Predict Pole Time - 2008 French Grand Prix
Predict the Pole Time for the 2008 French Grand Prix
Go ahead and have a crack at the fastest times from the 3 sessions of Qualifying or just the Pole time (fastest time in the 3rd session) and lets see who can be closest in Magny Cours.
If someone gets a perfect match or near perfect (+/- 0.1 seconds) for 1 time, we'll give away a prize. (A choice between an Digital Alarm Clock and a Stopwatch).
And an even better prize if you get a perfect match or near perfect (+/- 0.1 seconds) for 2 times (A USD $100 instant gift certificate or equavilent from a choice of suppliers!) and better still if you get a perfect match or near perfect (+/- 0.1 seconds) for 3 times (A USD $250 instant gift certificate or equavilent from a choice of suppliers!)
For each of the above, getting the correct driver adds a bonus gift.
Please include the time to the 1000's of a second and the driver. You can if you wish include a wet time as well
For reference, the Pole time in 2007 was a 1:15.034 by Felipe Massa.
Good luck everyone!
The Fine Print
One entry (dry and wet) per user with one change per condition allowed. Entries close prior to the start of first practice on Thursday
The winner will be the one who manages to predict the closest time(s). You need to be within 0.1 seconds of the fastest times to be declared the winner.
In the case of two players predicting the same time(s) and driver(s), the player who submitted earlier will be the winner.
Changing time(s) and/or driver(s) is allowed only once and the change cannot be a max or min to try and gain advantage (eg. if the fastest time posted is a 1:45.345, a player cannot change their time to a time above that)

Thanks lordkoala for bringing this up.What if Lewis Hamilton sets the fastest time?
With a 10 spot penalty, will his time be regarded as the pole time for the purposes of this competition?
If Lewis Hamilton does indeed set the fastest time in Q3, as the official Pole time won't be that time, then his time for the purpose of this competition won't be considered.
This will only be for Q3. For Q1 and Q2, his times will count if they are fastest.
Hope this clarifies this situation.
