Yes, luckily we've had De Vries already so the driver swap takes us up to 21 random drivers. Daniel Ricciardo has been added to the list at a random point between now and the end of the season. One more driver change and we won't have to re-use a random driver for the 22nd race!

And yes, I'm sure I'll be very much tempted to have a honey badger-flavoured bonus question for the Hungarian GP.

Results - Hungarian Grand Prix

1713729762_Screenshot2023-07-24191251.thumb.png.f87ad202ec2170c72bfd2e87a4fbac15.png

For once, the blanket Verstappen pole prediction didn't come off this weekend, with nobody brave enough to veer from the rest of the pack, it's a sea of red for this weekend's pole position predictions.

The other prediction that was resolved on Saturday was the question of which Alpha Tauri driver would qualify best. Using the Q1 times for comparison (not really fair to use the Q2 Medium run for Ricciardo's eventual time), the returning Aussie pipped Tsunoda by 0.013 seconds. While @Stan, @MUFC and @The Palace Fan correctly predicted which way round the two drivers would line up, only @Whiskey and @Coma went for a narrow enough margin to pick up the 5 points.

Normal service was resumed on Sunday, with Verstappen's win granting every single person 5 points. @OrangeKhrush was the only person to predict a second podium finisher exactly correct, placing Lando Norris in 2nd to score another 5 points. @nudge also deserves credit as the only person to predict all three podium finishers correctly, but missed out on the perfect podium jackpot with Perez and Norris the wrong way round. @RandoEFC, @Stan, @MUFC, @Tommy, @Whiskey, @The Palace Fan and @DeadLinesman all predicted either Perez or Norris on the podium but in the wrong position, leaving them with a total of 7 points for their podiums, with @Coma left out of the fun.

Finally, our random driver was classified despite a late retirement for the second race running. As Logan Sargeant didn't finish the race but was also officially classified in 18th place, 5 points each go to @Stan, @DeadLinesman and @OrangeKhrush for this prediction, leaving the latter as this weekend's top scorer.

928397915_Screenshot2023-07-24191352.thumb.png.a78eed24aedb3b11ad9a9017bc8e38ca.png

Hungary's top scorer, @OrangeKhrush leaps from 4th to 1st in the individual championship, with @RandoEFC losing 2 places in the process having slipped behind @Stan. @Whiskey and @DeadLinesman also gain a few points on those around them.

Mercedes consolidate their lead in the Constructors' Championship as this weekend's joint highest scorers. Aston Martin have lost two positions in the standings after scoring the fewest points this week. Alpine outscored the three teams above them meaning that the four teams behind Mercedes are now separated by just 2 points overall.

Predictions for Belgium will be up tomorrow.

I think it'll happen to be honest. But I've been contacted by your team principal. He wants me to replace you 😮

But we're in the same team? Swap seats? 🤔

I never I was in the team section. I thought them slots were limited. I remember you saying earlier in the season that I need to up my game. The comment made no sense but 4 months down the it now does 🤣

Predictions - Belgian Grand Prix

Below are your predictions for the Belgian Grand Prix. As it's a Sprint weekend, your deadline for predictions is before qualifying on Friday!

@RandoEFC @Stan @MUFC @Tommy @nudge @Whiskey  @The Palace Fan @Coma @DeadLinesman @OrangeKhrush

Pole Position - Which driver will post the fastest lap in Q3?

[INSERT DRIVER]

Podium - Which drivers will finish the Grand Prix in the top three positions?

1. [INSERT DRIVER]

2. [INSERT DRIVER]

3. [INSERT DRIVER]

Random Driver - Predict the finishing position of this week's random driver, Alexander Albon.

[INSERT POSITION]

Bonus Question - The last race before the summer break can often be pivotal for under-pressure F1 drivers. Your job this weekend is to choose which driver is going to have the worst weekend overall. The scoring will be a bit different for this week's Bonus Question. You will receive points for each of the following things that happen to your chosen driver:

  • Qualifies behind team-mate for Grand Prix (1 point).
  • Qualifies behind team-mate for Sprint (1 point).
  • Beaten by team-mate in Sprint (1 point).
  • Fails to finish Sprint (2 points).
  • Beaten by team-mate in Grand Prix (1 point).
  • Fails to finish Grand Prix (2 points).
  • Causes a red flag/virtual safety car/full safety car in any session (1 point each time).

A DNF will score you the 2 points but you won't get an additional point in this instance for also getting "beaten" by their team-mate. The "causing red flag/SC/VSC" one will be awarded even if it's a mechanical issue i.e. not their fault. However, if Driver A gets wiped out by Driver B in an incident that is clear Driver B's fault, causing a safety car, Driver A will not count as having caused the safety car.

[INSERT DRIVER]

Good luck!
