Fantasy Formula 1 - Brazil: The other stuff

*sniffle*

This is it then. Fantasy Formula 1 is over for another year. What will you do all winter?! Will you cope? Does anyone actually care? Is anyone really OUT THERE? Can Kimi have a choc ice now?

There's just the stats'n'stuff to get out of the way. Brace yourselves...


Naughty corner? Even Lewis & Felipe made-up. Just for a change... no-one!

Hero: Doubt we’ll see him again, but Rubens – dignified and cheery, friendly and honest. There aren’t many of those left in Formula 1.

Fantasy Formula 1 driver of the day was Webber, with 27 points.

The top 3 drivers of the season were Vettel, Button and Alonso. Honourable mentions go to Schumacher in 6th, and Heidfeld, who managed 11th, despite only competing in 11 races.

The top 3 teams of the season were Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari. Virgin punched above their weight in FF1 land, finishing 9th.

Congratulations to Henry, who wins the FF1 title with an impressive 62 point lead. As last year, only 2 competitors cleared the 1000 point mark.

In the end, 560 point separated Henry in first and Jon in last. Ouch.

Right, then! For those of you who have competed before, here’s how you got on:

Better than ever before (smartypants!): Henry & Chris J.

Somewhere in-between their previous best and worst positions (meh): Peter, Martin S, Olie B, Nigel, Elmon, Russell, Tony, Joy, James & Tony’s Mum.

Truly abysmal outing (losers!): Jane, Ollie C*, Steve M, Stephen H, Andy S & Paul. (* Bit harsh seeing as he came 2nd, but it’s his own fault for winning it last year!)

Fantasy Formula 1: Where it’s time for a lie-down for me. I’ll post Formula 1 related ramblings on the blog over the winter months, and hopefully see you all again in the spring.

Next race: Teensy wait... Australian GP on 18th March...

Faking it for real

By
As Donald “I’m really great, everybody says so” Trump is so fond of pointing out, there is a lot of fake news around nowadays. Honest. Your friends at Facebook think so too, and have recently been publishing their top tips for spotting false news – by placing them as ads in newspapers. Considering they came in for considerable criticism themselves, that’s like shouting “Squirrel!” and pointing at a tree whilst you hastily kick away the prize begonias you just trampled. To help you make sense of this (and because I’m a caring person), I thought I’d run you through their suggestions and help to explain them for you. I know. I’m lovely. 1. Be sceptical of headlines READING THIS ARTICLE WILL IMPROVE YOUR SEX LIFE!!! And explain that catchy headlines, or stuff all in capitals might be a bit iffy. 2. Look closely at the URL You can find out more about this at www.wowyouregullible.com if you want to understand how phony web addresses are a sure sign of dodgyness. 3. Investigate...

Going Underground

By
The US presidential election and Brexit must have made me more nervous than I’d realised. It seems I’ve created an underground bunker without realising I was doing it. Still – we’ve all done that at some point, right? No? Ah... In that case, the fact that I have inadvertently turned my cellar into a rudimentary survival shelter, just in case it all kicks off, demonstrates a severe case of bunker mentality. Fretting about Donald and his wall, and Hillary and her emails, clearly made me more paranoid that I thought about the possibility of WW3 kicking off. Whilst attempting to find a specific size of imperial washer the other day (turns out I’d mis-filed it in the nut cabinet – Tsk!) I was struck by what a lot of jam and chutney we have in the cellar. And I do mean a LOT. There are boxes of boiled-up sugar and fruit and more boxes of boiled up vinegar and fruit. We’re still only part way through 2015’s output too. Then there’s the plastic containers holding pasta in various for...

When in Rome...

By
...have a Grand Prix. Seems that the idea of a street race around Rome is on the cards. That'd be pretty exciting, wouldn't it? Any other suggestions? Basingstoke? Didcot? Reading? "And here's Alonso on Broad Street, just past Heelas and getting dangerously close to the Marks & Sparks cardigan display".... No? OK then. (More MP3 toons - Enigma "La Puerta Del Cieulu")
