Pole 10 pts Fastest lap 10 pts Driver of the day - Choose your driver of the day, and get half a point for every position gained. No minus points for lost places. 5 Bonus points to be awarded if prediction is made before first practice for the race, times as per BBS clock and actual practice start times. NOTE - A forecast prior to FP1 can not be changed (even if a late grid penalty occurs). A forecast made after the start of FP1 can be changed with no penalty at any time up to the start of Qualification. A forecast made after the start of Qualification will attract a 10 point penalty. Long term forecasts MAY be changed between races. However, by definition, they may not be altered again until after completion of the next race. Therefore, maximum points for a race week are now (25+18+15+12+10+10+10+5 = 105 Points) Predictions are welcome by PM, please PM Mike Douglas and I will post them on the thread before the race if this option is used. Note : Timings are taken as per post or edit times if post is changed.

Been looking at the car changes on Youtube. Lots of small changes, Especially the floor. If you like engineering, its good watching.

Looks like Red Bull will take over the Honda engine at the end of this season. They are building / assigning garage space solely for engine work and development.
And hints of new engine regs in the near future (for a simpler and therefore cheaper drivetrain) suggest that Red Bull may continue in the engine game for some time.
