| Welcome to the 2009 Fantasy F1 Season! |

It was a tight finish to this year's fantasy championship season!
By scoring 16 points in the final round, lisaab fends off some threatening competition from MattR who suffers a heart-breaker when his Hamilton pick went from a season winning call to only 5 points on the round when the McLaren failed to finish. MattR's terrible luck allows lisaab holds on to win her second consecutive FF1 championship.
Also scoring 16 points was curley due to the excellent decision to select newbie Toyota driver Kobayashi, giving him a bump from 3rd overall into 2nd. Winning the final round with 24 points, sperry is able to move up from 4th to 3rd and take the final paying spot.
Hurt by Hamilton's retirement, MattR drops two spots to 4th overall. zpeed gains two spots in the last round to finish 5th. skimonkey and Marc&Em both have good rounds allowing them to move up after the final round.
Based on the finishing results and number of competitors, here's the championship payout:
1st place, 50% payout: lisaab $140
2nd place, 30% payout: curley $84
3rd place, 20% payout: sperry $56
Congratulations to the winners, and a big thanks to everyone for an exciting season! It was close at the top with only 25 points covering the top 5 competitors.
Keep an eye on the crazy off-season F1 happenings, as next season looks to be another mixed bag of rules changes, driver changes, new teams, and new tracks. We hope everyone returns for next year's Fantasy F1 league! |

| My strategy through the end of the year was to save Mclaren picks, as they improved, I was banking on him for the finale. Unreal...That, and the fact that 4 of my picks in Brazil crashed together in the opening laps... |

Matt, when Lisa and I watched qualifying and saw how good Hamilton was, we both figured you had the season locked up. That's some crappy luck man.
And curley, you got me by picking Kobayashi. Nice work. |
