Hello Dare, any rules about when we have to post our Drivers up. Can we wait until Qualifying is over?

Neil.P

I forgot to put in rules that the wagering will be locked
1 hour before qualifying,up until then you can modify
your wager as many times as you wish.

Dare, I take it that we pick our 8 before each race and that we can alter the line-up for every race or do we have to stick with our original 8 all season

there will be a different thread for each race,so every
race you can pick all new drivers

Once you pick your drivers for a race you can modify
your picks up to one hour before qualifying

It's best to get a pick in early in case you forget,as you
can always modify your picks later

I think dare, would like a bit more notice so he can get his store set out.
It is only a game rom,you can always copy mine if you are not sure?

The Stig

you can post or modify your picks up to 1 hour before
qualifying.Doesn't matter when you post as far as I'm
concerned

I just like to post early in case I forget or I get knocked
off line for any reason.Like I said you can modify your
picks after Friday pratice if you wish

What does  wet or dry - no  mean?

Presumably we are supposed to put either wet or dry rather than yes or no.

How about....

Will the FIA jump in after the race and screw with the points?

 ;)

Seriously, thanks for running the game again this season, Dare! :good:

What constitutes a wet race in this competition?  Is it the FIA declaring it a wet race or is it a wet race if there is obvious rain or ground water?  I am not trying to be awkward it will save a lot of arguing later if the rule is absolutely clear.  Just like measuring fuel temperature.

I"m gonna base the results on the F1,com official results.I
believe last year they declared races dry or wet on their
site.

Any other questions,it's best to get them settled now before
the season starts

Steven you brought up a good question.Does
the F1 official results declare a race officially Wet.
If not we need to get something to base it on or
maybe remove it.
