    Tough one to call, I've gone for:
    Hamilton
    No BMW podium
    Winning margin of more than 5seconds
    Less than 15 finishers

    And put it in the poll :)

    🤪

    ** Winning Margin - 5 seconds or more - 10 points
    Kovalainen to win.
    No BMW podium.
    Winning margin less than 5 sec.
    15 or more finishers.

    Not gonna wait until after practice. Im gonna back my man now. I think Heikki will spring a surprise here.
    ( Of course if I had waited last time I would not have changed my mind, I would have stuck with massa and I would be joint leader right now:( ).

    Good "head scratcher" bonus questions as usual ODD-JOB. Keep up the great work and thanks for running these comps for a bit of craic.

    Can I suggest a possible future bonus question? Fastest race lap. I'd back Kimi to bag that in Monaco, but I think it's a hard one to call if given a choice of, say, Hamilton, Massa, Kimi, Kubica, other, to choose from. Just an idea.

    yeah , .... fastest lap will feature on next gp comp !!
    could be a difficult one to allocate points to each driver.... Driver of the fastest lap is much more random than race winner , allowing for fuel weights , tyre wear/compound/changes , and track conditions.

    Alonso will do something decent this weekend i fear.

    Also , what should we do with "tax-man" who voted on both Ferrari drivers to win ????? Cheating- cheating.
    Unfortunately I cant stop people casting on 2 drivers to win,......

    Exclude him altogether? or just exclude his driver to win votes ?

    Apologies ODD-JOB,that was a mistake on my part.:o:o Don't drink and vote folks.....it's not big and it's not clever.

    Exclude me completely from this round and I'll start fresh at the next GP. Missed the first few rounds so I'm out of the running at this stage anyway.

    Fair play to ya ODD-JOB for the comps.

    LOL don't I know it.:D Started off looking good and I must say even for a wet race and the few moments of madness, I nearly got my 15+ finishers.The names I called Kimi after that rear end job he did on Suthil. Remote control nearly went through the TV screen.
    Anyway made the race that bit more exciting having a few things riding on it,bring on the next round.
