Free Bets of 1 mBTC have been credited to all participants; as well as Yellow Caps for Bahrain and Saudi Arabia

Thank you for the free bets I already spent all of them in the games of Champions League tomorrow by playing over and under goals,I know I am going to lose them but what do I care,they were free bets anyway  .

I also updated my third chunk payment in my post where are all payments listed in page 68 or 69 of this thread and now only less than 0.0005 remains to be paid,I will most likely pay by next Wednesday max and finish this,this got completely out of hand when the price of Bitcoin got to 70.000 as I need some money in cash and only very few left in Bitcoin to pay here,glad I did and hopefully I am winning the free bet tomorrow  .

What a boring race, and i hate to say this but seems like a boring season ahead... again.

Unfortunately it wasn't just a boring race, it's going to be another boring season, reminds me of Mercedes dominance.... It was only exciting (if you can call it that in Formula Mercedes) when Rosberg drive against Hamilton, Perez is a good driver but no match for Max, and the other teams are just too weak to fight against RedBull and Max.

You are mention boring, also a bit of past history; Rosberg, Hamilton, and Mercedes. Then you also mention that Checo is not a good driver, ok, although any those who arrived second have that stigma... anyway.

Well, to the "point of point:" (or soap) given the existential gossip in RedBull, and because you mention Mercedes, there is the remote one, even unlikely possibility that RedBull will be left without Max, very controversial like when Baby Ruth went to the Yankees.

Maybe something like that will  finish up with his hegemony, and driving style "Mach GoGoGo." ; )

They know that the fans have that feeling, plus it would be the first sport in which the fans follow it to know who is second, even third place.

Thank you for sending free bet, it was winning single bet with amazing odds on Lyon win
I watched the match with young Cherki coming in second half as substitution and totally changing the game outcome, dont be surprised if you see him in much bigger club soon.
I almost fully recovered my entry fee for participation in Sportsbet Formula 1 pool, and now I need to win points in next round and climb the Supebru table

Well done mate,I won both Champions League games only to lose in weekend a lot of bets as I made just 0.81 mBtc so I could not withdraw but you have done exceptionally well choosing that team which is surely staying in the last places of the Ligue 1 this season so again congrats on that.

As for race week,it will be a technical track as I have said before and I expect to see a much better McLaren in this track where they have always done well,Ferrari is still the second force and Redbull first yet I have tons of doubts regarding Mercedes,maybe the class of Hamilton as a driver can make a difference in this track.Tomorrow night I add my last payment chunk of 0.000449 Bitcoin to fulfill the 0.002 entry fee.

Thanks for the information, then I hope everything will be okay again and there might be an Australia GP Challenge after all, if not it's not so tragic and I hope to be back at the next GP.

I added my 4th and final chunk of the payment so we are all green know in this pool.It is race week in Australia which most likely means I should put before the picks as most likely I can forget to watch the free practice and then to decide to go with the predictions I will made,most likely I will be sleeping but may be my little kid wakes me up in 7 AM or 8 AM whenever the race is so I cannot miss any action from this technical track which in video games of F1 that I have played was always my favorite as it gave me that feeling like I was being a very technical driver while driving Mclaren here  .The fourth payment is in the 69 page of this thread where I have updated all my payments there.

[CLS63]

Good luck to everyone in the race at the weekend. Melbourne Grand Prix track is really very special for me. I played here the most because of its being the first track of the calendar while I was playing F1 on console in my childhood. And the old version of the track was quite enjoyable for game consoles. When it comes to the race Red Bull is a big favourite as always. I hope that there would be a chance for us to see a surprise.

@swogerino I have updated the OP mate.

[slaman29]

Sainz is back! I still think he won't have a great race though. Oc I got no reason to think so other than he might get too eager to win after missing Jeddah

Yet to make my picks, just never know what things can look like at the end.

This is the longest straight, so I think Max is going to get 40 seconds lead if he wins

In the longest straight you come after a very technical part which is most of this track and this was one of my favorite tracks.I don't think the lead of Max is going to be that big.The reason for that is very simple,I was scrolling through the social media pages and saw the review of the last race in 2023,I must say we had a lot of accidents during that race and since I don't think much has changed for the cars during this season,they will still be very close to each other and so I predict again lots of incidents during this upcoming race which would make this much better in terms of dynamics and emotions during the race,much different than those races we have already seen,very much boring ones.

I guess I don't really know how it works, but in my very amateur mind for F1, based on PS games lol if you have 1 long drag stretch of road, your car will eat up all the road and make every lap 1 second gap. But you're right, accidents will take that all away, so maybe I shouldn't have predicted such a huge gap in my Predictions.

As long as it's not boring nobody will complain. But you know, everyone's already complaining it's boring and I have to agree. This is like Manchester City waiting for Klopp to make things exciting again.

I always like the race in Australia too, hopefully RedBull won't dominate again like they have in previous races. In any case, I'm going to wait for the practice session, as this time the race is on Sunday again.

I think the fact that the drivers complained from last year race that they barely had sun light in the ending laps of the track surely have impacted those number of incidents.I think despite the race starting one hour earlier still I think it is not because of low sun light but because they were near each other many times last race because of the safety car coming in.The fact that most cars have not a huge gap compared to each other excluding Redbull of course will surely make this race much more colorful than those 2 first races we had so far.

Personally I only look forward to only this race that does not take place in Europe where the best F1 tracks are,all other races outside of Europe are boring usually.

[LTU_btc]

It's not 100% about Sainz racing, he said that he won't race if he will feel bad during practice. So, I'll wait a bit before making predictions.
Australian GP is on extremely early time for people in Europe. Here in my country race will start at 6 AM, don't know how I will get up. I liked when Australia was season opener because you were missing F1 after winter and hyped for new season. Now it's 3rd race, you already know who will win and hype is much smaller.

[cryptofrka]

Can Sainz race if Bearman does the qualifiers? Really unsure what the rules are in that specific situation and I've heard that is the likely outcome.

To be honest, even if Sainz is permitted to race without doing qualifiers, I'd let Bearman go for it. If he's in the car tomorrow, he should be on Sunday too.

Sainz started in practice today, so it shouldn't be a problem, but we'll have to wait for the third practice tomorrow to see if he wants to drive in qualifying and the race, if not it shouldn't be a problem if the replacement starts in qualifying?

I have now placed my Superbru tip, and probably a bit risky as I have not put Verstappen on pole position (which probably won't happen).

[slaman29]

Agree with cryptofrka. Bearman should do it, it's like asking a reserve player to warm up and then ask someone else from bench who hasn't even put on a jersey yet to play.

I've no idea what things look like in countries with 4 seasons, we have sun all the time here, just whether it's wet or dry sun or cloudy or no clouds lol.

In fact I didn't even know Australia had 4 seasons, even though by right they are so far down South of course they must have daylight seasons.

I think F1 should have like Olympics, Winter and Summer But maybe non-Europe tracks are just so boring to try do more? What about US tracks?

[CLS63]

Hello to everyone. As the time of the Australian GP is different compared to many races in the calendar don't forget to make prediction. One shouldn't forget that every 1 point is very valuable especially in the F1 pool. Therefore I'm tagging the people who use telegram bot to see this post. Good luck to everyone! I hope that Red Bull have a mechanical failure.
