It was looking good for Lewis Hamilton heading into qualifying and 92% of you predicted him to take pole position.
However a series of mistakes left him tenth on the grid and left the way clear for Nico Rosberg to take victory – something only 11% of you were expecting.
The result was a low-scoring round: championship leader @Fishongazza scored just three out of a potential fifty points, and saw their lead trimmed to just four points.
The highest score anyone managed was just 19, shared by a trio of players. @IanBond001 got closest to the pole position time and claimed the first place prize while @faiz30 took the runners-up award. It’s a case of ‘better luck next time’ for @AyrtonSenna26, who just missed out on a prize this week.

Hi Keith,
You appear to have missed counting the 2 points for ROS on pole. e.g. For faiz30 you’ve only given 19 points but from their predictions should have been 21:
faiz30 predictions: Pole:ROS, 1st:ROS, 2nd:VET, 3rd:PER, 4th:HAM, 5th:ALO
Pole=2pts, 4 in top 5=5pts, 3 in correct places=14pts: Total=21pts
(Have already sent this thru the “Contact” channel a couple of days ago but haven’t heard back, so am posting here in case accidentally overlooked there. Also I don’t care if this comment doesn’t get shown to anyone in the “Comments” but please fix the points or let me know what’s wrong with my calcs. JF)
