Guess the Pole 2021 - Austria (Round 9) [+RESULTS]

[XcraigX]

What? Another round at Austria? Didn't we just do that?
Well, that was the Styrian Westernal-ish to be Frank (WTF) Grand Prix GTP round this past weekend. The official Austrian GP takes place this coming weekend at the same RedBull ring track.
So what is different? The Tires, the title of the round, and the starting times as far as I can tell (see below for the actual cut off time).

We saw the Qualifying for the Styrian GP. Adjust appropriately. Please remember that the duplicate guess rule is in effect. Check your times and adjust if you guess the same time as others.

But wait, will the Mongols have influence over this round in Austria? Why YES! The Mongolian Empire influences everything!


May the odds be ever in your favor!!

Welcome to the game!

Welcome to the game!

Thank you I don't expect too much after missing the first few rounds but I do enjoy the challenge of a good prediction game. I'm not saying I will win this one, especially this year, but I'm not usually off the podium when it comes to these things

Not that I'm competitive or anything

[Michael Ferner]

Go for it, Star! There are still something like what, 15 races, so you can still catch'em!

[Picci]

I’m surprised people haven’t opted for a quicker time. They’re using the softer compound this round and they don’t degrade quickly here so the softest tyre shouldn’t hurt towards the end of the lap like say in Abu Dhabi or China. I am actually concerned I may have gone a bit on the slower side!

[John]

Eh I took off 0.2 from last week and called it a day.

[Mawerick]

I actually meant to revise my guess to be a bit quicker, but forgot. Oh well.

I don't know what happened there, I typed in 1:03:957

Beware the colon.

Format should be XX:YY.ZZZ
There is only a colon between the minute and second. There is a period between the second and the fractions of a second.

A rookie error on my part. Thanks for clarifying. I won't make that mistake again hopefully.

[Star]

Way to go @Mikosyko

I'd have been very close but for a damn colon Oh well, maybe next race

[Mawerick]

^While he did very well, I believe I was actually closer to the pole time.

I believe you are right, I saw 1:03:7 and assumed he was closest, but I cleary didn't look at it properly. Apparently I'm destined to make an idiot of myself in this game Congrats @Mawerick

Must do better next round
