It is exactly less than a week before first practice in Australia, this means that the 2015 season is almost ready to start. Kals has organized this game for 2 years but now chose to pass the torch.
Shamelessly I copy/paste some of the rules, because not much is changing. But where in the last two editions the person with the lowest score was the winner, I’d like to make one big change and turn that around. This year the person with the highest score will be the winner. This means that you will actually want your pick to finish as bad as possible, or even not finish at all for any reason. It’s a bit morbid but this might keep things interesting until the last laps of the race.
For those that are unfamiliar with the game and to recap for everyone else, it is very simple:

All you need to do is pick one driver per race and the place they finish is the points you will score. The person with the highest score at the end of the season will win. For instance, if you pick Kimi Raikkonen for Australia and he wins then you score 1 point... Should you choose Pastor Maldonado and he finishes 18th, then you score 18 points.

I've tried to keep it simple and allow you to enter now and basically forget about it for the rest of the season.

The Rules:
- The person with the highest total score at the end of the season will be Champion
- Pick one driver per race (only the driver, not the finishing position)
- You can only choose a driver once in the season
- There are 20 races and 20 drivers so every driver has to be used once and only once. It is already known that Alonso will not race in Australia and that he will be replaced by Magnussen. In the case that you pick Alonso for Australia, points will be awarded for the position that Magnussen finishes in. The same goes for other races where a driver is replaced by another one. Manor have yet to announce their 2nd driver, for now you can use “Manor pilot #2”.
- At this moment it is still unclear if the German GP will happen, I will look what we can do when it is cancelled but for now we will assume that it will take place.
- Points will be awarded based on the finishing position of the driver picked... i.e. 1st scores 1 point down to 20 points for 20th place finish
- Should a driver retire from a race, then you will score points for the position they end in... i.e. driver to retire first finishes 20th, therefore 20 points scored
- For the purposes of scoring and avoidance of doubt, the results for each race will be taken from F1.com
- Picks can only be changed, updated or amended up until the start of SECOND practice on Friday and not thereafter. Changes and new entries will not be accepted after that.
- Scores will be updated the week after each race has run
- A tie breaker is required to avoid any potential equal scores
- The tie breaker will be the following: How many points will McLaren-Honda have scored before the Japanese GP in Suzuka, owned and built by Honda.
- Tie breaker will only be used at the end of the season and in the event that any entrants have the same scores
- Please post all picks at the start of the season as follows (including answer to tie breaker):

1. Australia -
2. Malaysia -
3. China -
4. Bahrain -
5. Spain -
6. Monaco -
7. Canada -
8. Austria -
9. Great Britain -
10. Germany -
11. Hungary -
12. Belgium -
13. Italy -
14. Singapore -
15. Japan -
16. Russia -
17. USA -
18. Mexico -
19. Brazil -

Tie breaker: ... points

Live long and prosper
