Bit tighter the field this time..

Bit tighter the field this time..

Is it purely coincidental that our times are nearly always next to each others?

[John]

Why are those bastard drivers so quick all of a sudden?

[erwin greven]

Good job @XcraigX

[John]

Bah.

Well done Craig.

I think when we make our guesses we reason them out in the same way, that's why! The problem is this year I can't quite figure out how much faster the cars are going to be compared to last year so I always end up with mediocre guesses.

Well done Craig!

WOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!

This weeks winner is XcraigX with a time 0.045 seconds away from Valtteri Bottas time of 1:40.495! It's been a long time since I've won and it feels good. Please forgive my indulgence! I was tempted to change my original guess, but I'm glad I didn't.
