Predicament Predictions - 2014 Chinese Grand Prix

[TomWazzleshaw]

I honestly have no idea how this could have happened. Therefore, Pasta's getting a three point penalty for daring to suggest that our hero MaxiTaxi Chilton is in any way, shape, or form a deadbeat.

IIDOTR: Marie Dorin-Habert, making a surprise appearance on TV cameras. She's fit.

I wonder if you'd put that if I told you she's 5 months pregnant

What HAVE you been up to, Freezy? You sly dog, you...

[Jocke1]

Marie Dorin-Habert

I'm off to google to see who the heck this is --------->

According to pasta_maldonado "she's fit"
Er.

So she's a biathlon athlete? Alright.
I used to watch that sport quite a bit back when Magdalena Forsberg dominated, when she retired I lost interest.
Magdalena will always be the greatest in my eyes. And she was marriage material to boot .

[go_Rubens]

This seems to have been a crap round for me. Every prediction I made involving a Mercedes driver had to be switched with his teammate to be right. Chances are I might lose my high place in the standings if form like this continues.

Really? Only discovered the sport in 2011 but it's helped me become less obsessive with F1 in recent years.

The great thing about the sport (and all wintersports in fact) is you can actually show your personality away from corporate measures like in F1. Still better than Curling

I like curling.

I only said that to make you feel a negative emotion for a fraction of a second, but it's coincidentally true.

Pasta's Predictions:

Now it's time for a little game I've thought up - Predictions in the style of other F1R users. I'll predict in the next section in the style of another user. For this round, that user is Freeze-O-Kimi!

The judgement on her attractiveness was from Freezy Kimi's perspective, not from mine

It's her personality not her attractiveness that makes her my number 1

And speaking of which It's time I reviewed your little prediction of my style

Pole: MERCEDESLOL (should be Marie Dorin-Habert)

Hmm Marie has never started from a biathlon Pole Position before (First row of 10 with bib 1). I still wait for that day. 0 points

Fastest Lap: Rosberg (should be Marie Dorin-Habert)

The biathlon equivalent would be the fastest ski time of the race. Marie has 1 in her career (Then again the French aren't renowned for great skiing especially their women's team) I'll be generous and give 1 point

First Retirement: Vergne (should be Marie Dorin-Habert)

No No No if Marie ever retired from a race I'd be so angry and upset. You can retire from a race if you can't be arsed anymore after a bad day or fall ill. For that it's a -1 for you

ROTR: Curling

Right on. How the other Brits on this forum can even consider watching Curling I don't know. It's tedious, slow and nauseating. Outside the Olympics and World Championships I would not watch it. For being spot on I'm giving this one 5 Points

IIDOTR: Marie Dorin-Habert, making a surprise appearance on TV cameras. She's fit.

This is where you undid it all from a personal view. Here you've just basically assumed I've chose Marie as a number 1 down the dr-baker route but no. I've seen some of Marie's interviews and her personality comes out much better than any of the F1 drivers (not their fault of course) and that's why she's my number 1 of any girl. For not using your brain it's a -3

DBTMOTR: Chilton (probably watched too much curling)

Quite how he hasn't won one yet is testament to his talent. Since it's unlikely he'll get it for this race we'll leave it at 0 Points

MLP: Kvyat

Got a point and beat Magnussen. I'll get the maximum points for MLP

DNQ: Probability of me having a banana milkshake right now (100%)

I'll give you kudos for knowing my favorite drink. Just the mention of it makes me want one. 3 Points

Apart from the IIDOTR it wasn't a half bad post 5/10

[dr-baker]

Oh yeah???

Now don't get any ideas baker the answer is still no
