Quote from Dajmin :

Speaking of which, are there any other fantasy leagues like this one that we could start up after the F1 season is over? I'd really like to continue this if we could.

I'm guessing there really isn't any motorsport related one although I haven't even looked. I'd be interested as well

The world needs more motorsports that continue through winter

What about that batracer thing?

I guess we could all place bets on how many wheels Tristan will have on his wagon the next time he hits the track

Quote from HVS5b :

What about that batracer thing?

I have a BATracer account but it's all internal, it doesn't rely on real races. It can be good fun if you're on a good team but a lot of the time it can end up feeling like a grind.

I'd prefer something more in a fantasy league style, but I'd join a LFS BAT team

Quote from Mustafur :

Hot buys:
STR
Vettel

WOW - just looked at my team atm:

Vettel
Bourdais
Renault
STR
Mobil 1 (McL)

When is the site usually updated ?

Probably during the next 12 hours, I'd guess. Prolly because you need to give some time for fia to adjust things a bit

(anyone here who did not have Vettel?)

I added him on a whim and I'm glad I did. Turns out my last minute Ferrari switches were a pretty good idea too. I'm going to miss this when the season's over

Oh dear, that's a lot of points.

Points for Italy are in now.

I didn't gain a place but I am only 100 points behind the Top10 now.

And we improved our lead in the subleague competition.

Which team are you?

Anyone got any bets? Just got one right.

Quote from zeugnimod :

Souza racing. :]

Souza racing. :]

Oh, I usually don't watch that far back.
But you have the 7th most points overall for Italy, grats.

I got all 3 questions and Kubica in 3rd right.

I blame my lack of information. Only joined on France.

We're doing pretty well on the subleague competition!

Bah, no places gained - obviously everyone and their mother had Vettel and Ferrari that race At least I have a good starting spot (team and money) to work on the next one.

And yes, I'm liking that subleague page.

Still no ideas for a winter racing fantasy league yet? Anybody?

No ideas here, but I'd definitely be interested in joining if someone can find one.

Maybe we can do another Batracer season?

Im anoyed, not at the fact i didn' get much points becuase i got alot(780+) but at the fact i was going to choose Vettel over kimi.

still when your team looks like this:
Massa
Kimi
STR (chassis, engine, fuel)

It doesn't matter if its wet or dry you will get over 700 points.

I have alot of money now, I might switch to Vettel over kimi In Singapore if its wet and change Massa to Hamilton with Mclaren Fuel.

I love how im loaded now.

Hmm... I'd really need a miracle to get back into the top 5 again... Buying kimi was so defenately wrong decision

Don't have too much money either. Need to make wise decisions instead of spending like others

EDIT: and just to remind you all, there is the subleague competition and we are leading it at the moment! The prize for the sub league comp is 6 F1 caps which will go to the top 6 players of our league

Really? Cool.

I better hold onto my 4th then!

But alas, another budget dilemma for me... shall I:

• downgrade fuel from Elf to Castrol and replace Bourdais with Webber, or
  
• upgrade engine from Ferrari to BMW, or
  
• maintain status quo?
  

Sometimes, a crystal ball would be so useful.

imo Ferrari is way underpriced, but in wet its a gamble.

In dry theres no question about it though.

Wow, i thought i didn't do so well, what with the Fezza's and he Macca's being so crap, and with Bourdais stalling on the grid. But i managed to move up 3 places to 6th. I'm still skint though, so i don't expect to be in that position for too long.

Anyway, a winter fantasy league ? The problem is there ain't that many global winter events. Suppose there's the Champions league or the Rugby season (SIx Nations). But that's gonna kinda exclude anyone outside of Europe. Is there a fantasy league for skiing or golf, they'll be fun

Is there even a motorsport that runs over christmas?

I dunno know really... all i can think of are those NHL manager games. But it would be a lot more work compared to this one as they play quite a bit more games than F1 have race events... But NHL is not really motorsport and I'd guess it would be harder to get anough people involved to make it interesting.

Open for ideas though

I wasn't sure if there was maybe some kind of winter rally, but then I guess even if there was the odds of a fantasy league running is fairly small. Compared to F1 or BTCC/WTCC it's a bit of a niche.

Hell, I'd even settle for karting or indoor arena motorsports. Maybe even NASCAR...
