What is the SECCS Fantasy F1 Championship?
The FF1 Championship is a Fantasy League based on the current season of the
FIA Formula 1 Championship. FF1 Participants
select drivers on a per-round basis that they feel have a shot at scoring points in
the F1 Driver's Championship, and earn their own fantasy points if their picked drivers
succeed.
The goal of the league is to add an additional element of competition to the F1 season
with a minimal effort by the participants, thus making each round more exciting and
harder to miss watching!
The SECCS FF1 system is very simple compared to many other fantasy leagues, and allows
anyone with even a passing interest to learn all they need to know about F1 to do well
in the league.
What are the rules?
- Each participant selects 8 drivers per Grand Prix round
- Based on official F1 results, if a participant's picked drivers score World
Championship points, then the participant scores the same number of fantasy
points
- A participant may not pick a driver more than 10 times during the season
- A participant may not pick a driver more than once per round
- Picks must be submitted for a round prior to the scheduled start of qualifying
for that round
- In the case of a points tie, the participant that picked the most race winners
(then runner ups, then 3rds, etc) will be considered the victor. If there is still
a tie after that, then the prize will be split equally
- Entry fees must be submitted before a participant is eligible to score points
- The league adminstrators reserve all rights to manipulate the rules as necessary
in the intrest of fair competition

How do I make my picks?
Once your account is registered, you will need to login with your username and password.
After logging in, you can get to your account details by clicking on the 'My Picks' link on the
main menu.
The user details page lists all of your picks for the season, as well as pick counts, and
fantasy points scored. You may use the form at the top of the page to edit picks for rounds
that have not started. Remember that picks are not in any order, as long as any of your picks
score in the points you'll get those points for yourself.
Note that once qualifying starts for a round, you will be locked out from making any changes
to your picks for that round. Keep an eye on the deadlines for the rounds, or make sure you
pre-pick some baseline drivers ahead of time in case you're caught out when qualifying starts.
To keep on top of the season, add your email address to your user details and the website will
send you a reminder email 24-hours before picks are due, as well as when rounds go live and when
season standings are updated.
