2022 Australian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
2022 Australian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
And so we're back, ladies and gentlemen, to the site of the Australian Grand Prix. We haven't had one of these in two years, and the last time it was technically the championship deciding round (of one) Let's hope that round 3 of this season is a little more successful logistics-wise than that one was. That goes for our predictors just as much as it does for the drivers. By now you should have a basic understanding of who's fast and who's slow. Show us how much you know! Get predicting. Here is your blank slate:

Anyone who has any questions, just ask here or send me a DM. All the rules are in the Bahrain Grand Prix thread. As always, the player with the funniest alternative race title gets a bonus point.
For me, I will guess something outrageous. I think it is finally time for Carlos Sainz to win a race:
1. Carlos Sainz Jr.
2. Max Verstappen
3. Sergio Pérez
4. Charles Leclerc
5. Lewis Hamilton
6. Fernando Alonso
7. Valtteri Bottas
8. Pierre Gasly
9. Lance Stroll
10. Sebastian Vettel
Pole: Charles Leclerc
Fastest lap: Charles Leclerc
First retirement: Nicholas Latifi
ROTR: Ferrari Strategy reawakening (20 second stationary time for Leclerc due to a mechanic putting his shoes on )
IIDOTR: Sergio Pérez (amazing driving to hold off the Ferrari, being the perfect wingman to his teammate)
DBTMOTR: George Russell
LP: Mick Schumacher (has an accident / crap pitstop and spends the whole second half tumbling around at the back)
HFB: 1 lap
Good luck everyone! The deadline is the end of FP3 if you don't want to incur penalties

Re: 2022 Australian Grand Prix - Predicament Predictions!
A bit behind with getting these results up, but here we are! Hermann95 wins the race with a clear gap to their opponents. Interestingly now in retrospect, it's fun to see how nobody guessed the McLarens or Russell would do well, and especially not Ricciardo! As a result of Verstappen's retirement, it was a low-scoring round, as nobody got more than one person in the correct place on the podium. Therefore, Hermann95 wins with a loadd of people in second place.
For our championship it means that Aerond's run of good results continues and indeed pushes him into the outright lead of the championship. Hermann95's win puts him into the runner-up spot, while IceG must be applauded for managing to score three 14 point rounds in a row!
