Two players are tied for the lead of the Predictions Championship after the Monaco Grand Prix round.
Carpy3 and Chrissylyn each have 65 points following a difficult round in which most players struggled to score in double figures.
The highest scorer was Tango11 with 19, who wins a 1972 Autocourse eBook.
Formula 1 took second place after beating OmarR-Pepper in the pole position time tie-breaker. They win a Grand Prix Heroes DVD and F1 poster respectively.
For the second week in a row few players correctly picked the race winner before qualifying started – just 11 (1.2%) named Mark Webber as the winner and 12 (1.3%) tipped him to take pole position.
Lewis Hamilton was the favourite both for pole position (43.2%) and the win (34.9%).

Amaizingly, this was my best round so far this year :P. Predicted Rosberg on 2nd and Vettel on 4th correctly. Had I followed my heart, I’d have put Webber on pole and win… but I didn’t. Heh.

I had Rosberg, Alonso, Vettel and Hamilton in my top 5, but none in the correct spot :/

Had Alonso in third, and Hamilton in the top 5 (1), so a whopping 4 points this time!. Also I initially predicted Perez and Maldonado in the top 5, but I swapped Maldonado for Massa (5). Should have put Webber in there as well, but after his comments that he didn’t think RBR could challenge for pole I gave the Red Bulls a miss…

Wow, almost doubled my score this week! I was expecting a wet quali if anyone’s wondering why the time is so high (or why I went for Webber).

Yet another terrible showing from me, 3 points! Currently ranked around 700.

I would like to say that my success was down to having watched F1 since the days of the Lotus 77 in its JSP livery, but it would be a lie. Success in the Prediction Championship this year seems to be as random as the driver’s championship.
Great competition in its own right – prizes a nice bonus. Thanks Keith.

8.6 points average so far, 5 this week, and I find myself tied at #31. Crazy! Are previous year’s prediction results still available for viewing?

I was all over this round but fate dealt me a cruel hand – check this out.
My Pole Time – 01:14.300 – fastest time 01:14.301 but then Shuey was sent back 5 grids
My Pole – Nico Rosberg – I had the right team but the wrong driver
My Position 1 – Fernando Alonso – finished third
My Position 2 – Mark Webber – finished first
My Position 3 – Nico Rosberg- finished second
My Position 4 – Jenson Button – the less said the better
My Position 5 – Sergio Perez – close but no banana
So all I get is 3 points – I could have been a contender!

@Drive if you hold Ctrl f on the predictions table, a bar should come up and you can type your name in and it will find any matches to it.
