It’s all change in the Predictions Championship this weekend as Formula 1 holds its first sprint qualifying event.

Players have until the start of qualifying – which is now on Friday – to submit their entries.

Will Lewis Hamilton strike back against the Red Bull onslaught on home ground? Or will their rivals claim a sixth win in a row? It’s time to make your predictions.

We have a copy of the official Formula 1 game to be won every grand prix weekend this year. The RaceFans F1 Predictions Championship is free to enter. You will need a RaceFans account to place so sign up here if you haven’t got one.

Enter your predictions for each race using the form below, and scroll down for more information on the prizes and the rules.

Updated rules for Sprint Qualifying

As announced last month, the rules have been revised to take into account the changes arising from the new Sprint Qualifying format.

The deadline for entries will remain the start of qualifying. Therefore at rounds where Sprint Qualifying races are held, this will fall on a Friday instead of a Saturday. Players will be invited to predict who will take pole position for the first race of the weekend based on the results of qualifying, their qualifying lap time, and the top five finishers in the grand prix.

The revised rules are as follows:

Points are awarded for:
3a. Correctly naming the pole winner for the Sprint Qualifying race if one is held, or the grand prix if no Sprint Qualifying race is held: 2 points
b. Correctly naming one/two/three/four/five driver/s who finish in the top five of the grand prix: 1/2/3/5/8 points
c. Correctly predicting where one/two/three/four/five driver/s finish in the grand prix: 2/6/14/24/40 points

4. The results will be take from the appropriate final classification documents for each round as issued by the FIA.

6. In the event of a tie on points the winner will be determined by who is closest to predicting the pole position lap time set in qualifying correctly. If that fails to produce a winner the editor will choose a means of deciding who has won.

Note there is no change in how players submit their predictions for rounds which do not include Sprint races.

    I think for the first time in 3-4 years I’m doing these predictions, i made the best prediction overall. And all this thanks to Sainz who managed to beat Perez for 0.7 tenths in the end😂

  2. I wonder how many people are going to miss it due to the earlier deadline.
