Bottom post of the previous page:

Oh dear, a crisis about a possible infringement of the sporting regulations.

This is now an official F1 event.

Don’t worry @Mawerick you can appeal and throw the championship in doubt later.

No, unfortunately. It just shows the current page. Although I did realise that my forum clock settings were off by one hour, so I'm fairly certain I last edited my guess about 50 mins before FP1 started.

There's no way to prove that though, so I think it's best to disqualify me.

This week's winner is @Everso Biggyballies with a time 1.786 seconds away from Kevin Magnussen's pole time of 1:11.674. Yes, you read that right, Kmag is now an F1 Pole sitter! Great job!

This week, the potential winner ran afoul of Rule 3 of the GTP rules. As a reminder to everyone: Do not edit your entry if it is past the deadline! There is no way to trace back to figure out your original post or your original entry time. I feel bad, but I have to enforce the rules.

With that said, here are the full results:
Image

====================================
In the Accuracy Standings, Star leads with very little chance of being overtaken prior to dropping any rounds.

Image

I promised the best 21 rounds of 22 (used to be 22 rounds of 23 before Russia/China was canceled). So, I will have to recalculate the Accuracy after the final round just to be sure. Stay tuned for the announcement of the winner!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In the Points Championship, :flag: :trophy: Star is now officially the 2022 GTP Points Champion!! :trophy: :flag:
With a 30-point lead, there is no one that can catch her in the last round.

Image


Just a reminder that the final round at Abu Dhabi is next week. Look for the new thread right now and make your guess.

Thanks Craig I dont think I have ever won a round before. A bit of a shame to win it under a little controversy and Maw's misfortune, so I will just have to do it again next week . :fingers: (Fat chance)

Also Big Congrats to @Star for her domination and win of the overall comp. Well done Gill.

Awww thanks guys. I did warn you I am competitive when it comes to these things, I just can't help myself. :blush:

It is a great game and I have thoroughly enjoyed playing it. Well, I would say that as the winner wouldn't I? :haha:

Good luck to all for the last race to see who is on the podium with me :cool: :thumbsup:
