by Jody Scheckter at 5:15 pm, Sep 7 Max Verstappen had an historically fast weekend in Monza by grabbing pole with the fastest ever F1 average lap speed, and then converting that into the fastest ever F1 race win.

The Dutchman had to wait four months since his last victory, also in Italy at Imola, with a podium result that matched that race, with Lando Norris taking second and Oscar Piastri third.

Breaking out of a previously poor run of results, G Bartoledo is the FF1 round winner, lightsOUT takes second, and curley finishes third on the day.

Zan4774 continues as the overall leader despite a low score this week, Suyash just manages to retain second, not helped by an even lower round score that is dropped, but lightsOUT continues to progress upward, jumping from sixth to third.

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix is in a couple of weeks, and McLaren will have an opportunity to clinch the constructor's championship with seven races to spare, but Red Bull have shown they still have a car and driver combination that can take the battle to the British team, so it will be interesting to see how that pans out as we head into the final third of the season.

by 1 Max V at 8:12 am, Sep 1 Du du du du! Max Verstappen!

by Jody Scheckter at 11:46 pm, Aug 31 After a four week break, F1 returned to action at the Dutch Grand Prix, and Oscar Piastri gave McLaren their fifth straight win, as he benefited from his teammate's misfortune, when Lando Norris suffered a power unit failure with just seven laps remaining, thus extending Piastri's championship lead over his main rival.

Max Verstappen was also the beneficiary, elevating to second at his home race. While arguably this season's most impressive rookie, Isaak Hadjar, converted his 4th on the grid qualifying position into a well deserved podium finish.

As an indicator of just how difficult it is getting to make picks, only two of you picked the winner this round, and six of you just decided to take a drop. The two? lightsOUT who is the round winner, and 1 Max V who comes second. Unsurprisingly, they end with a sizeable cushion over Croken in third.

Zan4774 continues to sit atop the overall standings, much aided by Hadjar's and Alex Albon's preformance on the day. Suyash only slightly closes the gap in second, and Lewis H makes a first appearance in the top three.

We head next to Monza where Norris will be hoping to bounce back from his disappointment. As will second place team Ferrari, after both cars failed to finish in Holland, with Mercedes halving their deficit to the Scuderia in Zandvoort

by Jody Scheckter at 5:01 pm, Aug 3 A poor start by Lando Norris on the first lap forced a strategic re-think that ultimately led to victory at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Finding himself fourth, the team decided to switch to a one-stop strategy, and Norris did just enough to hold of Oscar Piastri at the Hungaroring - a track notoriously difficult to pass on.

George Russell's Mercedes benefited from cooler than usual conditions to take third.

The results mean that the McLaren drivers will take a summer break separated by only nine points.

Pastor Maldonado and lightsOUT share the round win on a day when points were hard to come by. Arun and David D tied for third.

Overall Zan4774 remains far ahead in first, with Suyash in second and RobM in third.

We're now off for four week, reconvening at Zanvoort at the end of the month.

by Jody Scheckter at 8:52 pm, Jul 27 After a Sprint Race that provided the template to victory with Max Verstappen the beneficiary at Oscar Piastri expense, the Aussie knew that if he was going to win the Belgian Grand Prix it was going to require a similar first lap pass on the Kemmel Straight at his teammate's expense, and despite a rolling restart due to wet conditions, he made it happen.

Lando Norris was never able to recover and had to settle for second, while Charles Leclerc was able to hold of Verstappen for the entire race to take third.

The round's spoils were shared by Chuck Calrissian, EL SLATSO, Lewis H, Suyash and TheRealDP, not atypical for a Sprint Race weekend.

Zan4774 stays in first overall, but Suyash almost halves the gap to second by picking up 82 points on the leader in one fell swoop. Meanwhile RobM, a familiar presence near the top of the standings in 2024, finds himself in third for the first time this year.

F1 will be in Hungary next week before the August break.

by Jody Scheckter at 2:50 pm, Jul 6 Lando Norris was the beneficiary of a safety car violation penalty against Oscar Piastri, to win a chaotic British Grand Prix by six seconds over his teammate. The on again, off again, rainy conditions at Silverstone made for multiple shunts, spins, safety car periods and retirements. Those that got the pit calls right, and managed to keep their car on the track were rewarded, none more so than Nico Hulkenberg who earned his first ever podium finish after 14 years of trying and starting 19th on the grid. Hulkenberg's form over the last four races has been good enough for points finishes in all of them, and 2 more points than the reigning World Champion Max Verstappen, as Red Bull once again suffered a miserable result.

Croken is this week's clear winner, having picked Hulkenberg and Lance Stroll who finished in an unexpected seventh place. Zan4774 continued to pick the big hitters and despite the shake ups on track, still tallied up a good total for second, while sperry was also rewarded for his Hulkenberg pick to come third.

The second of four dropped rounds having been applied, Zan4774 now has a 167 point lead in the overall standings, but with half of the season still to come, and having maxed out on picks for some of the top drivers, will it be enough? Kimi Haikunen has now jumped into second, as Suyash drops to third.

F1 takes a few weeks off before returning for the Belgian Grand Prix. As a reminder, Spa will also play host to the third Sprint Race of the season.

by Jody Scheckter at 6:46 pm, Jun 29 Lando Norris and McLaren bounced back from the disappointment of Canada, for his third victory of the season, with Oscar Piastri giving McLaren its fourth 1-2 finish of 2025. The two drivers battled hard but ultimately but Piastri could make his one pass stick, and the two far outclassed all other comers in Austria, with Ferrari having to settle for a distant third with Charles Leclerc. This was also a bad day for Red Bull at their home race, with Max Verstappen being knocked out on the first lap by Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli, while Yuki Tsunoda was last of the finishers and never looked capable of a charge through the back markers.

Kimi Haikunen once again wins the round, and his recent charge up the standings has taken him from last to third in just five races! RobM takes second and Pastor Maldonado comes third.

Zan4774 continues to be pedal to the metal and is now 134 points ahead of Suyash, who opted to take a drop on the day, and who manages to hold off Kimi Haikunen for the moment.

We head to Silverstone next weekend where McLaren will again be expected to dominate, although Mercedes will be hoping for cooler weather, which might perhaps give George Russell a better shot for a podium finish.

by Jody Scheckter at 10:00 pm, Jun 15 George Russell converted his pole position into a victory at the Canadian Grand Prix, holding off Max Verstappen who came second. Mercedes had a good day, with rookie Kimi Antonelli picking up his first F1 podium with a well deserved third. The race ended after a safety car period as a result of a clash between McLaren drivers in fourth and fifth four laps from the end, with Lando Norris taking himself out trying to squeeze past Oscar Piastri. Time will tell if the failed overtake move will have a decisive effect on the overall standings.

lightsOut and Zan4774 share the round win, and RobM is close behind for third. The result extends Zan4774's lead to 88 points over Suyash in the overall standings, while MarkMahkez remains in third.

The Austrian Grand Prix is in two weeks time, the first of six races to be held in Europe during the summer. Mercedes will be hoping this result can be replicated, while McLaren will be itching to rediscover their dominant form.

by Jody Scheckter at 7:37 pm, Jun 1 Oscar Piastri won his fifth race of the season, as McLaren made it a 1-2 finish with Lando Norris in second, holding off a serious charge by Max Verstappen until a safety car reset the race, and put the Red Bull in jeopardy, with only new hard tires to choose from while the rest of the field were on softs. That's when Verstappen's day turned sour, with incidents with Charles Leclerc, who ended up third, and George Russell, the latter of which resulted in a damaging 10 second penalty that dropped Vestappen 6 places to tenth.

Kimi Haikunen once again wins a round, and jumps into the top ten. RobM and Zan4774 share second. This pushes out Zan4774's overall lead to 45 points, while Suyash remains in second, and MahkMahkez moves up a spot into third.

The next race will be in Canada in two weeks.

by Jody Scheckter at 11:25 am, May 26 Lando Norris produced the fastest ever qualifying lap at Monaco, and it provided him with the necessary edge to lead the race into the first corner, and subsequently win the Monaco Grand Prix. That's been the story for many races in the Principality, and the new two-stop rule introduced to spice things up didn't, as there were no legal on-track passes, and the top four qualifiers ended the race in the same positions they started in, with Charles Leclerc and Oscar Piastri filling out the podium.

EL SLATSO, G Bartoledo and Jellybeanz share the round win, while the overall standings have tightened up because Zan4774 skipped this round, but maintains the lead over Suyash, with EL SLATSO jumping four positions into third.

We head to Barcelona next weekend for the Spanish Grand Prix, and the last of this series of back-to-back-to-back races.

by 1 Max V at 4:08 pm, May 25 Monaco is a glorified kart track.

by RobM at 11:29 am, May 25 Breaking news: The Monaco GP still sucks.

by Jody Scheckter at 4:54 pm, May 18 Max Verstappen turned a bold late breaking overtake at the start of the race into a decisive move, and benefited from tire strategies and safety car periods to build a lead that could not be overcome to win the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix for the fourth consecutive time.

Oscar Piastri wasn't so lucky, as a decision to switch to hards forced him to battle for positions, and Lando Norris also pitted one lap before a virtual safety car was deployed. Race circumstances during a full safety car offered Norris a chance to change tires, which allowed him to pass his teammate for second, as Piasti had to settle for third.

Kimi Haikunen is a clear winner this round, boosting his overall position off the bottom, and easily surpassing Suyash who once again takes second, while Zan4774 comes third.

Zan4774 maintains a commanding lead in the overall standings, with Suyash back in in second, a significant margin ahead of TheRealDP, who drops to third.

The next race is the Monaco Grand Prix next weekend, and this year's race will include a mandatory two pit stops, with a mind to providing more opportunities for position changes. We'll see if that makes a difference at a circuit where it is notoriously difficult to overtake.

by Jody Scheckter at 12:37 am, May 7 Breaking News: Franco Colapinto will replace Jack Doohan at Alpine for at least the next five races. Never a dull day in F1.

by Jody Scheckter at 8:41 pm, May 4 No change.

edited by Jody Scheckter at 5:06 pm, May 4 Will keep an eye out on the results that are pending an investigation into whether George Russell had a yellow flag violation, although most of you picked both Russell and Verstappen, so it won't change too much here.

by Jody Scheckter at 5:02 pm, May 4 Oscar Piastri's great start to the 2025 season continued in Miami, as the Aussie claimed his third win in a row, yet again beating his more experienced teammate Lando Norris, who had bested him the day before in the sprint race. On the weekend, McLaren dominated and took maximum points, and the Woking-based organization is enjoying success that the team hasn't had in a long time.

Meanwhile, George Russell came a distant third to give Mercedes a good haul of points for the weekend when combined with Kimi Antonelli's results.

David D wins the round on tie-breakers, with Suyash and TheRealDP sharing second.

The season's first drop has been applied and that gives us a more level view of the overall standings, with Zan4774 maintaining a comfortable lead over TheRealDP, who moves into second, and Suyash who drops to third.

F1 next travels to Europe for back to back to back races at Imola, Monaco and Barcelona starting two weekends from now.

by Suyash at 2:05 pm, May 3 Damn, I saw Charles crashing on recon lap and swapped him for Lewis. Now, Lewis is out in Q2. 😓

by Jody Scheckter at 5:07 pm, Apr 20 Oscar Piastri is on a roll that's taken him to the top of the F1 standings after winning his third race of the season at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, surpassing Max Verstappen who started from pole but had to settle for second. Charles Leclerc gave Ferrari their first podium of the year by finishing third.

Zan4774 is also on a roll, topping the scoring, with maximum points, for the third round in a row. MahkMahkez comes second and Jellybeanz ekes out third. Zan4774 jumps to first overall, with Suyash in second and MahkMahkez in third.

The next race is in a couple of weekends when the F1 circus reconvenes in Miami for Round 6 and the second Sprint Race of the season.

by Jody Scheckter at 12:37 am, Apr 14 Oscar Piastri once again turned a pole position into a comfortable victory in Bahrain.

Unlike in Japan, this race had considerable intrigue as tire strategies differed across drivers, and overtaking was frequent. It also helped that there was a safety car period that tightened up the field with over twenty laps to go. George Russell kept up his good season start by holding off Lando Norris for second, with the latter doing well to improve on a poor grid position.

curley, G Bartoledo, RobM, Suyash and Zan4774 share the round win.

Meanwhile, G Bartoledo, Suyash and Zan4774 top the standings, separated by only two points.

We stay in the Middle East with the Saudi Grand Prix next weekend.

edited by Jody Scheckter at 10:38 pm, Apr 6 As he usually does, Max Verstappen made his first pole since Austria last year count and held off the McLarens of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at what was, unfortunately, a mostly processional Japanese Grand Prix. Despite the gaps being within two seconds for much of the race, that may just as well have been twenty, as the challengers never even got close enough to attempt an on-track pass. The top 11 in the race were the same top 11 on the grid, with only Lewis Hamilton able to swap positions with rookie Isack Hadjar. Even the weather dampened any chance of off track fireworks that might have spiced things up.

Zan4774 wins the round, followed by G Bartoledo and Jellybeanz.

Overall, EL SLATSO retains top position, with G Bartoledo and MahkMahkez leading a pack of chasers, only separated by the first tie-breaker.

Next weekend, the F1 circus heads to the Middle East and Bahrain, for the first of two races.

by Jody Scheckter at 12:05 am, Mar 28 Yup. The drivers have been switched.

by 1 Max V at 4:05 pm, Mar 26 Helmut Marko laid down the LAW(son).

by RobM at 6:20 pm, Mar 23 Pierre Gasly, Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton have been disqualified from the Chinese Grand Prix

Gasly and Leclerc's cars were found to be underweight, while Hamilton's car was deemed to have excessive skid wear.

by Jody Scheckter at 3:46 pm, Mar 23 Oscar Piastri had his best ever F1 weekend, taking second in the Sprint Race, and following that up with his career first pole position and an uncomplicated Chinese Grand Prix victory. Lando Norris gave McLaren a 1-2 result, and he stays atop the driver's standings. Once again George Russell rounded out the podium.

The weekend began well for Ferrari, with Lewis Hamilton surprising with a Sprint Race pole and win, but things turned sour as the Ferrari's finished fifth and sixth in the Grand Prix, only for both cars to be disqualified after the race for infractions: Leclerc's car for being underweight, and Hamilton's for an overworn skid plate. Pierre Gasly's car was also disqualified for being below the minimum weight limit. As a result both Haas and Williams earned good constructor's championship points as their driver's moved up in the final race results.

Thirteen FF1 players tied for top points in the round, but many will rue earning less points than could have been expected without the disqualifications.

EL SLATSO stays in front in the overall standings, TheRealDP remains 10 points back, and Suyash moves up to third.

We have a couple of weeks until the next race at Suzuka, and will be paying attention to the possibility that Red Bull might drop a struggling Liam Lawson, perhaps in a swap with RB's Yuki Tsunoda. The team cannot afford to have only one driver scoring points each round, and the Kiwi's form has been woeful.

Reminder: Same as last season, we're going with 6 picks per round, a maximum of 10 picks per driver, and 4 drops for the rules (so there is still time to sign up for this season!) And we're sticking with the deadlines before Qualifying for a conventional weekend, and before the Sprint for a sprint weekend.

by sperry at 11:28 am, Mar 21 I think everyone that sat out Round 1 made the right choice. I burned a Lando pick for all of 29 points.

by sperry at 11:27 am, Mar 21 No problem @Bob Danger!

There's a PayPal button that sends the payment from the registration page, but if you get interrupted, it's probably not obvious that you can go back to the page and still hit the button. Either way, the admin email is now added to the PayPal account, so it will work going forward, it just won't auto-activate your account for paying without using the built-in form... but that's just a quick click. NBD!

by Jody Scheckter at 11:27 am, Mar 16 Note: Antonelli was originally docked 5 seconds, but that penalty was reversed and he was awarded 4th after the race.

edited by Jody Scheckter at 11:40 am, Mar 16 Back as the season opener for the first time since 2019, the Australian Grand Prix served up a spicy race as slick conditions caused many cars to spin off, bringing out multiple safety cars, including a prolonged period to start the race. Unlike in 2024, when there were no driver changes to start the year, only two teams lined up with the same two drivers, with six rookies joining the mix. Unfortunately, four of those rookies ended up spinning into barriers.

Despite all the mayhem (although it must be pointed out that there were no collisions between cars), Lando Norris managed the tricky conditions and held off Max Verstappen for an impressive opening victory. George Russell came third. As a team, McLaren announced themselves as the early season favorites, with Oscar Piastri running strong in second until he too slid off the track, and had to settle for ninth.

EL SLATSO wins the round, with lightsOUT and TheRealDP sharing second. As in previous years, a number of FF1 participants decided to sit this race out, and the unpredictable weather may have further justified doing so, but for those that earned points there's always that good feeling that comes for being amongst the leaders - at least for a few races!

The season quickly moves on to China next weekend, which is also the first Sprint Race of the season.

Reminder: Same as last season, we're going with 6 picks per round, a maximum of 10 picks per driver, and 4 drops for the rules (so there is still plenty of time to sign up for this season!) And we're sticking with the deadlines before Qualifying for a conventional weekend, and before the Sprint for a sprint weekend.

by Bob Danger at 9:28 pm, Mar 15 @sperry that was my bad, the FAQ doesn't have the email for the payment. So I figured the admin was probably correct. I should have inquired, but I registered a little late, and wanted to make sure I got my payment in.

by Suyash at 9:25 pm, Mar 15 Damn, I lost some points due to a car issue during a SC. 😭

by sperry at 12:36 pm, Mar 14 Hey @Bob Danger, not sure how/why your payment went to the administrator email address, rather than the paypal@seccs.org address, but I manually accepted the payment, so you should be all set!

by RobM at 5:54 am, Mar 13 I really, really, really want to see Sainz podium in a Williams.

by sperry at 4:32 pm, Mar 11 Yeah it does Bob. It's like one thing that's right in the world. _The_ one thing. lol

by Bob Danger at 1:26 pm, Mar 11 Feels right starting off in Australia.

by 1 Max V at 3:27 am, Mar 7 The champ is here!

edited by sperry at 12:37 am, Feb 23 Welcome back to Formula 1!

The driver lineup for 2025 has been shaken up, with more than one big-name driver off for a (unasked for) retirement. And of course, the biggest change in decades will be Lewis Hamilton wearing Ferrari red. Max Verstappen remains at Red Bull, but will they dominate the new season?

Same as last season (since it was a nail-biter of a finish), we're going with 6 picks per round, 10 picks per driver per season, and 4 drops for the rules. And we're sticking with the deadlines before Qualifying for conventional weekend, and before the Sprint for sprint weekend.

Good luck to all this year!
