Sofa F1 2010 Championship

2010-03-10T22:17:00.003Z

With the brand spanking new season almost upon us, we are ready to launch the Pole Poll championship for 2010.

What do you have to do if you want to take part?
For each race, before qualifying starts you have to predict who will be on pole and also the top 10 finishers in the race.

You get 2 points if you get the pole sitter correct. You get 4 points for getting the winner right and you get 2 points for each of the other places you get correct.

Also, if you have a 'near miss' eg. the person who you predicted to win comes second, or fifth comes fourth, you get 1 point.

But there is one extra factor.

Before qualifying starts in Bahrain this weekend you need to also predict the top ten finishers in the whole season and who will have the most polls. This works in the same way as though the season was a race except you get double points, rather like 'playing your joker'. As these points are added at the end of the season, this can become the crucial swing factor in the year.

Also before the season starts we want you to pick a MAIDEN winner (i.e. someone who has never won a F1 race before). If the driver you choose wins a race at any time during this season, you will get a 4 point bonus applied immediately to your score. You can of course say "nobody" if you expect that there will be no maiden winners; in this case, you would get the points at the end of the season, if that proves to be the case.

And that's it! Except this year we have a fancy new way to enter the competition (and to make things easier for Bearded Stew).

So to enter you need to give your season predictions here: http://aaserver.co.uk/widgets/poll.cgi?race=0

And your race predictions here: http://aaserver.co.uk/widgets/poll.cgi?race=1

Good luck!

A Strategic Choice?

2010-01-27T22:36:00.002Z

Refuelling has been banned for this season in an attempt to make the racing more exciting (as well as other reasons). Cars will no longer be able to wait behind a lower fuelled car, overtaking them through the pit-stops. Whether this is good or bad is yet to be seen. However, another reason for the rule change was to make qualifying less complicated. Fans wanted to know who was fasted on Saturday, but often they wouldn't find out until lap 20 on race day. Ok, but now, announced today, was an extra rule change that seems to negate the whole thing: the top ten drivers will have to start the race on the same tyres they qualified with. Strategy comes back in to play, and we won't know until half way through Sunday who was really fastest on Saturday.

What's the point?

2009-12-11T15:14:00.002Z

Teams have been coming and going. Drivers have been swapping back and forth and so far nothing has upset the peaceful tranquil that is the sofaF1 site. Until now!

They've only gone and changed the points system!

Actually it doesn't make much of a difference. They have essentially done this for money reasons rather than sporting ones. There are going to be 13 teams next year and they new teams need to get on the score board or they'll go bust.

So they've extended the points down to tenth place and to do this they've made a win a substantially larger 25 points. However don't be fooled the all important ratio of "how many second places equals a first place" is unchanged.

The ratios are pretty stable all the way down as you can see:

Position	New points	Old points
1	25	10
2	20	8
3	15	6
4	10	5
5	8	4
6	6	3
7	5	2
8	3	1
9	2
10	1

The only real anomoly that I can see is the strange points gap between 6-8th. There shouldn't be more of a gap between 7th and 8th than there is between 6th and 7th.

However, other than this, there has been very little change. This means that it has made hardly any difference to the positions from last year for the drivers and actually zero difference to the constrictors. (essentially it makes a difference only if you routinely finished it ninth or tenth)

Thanks to Pat from Too Much Racing for doing the maths on this:

1. Button 230.5
2. Vettel 203
3. Barrichello 183
4. Webber 175
5. Hamilton 120.5
6. Raikkonen 119
7. Trulli 78 (the first order change, was 8th)
8. Rosberg 75.5 (was 7th)
9. Glock 63.5 (was 10th)
10. Alonso 62 (was 9th)

1. Brawn 413.5
2. RBR 378
3. Ferrari 170
4. McLaren 166.5
5. Toyota 149.5
6. BMW 88
7. Williams 80.5
8. Renault 63
9. FIF1 36
10. STR 22.5

So where does that leave the sofaF1 championship? Well my guess is that we should have to predict the top 10. It seems a pretty reasonable, if not slightly daunting prospect.

But maybe you think things should be different? Let us know in the comments before the soFIA conduct our pre-season drinks / council meeting.

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 17 Abu Dhabi

2009-11-01T23:01:00.001Z

I guess most of you saw the race, so I won't bother commenting too much on it, but the circuit looked awesome on television, hopefully we will hear all about it from Fourstar when he gets back.

So cut to the chase, good effort Pete!

… However way back when some of us predicted how the championship would end up, some people didn't but posted for the first race and so automatically inherited those predictions for the championship too, and some people joined too late and missed out on the bonus points. I couldn't find the official ruling on this so I preceded anyway and have awarded the following …

Which leaves the final SofaF1 Championship 2009 standings looking like this...

These results are believed to be correct at the time of going to press, but feel free to feedback any legitimate challenges and they may or may not be considered.

Congratulations Igor, thanks for joining in everyone, especially Jeremy who seemed to have abandoned the legendary prediction device at the end there despite his valiant efforts to make it work all season long.

Keep the sofa warm over the winter, there is bound to be something happening here before March 2010!

Abu Dhabi Pole Poll

2009-10-31T07:20:00.002Z

So this is it the grand finale. The actual season may not be going down to the wire, but as usual the Pole Poll is. Mr C stumbled at the last race, can he pull it back? Will Nick take the win for the first time or will he get second place for the third year in a row (Nick Heidfeld like consistency there). Or will this be the second time in a row that the person enjoying their second year of Pole Polling takes the win. Fourstar went from rookie in 2007 to winner in 2008, Igor was a rookie last year, could he be the one to be crowned 2009 SofaF1 Pole Poll Champion?

What do you need to do? It's simple just give us your prediction, one last time this year, of who the pole sitter will be, and who the top eight will be in the race.

The predictions will be carefully combined with your predictions at the beginning of the season by Bearded Stew and we shall get our championship results!

Thanks to everyone for taking part this year, it has been fun, and an especial thanks to Stew for keeping up with the results with everything that's been going on for him.

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 16 Brazil

2009-10-29T23:24:00.000Z

The championship clincher! Jenson gathers enough points from his 5th place to take the championship with one race to go. Great result for both him and Brawn who seal the constructors title also. Quite an incredible feat since the team were pretty much by the F1 wayside days before the season started. It might sound like a cliché but this has been a career defining season for Jenson, who was basically out of a job and in danger of becoming known in the history books as a nearly man. Ok his points have tailed off a bit late in the season but delivering those early wins set him up nicely.

Talking of nearly men, arguably the unluckiest man in F1, Webber too really had to deliver this season and elevated himself to double grand prix winner. Again remarkable achievement considering his broken leg over last winter season.

Anyway, sorry for the delay, just a few hours to go before the final race of the season gets under way in Abu Dhabi, but the results after Brazil look like this ...

The Brazillian Pole Poll

2009-10-16T11:16:00.002+01:00

So it's getting very very close to the final curtain. But what will be the deciding factor? If Lewis scores another pole then he will be level pegging with Jenson over the season and that could mean a lot of points for people.

It seems like a long time since Japan somehow, but you must remember what to do by now. Predict the Pole sitter, and the top eight finishers for the race.

And the entries close when qualifying starts (not at 1pm!). This week qualifying starts at 6pm. So get those entries in, and good luck!

Japanese Pole Poll

2009-10-02T11:59:00.002+01:00

So it's all hotting up now! Will Mr C maintain his lead at the top or is this the weekend he'll be toppled?

What do we want?

I... don't... know...

Oh no I do remember. We want to know the pole sitter and the top eight finishers in the race. And we want all that before Qualifying starts (remember Qualifying is at a different time tomorrow in the UK!)

Pole Pole Championship - Casting our minds back

2009-09-30T08:35:00.002+01:00

As our championship is closer than the actual championship I thought it might be worth us remembering the one crucial potentially deciding factor from right at the beginning of the season.

Here at SofaF1 we not only ask you to predict each race but we also asked you to predict the whole championship. Yes... Yes we did. And the cut off was before we were even particularly sure that Brawn would be racing let alone a potentially championship winning team.

The idea was to ask people to predict the driver with the most poles, the top eight of the championship and who would be the maiden winner in the season. Nobody actually went for Webber which shows you how much we knew.

You can read what you all predicted here: http://www.sofaf1.com/2009/03/sofaf1-pole-poll-2009-championship.html

We will need to decide probably before the next race what happens if there is a tie in the number of poles. Currently Jenson has the most poles with 4, but Lewis and Vettel are on 3 so it could easily be a tie at the top.

But I have worked out what points we would get (you get double points for everything with the championship predictions and that's been taken into account here):

Igor	8
Rod	6
Mr C	4
Aitch	4
Nick	4
Alex	4
Stew	4
RG	2
GriffF1	2
Christine	0
Fourstar	0
Takuya	0
piqued	0
Jeremy	0
Pete	0

And that leaves the standings at:

Igor	84
Mr C	82
Nick	80
Aitch	68
Alex	64
Rod	61
Bearded Stew	60
Christine	57
PatW	55
GrifF1	54
Lou	50
Sean	41
Jackie	40
Fourstar	40
Pete	39
RG	31
Takuya	29
Piqued	22
Jeremy	16

Good news for Igor and Rod! Bad news for Mr C. But it could all change... All we need is Nico Rosberg to win a race (4 points for about half the people), Lewis to get most poles (4 points for about half the people), and goodness knows what a change to the order might do.

I thought it best to remind everyone now rather than after the result is decided.

And mainly so we can look back to our wise old selves at the beginning of the season and prove that nobody, but nobody, expected *this* season. And anyone who tells you otherwise is probably lying!

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 14 Singapore

2009-09-27T16:13:00.001+01:00

It is a bit weird seeing the likes of Hamilton and Alonso on the podium, where you would expect them to be of course being among the best F1 drivers, but knowing that they have nothing to do with the championship this year which is busy being fought down in 4th , 5th and 6th.

A great spectacle this Singapore race, amazing to watch even if the racing today hasn't been the closest. There was some drama with cars and cars, cars and walls, cars and hosepipes, brakes and mirrors, but Hamilton held on from pole to take a convincing win. Button holds onto vital ground, Vettel making a tiny gain, still in the game but unlikely to overhaul the Brawns now. Webber definitely out of the championship picture. Disappointment for Rosberg and Williams, athough they didn't seem to be expecting much Rosberg looked on for a great podium finish. Glock did pretty well though to drag that Toyota up to the podium, haven't seen too much of him for a while.

Anyway what sort of state is the sofa in now?

Singapore Pole Poll

2009-09-25T22:05:00.002+01:00

As Hunter S Thomson used to say, "I'll have a Singapore Sling with Mescal on the side". Here a SofaF1 we like to be clear about which drink is the beverage and which drink is the chaser. You don't have a whisky chaser. You have whiskey and the beer is the chaser. What happens when you have a cocktail and a short at the same time is anybody's guess. However formula 1 has removed some of the rum bunch that were plaguing the sport and so we have to make sure we don't go against the grain as we make our predictions.

What do we want you to do? We want you to predict who is on pole, who will win the race, and who the 7 chasers are!

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 13 Monza

2009-09-20T23:15:00.000+01:00

Brawn back on top with a good strategy making the most of their car. Barrichello seems to be the dominant driver at the moment and could be on for the championship, but Button does still have the lead, it really is all his to lose now. Hamilton maintaining his qualifying form, charging all the way despite being hampered by his extra stop until he started chasing his own tail and ended up in the wall not far from the chequered flag. Anyway what about us here on the sofa? Jeremy is still bringing up the rear.

Stewards decision was to allow the late entries as they probably wouldn't have gained any advantage at that time, however this misdemeanor has been noted and any future transgression of the rules will incur a severe and disproportionate penalty.

Simply Unbelievable

2009-09-16T14:28:00.002+01:00

As more and more evidence comes out that Renault did indeed ask Piquet to crash, and today's announcement that Briatore and Symonds are leaving the team seems to confirm this, I keep looking for ways in which this might not be true. Honestly, I cannot believe it could happen. My main reason is this: how could they know it would give them the win? Another crash by another car could just as easily turn the event on its head again. Fixing an F1 race is not as easy as fixing a boxing match, say, where all one person has to do is fall over. There are infinite variables that Renault cannot have hoped to control. Perhaps all they were attempting to do was get a 'good result' for Renault headquarters, and lucked out on the win. My suspicions now, though, point towards Alonso. What did he know? After the McLaren scandal, in which it was revealed he colluded in the affair, everyone forgot Alonso's culpability. Will he be exonerated again here? As much as I respect him as a driver, I feel that these two events could point to a certain shadiness in his character.

Thanks for being patient with me!

I haven't seen the whole race yet but I did manage to catch the highlights online. Not too sure what to say really except it all loked a bit crazy with the usual order turned around, Force India's up the front, and doing pretty well even when Raikkonen pusht passed, BMWs up there too. Button and Hamilton way down and crashing out. Then after the event Fisichella moving to Ferrari, what a result for him, the first Italian to drive for Ferrari since err Badoer actually.

Anyway enough ramblings i'm sure you've all waited long enough for these...
However, I'm not sure Jeremy will be happy with the way his mug was handled Fourstar!

I think you know the drill by now... Randomly pick names out of a hat arrange them in a Sutil-able order and let us know what it is before Qualifying starts...

We need a pole sitter and the top eight finishers for the race...

I have to say at this stage it's possible that our championship is currently more exciting even than the real thing!

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 11 Valencia

2009-08-27T19:57:00.001+01:00

All sorts of confusion heading into Valencia, Schumacher, Badoer, Renault, Ferrari, Alonso, but great qualifying from the McLarens to lock out the front row. I know Barrichello was quick and probably could have won on speed alone, but McLaren really didn't do too much to try and hold onto the win, what was going on in the garage?

Good for Brawn to be back on top and especially with Rubens really taking control, great result for him, but where has Button gone? Still in the championship lead, but for how long? He is probably not worrying about Vettel anymore though, if he keeps going through engines at that rate he will be starting from the back at all the last races!

Anyway enough rambling what has been happening here? (Not much actually, very poor!)

Shhh... Don't tell anyone...

2009-08-21T10:07:00.002+01:00

There have long been rumours that Alonso is off to Ferrari, but of course none of it has been confirmed.

However in an interview with Martin Whitmarsh he was asked if he is planning to replace Heikki Kovalainen next season, he replied:

"We all know that Fernando Alonso's move to Ferrari will have a ripple effect on other teams. It opens up the driver market. We are not in talks with any other drivers at the moment, but are obliged to have the most competitive cars and drivers that we can".

Cat. Bag. One is no longer containing the other.

European Pole Poll

2009-08-21T08:19:00.002+01:00

After a break that seems to have gone on forever it finally is the European Grand Prix this weekend and you know what that means?

It means it's time for our predictions. Please pick the pole sitter and the top eight finishers for the race. Please have your predictions in before qualifying starts on Saturday!

Also just for fun you could predict if Luca Badoer will finish the race?

And the arrival day of the Mini Bearded Stew. Today is the scheduled date, based on the update for the championship standings I'd say we might get to Spa before we have our first SofaF1 - the next generation member.

So good luck to everyone, especially Mrs Bearded Stew!

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 10 Hungary

2009-08-09T21:19:00.000+01:00

Another weekend with plenty of drama, Massa's huge crash in qualifying was a bit of a shock, but it looks like he will be ok, hopefully he will be back in the car, but recovery looks like it might be a bit slow. Hamilton taking the win might have been a surprise but as Nick pointed out, it was predicted by a few here at SofaF1, maybe the sign of a rallying McLaren team. The championship is all up in the air again!

Who Wants to Drive for Ferrari?

2009-07-28T12:26:00.002+01:00

Respectfully putting to one side the horror of Massa's accident and doubtful recovery, everyone is now getting interested in the top drive that has suddenly become available. There have been lots of exciting, and improbable, names linked with the position, but who is most likely to take it? Who would you like to take it? Firstly, Ferrari's two test drivers: Gene and Badoer. I think it would be great to give them something back, especially Badoer - the third man behind Schumacher's championships. What about Schumacher himself? If he wanted to come back (and there are suggestions he never actually wanted to leave), could Ferrari say no? Alonso, rumoured to have a contract for 2010 anyway, is the next obvious choice. If Renault remained banned from Valencia it becomes even more inevitable, but the intricacies involved in getting him out of Briatore's car so soon must be difficult (and expensive). It would, however, give Alonso a great head start on getting to know the car for next year. Other interesting options apparently being bandied around the (virtual) paddock are Coulthard and Bourdais. It's difficult to see how Coulthard could betray all his years of Ferrari hatred, though, and Bourdais, despite his credentials, hardly impressed anyone with Toro Rosso. Ferrari could also go with a young Italian driver, such as Bortolotti or Liuzzi, but somehow I see them favouring experience over youth. My personal favourite has got to be Villeneuve. There are bad memories of his come back with Renault, and then Sauber, but just to see another Villeneuve in the red colours of Ferrari would be exciting. As usual, the decision will be made less on driver ability, and more on the politics of a very political grid.

SofaF1 Championship 2009 - Round 9 Germany

2009-07-20T22:09:00.001+01:00

Another race with plenty of drama, Webber winning convincingly at the end but didn't make it easy for himself. Red Bull seem to be maintaining their edge at the moment, do Brawn have any money to catch back up? Looks like its going down the wire. Maiden win for Webber, great result for him, he does seem to have had rather a lot of bad luck, but makes it through this time.

Nobody backed him to take his first win this year though in our championship as far as I could see so no extra points there!

Nick catches up with Igor, the battle is very much on, but I still can't get my head around people who are running off predictions from months ago still get more points than me!!
