I suppose that was when Michael finished all the races and you pick Michael by default to win :D

This year it will be easy for me cause I'll pick Alonso The Cute to win by default 8)
I'm back and yes supporting Alonso "The Cute" in the Ferrari!

Funnily enough although he won the championship, I certainly would not have been in the top 20 if I did that. He only won 6 races.
Ok, Lewis may win the WDC in 07, but Sato will beat him in 08.

There is probally a very simple explanation but I was wondering???Why when I look at the member list at the top of the page there are only 354 persons ( idiots) registered on the NewsonF1 Forums. But when the 8 on pole comp is running I can come 407th out of 1481 Could it be that some one accidently added 07 and I was really coming 4th??? :lol: Im sure thats what happened. I must be a lot better than I thought I was in that case. so watch out this year. 8)

Very reasonable explanation but I'd be careful calling all the other 353 persons idiots :!: some may be angry with that :wink:

But just in case you are still wondering, the forum started in 2005 while 8 'n' Pole stared in 2001. The forums members list has a long long way to catch up :D . Not to mention that they are 2 separate lists :shock: :shock:

You will do better this year. You must believe that :wink:

Thank you 8'n' pole Admin
Meant Idiots in the nicest way. :oops:
OK so I didnt really come 4th but perhaps if those 1127 others cannot be bothered to register on the forum perhaps they should be penalised. perhaps they could get half scores.

For a quicker response, address it to 8 'n' Pole Admin who is supposed to be launching the 2006 competition this week :wink:

The group name is F1 idiots (case sensitive)
