This is a very popular game arround the world, there are a lot of versions.
The most popular way to play is using the Email Groups system (like YahooGroups and MsnGroups).
You have to predict who will be the top 8 drivers in the Qualifying sesion and who will be the top 8 after the race.
The closer you are to the real result, more points you get. Qualy gives half score and race gives you complete score.
How to play
When the Grand Prix weekend comes, there will be a topic for post your Qualy predictions and another for the race. Time deadline to post is the time the qualy or race starts.
You can post both at the same time or wait for the qualy results to post your race predictions.
You get "marks" for the difference between your predictions and the real result, these marks are like the F1 scoring system.
Marks Table
Example: If you pick Barrichello at the Pole Potition and he gets the Pole, you get 10 marks, if he gets the 2nd place you get 8 marks, if he gets the 8th place you get 1 mark.
The same for each of your 8 predicted racers, but only the top 8 count. That means: if you predict Fisichella ending 8th and he ends 9th you get nothing.
After the qualy, the competitors predictions are compared and who obtained more marks gets 5 points (half of F1 scoring system) the second one gets 4 and so.
After the race you get the complete score. So you can get a max. of 15 points each weekend.
Scoring Table
About teams!
You have to find a team-mate and choose a name for your team and your colours. There will be also a "Constructors Championship". Both competitors points are added to the Team points.
If it is not clear enough post your questions here. I will make an example in a topic.
