player who had posted their prediction first – which happened to be current points leader @Djqz. Commiserations to fourth-placed player Karl Benz.

Here are this week’s winners in full.

  1. Damn. Shouldn’t of gambled on a Ricciardo pole -_- Could have snagged joint top-spot then

    1. Same here, also Ricciardo on pole :(

  2. Kudos to BerndMaylander for correctly predicting a HAM-BOT-RIC podium!

    1. Yeah, that was a hell of a pick. Congrats, BerndMaylander.

      1. Danke schoen, guys, but I confess it was a total guess. I was going to update my prediction after third practice but forgot.

  3. Sweet – finally made it into the top 10.

  4. Closest I’ve ever been to getting top score.

  5. Oh well… Maybe next time! I’ve come close once already this season!

  6. I’d like to point out that while I compete I can’t actually win the prizes due to being a family relation, this is why my pole time will always be 1:11.111

  7. ah, one geardbox, one accident and one Sebastian probably robbed me of perfect prediction
    but it’s good anyway, it was pure fun to watch Bottas storming through the field and then on the podium

  8. Just when I think I’m going to get the jump on the rest of you, Nico’s gearbox explodes :(

  9. I missed being a winner by two points…
