How's that hey? Two in a row (I couldn't enter the Oz race). And I just took posession of my stop watch today too.

Thought you'd appreciate my non-partisan pick of Button in all three sessions!

Just 0.158 seconds off the actual time. Pretty close Julian but not enough for a prize this time

Just 0.048 seconds off the actual time. Well done Mark Whitehouse. You've won a choice of NewsOnF1 Smart Digital Clock with Alarm or a NewsOnF1 Stopwatch again!

It was very close though as JayVee was just 0.049 seconds off the actual time!!

Hard luck JayVee, it has never been closer than this before!

Close too was Julian

Julian Mayo wrote:s3 webber 1:22:862

Just 0.067 seconds off the actual time!

This is the second race that more than one player gets within 0.1 of the time.

How ?

Mark Whitehouse let us know which prize you want.
We should have waited and sent you both prizes together

Perhaps we should wait a few events and send all your future winnings together

Please add your comments here on how you managed such a close time (and JayVee and Julian too!!)

You guys are amazing!
Well done

Sorry JayVee, that is hard luck. 1/1000th of a second!

The theory this time was old skool. Be patient all through the prediction session, then come out right at the end to steal pole.

But that's not very exciting for the spectators at the forum, so for next race I promise to get a "banker" lap time in nice and early.

Think I'll have a matching alarm clock this time Tim ....... you know the address

Thanks so much.

Another alarm clock...hmmm

Your not building another time machine are you? Or are you an obsessive compulsive time keeper?
