Wow!!!

My non-thinking, non-caring system is coming through trumps this season - first time I've used it from the start of the competition, and I'm top - crazy

Okay, it's time to reveal all!

^ Big move for Verstappen and a good move IMHO for Red Bull. Kvyat is a complete and utter nutter.... then again he is a Ruski..!! 90% Tw@ts IMO of those I've met are - and not just the tourists... I've worked there and have worked with them.

This move could drive Kvyat around the bend and make him even more reckless. Look out if he thinks he has nothing to lose and will be dismissed at the end of the season. Pete

It is simple. I just look at the drivers standings on the left of the page, and pick in exactly the same order - the only skill required is the ability to read.

It indeed makes putting any thought into the process, reading articles or analyzing spreadsheets a waste of time. If you keep up the same practice all season, lets see where you are at the end. Pete

EDIT: Let us know if you change it.

[Big Boy]

I started part way through last season and gradually rose to my best finish ever. Before that. I'd always been bottom 3.

I think its kept me in the top 3 so far this season.

Bsdk1960.....I see they haven't given you default picks for Russia yet. I emailed them this morning about it. Hopefully they will appear soon. Pete

[PeteC]
