Don't really know how double points work, I'm new to this; but if it could compensate for the penalty I'm getting this round I'd surely use them now.

Warren Hughes · Post by **Warren Hughes** » 16 Apr 2011, 19:52

Dude, I think you get disqualified if you don't get your predictions in before qualifying. And double points wouldn't help to make up for the penalty, they would make it worse!
