Here are the details for the pool...I was thinking we could keep the rules the same and then change them next year when the regs change

- Picks due FRIDAY midnight Calgary time. All picks must be submitted before qualifying and this is just an easy cut off. If your picks get posted Sunday morning at 5am...no bueno.
- Everyone gets 2 missed race weekends. After that you'll get NO ENTRIES for the rest of the missed races. The missed race picks will be the picks from the week before. If you miss 3 race weekends...no bueno.
- 1 point for right pick in top 10, 4 points for correct slot, 1 extra point for correct slotted driver who gets fastest lap.

Prizes...last 2 years almost everyone chipped in $10 and we got some Villeneuve swag for Latifi + Stroll. Happy to do it again this year...open to ideas/theme. I'll aim for 3 prizes again. And I'm sold out of Lauda hats.
- Most Total Points...Overall Champ...Trophy & first pick of prizes
- Second Most Total Points...second prize choice
- Most Correct picks...last choice

We may even have carryover prizes if Jayswin and Agulati dont pick up there 2020 prizes

So...if you send $10 I'll aggregate it all and see what I can get. Everyone who pays has a chance to win. No pay, no prizes...but you can still be champion. Email: Mullen1989@hotmail.com with your CP handle.

Side bets: @Jayswin...Stroll finishes 8th or worse, $20...@anyone, Perez finishes within 26pts (1 race win) of Verstappen. $20

Hopefully that works for everyone...I'm stoked for the season!!
BUMP!

FLAMESRULE / Agulati / 3thirty / btimbit / Fleuryisgod / Fuzz / Jepworth / Jayswin / Woob / DoubleK / arcfyr / speede5 / TimSJ - $ received, thanks!

Hopefully we can get a few more. Cecil suddenly stopped logging into CP which is a little worrisome as he's a habitual, daily poster.

Second longest circuit after Spa. I don't really see many overtaking spots.

It looks terrible.

I like this comment on the video.

Fun Fact: This circuit was originally designed to be clockwise, but the crown prince wanted as few rights as possible.

Just checking in too see where CecilT / Stazzy / GreatWhiteEbola / JohnnyMak /DFO / Arsenal14 / Nsd1 are at for prizes...And you do NOT HAVE TO pay to play in the pool...it's just for the prizes and trophy.

Like I mentioned I'll keep the prize pool open till the 4th race and then close it up. Open to any suggestions on prizes as well.

Maybe we should make a post in the Random Thoughts thread letting people know about the pool? Or something similar.

I think we had 16 paid players last year (13 so far this year). I'm sure once we get closer to next week and the pool rolling (and keep the F1 thread at the top) people will join in.

I'm just stoked Agulati and Jayswin haven't stopped by to collect their prizes. We could have something for 3rd and 4th place this year

I might as well pick up my back to back wins at the same time.
