The one who DNQs will be given a bonus 10 deatbeatism points. A similar philosophy applies in the race where someone gets a bonus 10 deadbeatism points for every lap they finish behind their teammate.

Waris wrote:Let's see... I wonder if you get points when you predict a non-qualifier correctly, but there are others? (Or if you predict one correctly and another wrongly?)

You only get points for every one you predict correctly (e.g I predicted last race their D'Amboriso and Karthikeyan wouldn't qualify. I got one point because Karthikeyan didn't qualify)
