My prediction of Button for pole position paid off but my podium – Vettel, Alonso and Hamilton – earned me nothing. I scored ten points.
Next time we’ll be starting the F1 Fanatic Predictions Championship with prizes to be won. Keep an eye out for the predictions post on the Friday of the Chinese Grand Prix weekend!

Keith, do you do all this by hand? If so fantastic effort! I have a fantasy sports engine for this kind of stuff, give me a shout if you fancy avoiding the leg work.

If you do count this by hand, I think you should write into the rules that participants who do not submit their predictions in the correct format be excluded from the contest.

Nope, like I said the championship starts at the next race. You’re probably the off-season champion though…
