I HATE Bottas. Had top 6 correct with him leading. He is a blackhole of "luck"...finally gets his elbows out at the start, then a poor lockup but still a good chance of an undercut only to see his freaking MGU-H fail.

As far as Stroll/Hulk...I can leave it up to the group. Arsenal, Jayswin, and Speede5 all picked Stroll. It has an impact on the standings as Jayswin would go from +2 to +7 in the race for 2nd. Personally I would say no to it counting. We pick the drivers not cars, there's always a chance someone gets hurt in qualy, and we have a Friday midnight cutoff to spice things up. I also think had we known Stroll was out that would affect where you may pick Hulk. I should also look at British GP and when Perez got sick (think it was a day or two before though). Plus Stroll is garbage and should never be picked

I've left the standings as is (no replacement points; TBD)...happy to go with what the group thinks. 2020...the year of Covid and squirts...

Cecil would win the prize from Speede5 (thanks again!!!) with the best week at 19pts + 3 correct picks. This is assuming no replacement points...if we decide to include Hulk then Cecil + Jayswin are tied.

Spoiler!
