I rarely choose Vettel as winner because last year, everytime I did, he didn't win :P

I didn't choose Vettel as winner because I thought everyone else would and wanted to be different!

Interesting system, but one that's not going to score many points.

Has the results accounted for Saubers disqualification?

I feel the same way about Schumacher; every time I picked him in the top five, he didn't finish in the top ten at all. He was my single biggest source of lost points last season, and I fell right into the same trap this time.

No, I only just heard about that. The team is going to appeal their disqualification, so I'll wait until that's settled before updating the scores (if necessary). Not that the F1 steward are known for changing their decisions...

The round two entry form is up now. Deadline is midnight on Thursday 7th of April 2011.

Sauber have decided not to appeal, which means the scores have been revised. There's a new link.

Rather annoyingly, I've fallen from third to seventh.

Don't forget, folks, the next deadline is midnight on Thursday. I've only had two entries so far. The entry form link is in my signature.

Yes, I got them. The form should tell you that you've been successful after you submit it.

Submitted! Must. Retain. Lead.

Pirelli reckon there could be FOUR stops in Malaysia if the track temperature is up. Could shake it up a bit.

I'm pleased to say that all eight people that entered the first round have also entered the second. I can also reveal that seven of them picked the same winner!

^ Yes, it was a bit obvious, but as it turned out, seven of us were correct in picking Sebastian Vettel as the winner.

Here are the results for the second round. The updated standings can be seen by switching to the second "sheet" of the document, hopefully everyone knows how to do that. Congratulations go to tubeguru once again for the highest round score, and for retaining his overall lead. I'm last :(

I didn't manage to watch the race, only listen to it on the radio. Those of you who did see it, what did you think? It sounded pretty exciting, but once again there was no battle for first position, and Vettel's lead in the WDC is now 24 points, nearly one victory's worth already.

Here's the new entry form, for round 3. The race is only a week away, so don't hang around getting your predictions in!
