I was ranked at 600-something. In 2007 I will submit from race #1 and get a good final score. We will all do better next year At least I cannot do worse than 2006.

How can we will all do better next year

If everyone gets one higher rank then we will all have done better

I thought that would be your explanation but I have 2 problems with that:

- You added an 'if' clause which is an illegal condition when used with the 'will' function

- What happens to JD ?

Okay, let's clear em up.

It is no ordinary will function. It's willpower! It's a will-have-done function which presents a perfectly legal condition in conjunction with the IF

Even in the US

Well, I stated "If everyone gets one higher rank then we will all have done better". JD can't do better. That means that not everyone will get a higher rank, consequently not all will do better

That's magic of IF

See ya all
Hey Bigu, at least you can tell us what you pick every race and we can copy you so we can all finish in the top 10 next year

What do you say ?

Caution: Forums are addictive and rarely can you find anything better or more satisfying than talking on them. But you never never know if you never never try

Well done anyway

See you in March OK

I'm a real fan of F1 and I think with my luck I managed to reach top 10 for the last 3 years. 2 years ago I also won a trip to Monte-Carlo (4 nights, all inclusive, airplane, etc) at a F1 contest to Autoshow Magazine (it's an romanian magazine).
see you all in the next year competition

Hi there everybody! I'm really glad I managed to finish in the Top 20 again. Congratulations to all the winners and especially to JD!
It's nice to see Romanians again in the Top 20.
It's been a nice competition (except for the very long time it has sometimes taken for the results to reach us).
@Filip Daniel: Bravo, ar trebui sa ajungi in primii 3 la anul!
(For those of you who don't speak Romanian, that roughly translates to: Well done, you should aim for the Top 3 next year!)
PS: Before someone starts counting my posts, this is my first one, as I have just registered today.
Have fun everybody! Looking forward to an even better competition next year!

You guys just blow me out.....I am starting to think I should spend more than 30 seconds on my picks

I have no such ambitions. There are roughly 2000 players registered. I will be happy if I finish in the top 1000.

Don't get me wrong though. Of course I will try my best to contribute to F1 Idiots' success

I'm sure it will be

As always the first race of the season i.e. Australian GP on the 18th of March next year will be very hard to predict !!!

There should be a lot of guys who can regularly take pole and/or challenge for a win. Kimi in a Ferrari, his team mate Massa, Button in his Honda, Alonso now with Mclaren and Fisi with his Renault...

Then at the end of this year BMW & Toyota seem to get their act together and promised to do much better next year.

I think we are in 4 a cracker of a 2007 Season

Hear ye, hear ye!

I just hope that McLaren holds and Kimi doesn't break the Ferraris... As for Honda I would like to see them be faster, though I have my doubts as before the engine freeze they were not doing super good. Toyota need to have more ambition. Renault too. Fisi has to get quicker.

I'm not trying to take anything away from the likes of Schumi and Alonso, but I do believe that Kimi had very bad luck the last two years or so...

I use to be a huge McLaren supporter, but they just weren't reliable or fast enough through the year...

Kimi has great ability, no question about that. However his driving style raises some questions. People are asking why it was his McLaren that consistently developed problems. Either he's extremely unlucky or he's too demanding on the car. This shall yet be seen when he races in a Ferrari

IMHO I think that Michael was also fairly hard on cars so the Ferrari was built to handle the additional stresses of kurb pounding and the like.
