2019 Singapore Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!

[Rob Dylan]

It's the Singapore Sling, except without the sling. Here we are, back in glorious night-time madness on the streetz. With only three points left before getting a race ban, Vettel enters the grand prix two years to the day since he fluffed up everything, took out his teammate and gifted Hamilton a race win and a championship. No pressure! Will the four-time champion fluff it up yet again, or will he be redeemed? Get your predictions in by the end of FP3.


Here's your blank slate:

There's always a point for the funniest alternative race title you guys can come up with. The candidates for Minor League Premiership are: Alexander Albon; Antonio Giovinazzi; Lando Norris; George Russell. And you are always welcome to activate double points for one round only.

Consistently scoring high since their return in Austria, it was time for Pacific 777 to claim their first victory of the season here in Singapore! Though far down in the standings, they have been steadily climbing the points order. The championship leader dr-baker was behind his rivals on points until a last-minute correct ROTR prediction brought him on par with his two closest rivals RAK and Fetzie. As a result, the points gap remains identical over the top three since Italy, whilst mario was the only contender at the very front to have a relatively disappointing race, scoring a few points down on the average. Here are the results:

Results
1. Pacific 777 15
2. Aguvazk 14
3. RAK 12
- dr-baker 12
- Fetzie 12
6. ElBerto 11
- You-Gee-Eee-Day 11
8. tommykl 10*
9. Rob Dylan 9
- yannicksamlad 9

And so without further ado, we go to our standings. As said, dr-baker still holds a sizeable chunk of a lead, and seems to be edging ever closer to that 2019 Predicament Predictions trophy. Can anything stop him!? Find out in Sochi. Here are the standings with six races remaining:
