jayce, you are a simple gentleman and scholar; for me, what keeps me alive is the naive wait for a natively yet independently produced epic of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Then I can grovel in my collection of KOEI historical simulation diskette games and grumble-shuffle along to my hopefully tiny ceramic crock and have my ashes fed to the fish. Well done. Well bloody done!

Answers sent, what a delight to see frka get negative points <3

Hi guys a new round is on us and this one is the last for this stint of 3 consecutives races in asia, we are starting to reach the final phase of the tournament and as expected all is heating up.

Thanks for reminding darbit.
Sorry guys but I am taking the win for Singapore Grand Prix.
I only won one round so far and after that I mised two rounds, that effectively ruined my chances of winning the title this season 
For Singapore GP I have some ideas and I think we are going to see surprise results from, but I am keeping predictions private for myself.
My second mission in this round is to finish above Mafia in any way I can, dirty play is allowed this time.

[jayce]

...
Hahahaha nice one.

Yes finally you won a round and you really deserve it, you were super close before and if you dont miss that round for sure you are gonna be the leader by a good gap.

It seems like your message activate some alarms in the other winners from past round because after a lot of time one of them send me his btc adress, seems like they are not so generous 
...

Oh boy, my bad for summoning their name up Well at least everyone having fun in your competition. Good job dar! Let me know if the other guy doesnt reach you yet, so I'll separate wallet to "keep" his money.

You have my respect, master buwa zi! I can see you were enjoying your time with those collections. Your ashes would be scattered into the holy Ganges River, becomes one with the flow🌸

I think is my time to win a round, im being the worst possible and the only thing it can change for me is if i start to win some rounds so at least i end the season with a much better flavor.

Is gonna be difficult but in this last round i didnt end at the bottom and despite having one driver with negative points i made a decent round.

When Antonelli is not gonna be a super sure pick anymore? Are we gonna see that in this season? i dont think so.

Looking at weather forecast and see big possibility of rain on Saturday and Sunday. It can be huge factor, considering that it will be bussy sprint weekend and if you will hit the wall, there won't be much time to fix car.

I was not expecting a "good" performance from them but i was expecting at least to not be this bad, since they are a big company i was expecting  a lot more.

Yeah, it's a big company, but F1 is completely new area for them. Audi has much easier path after buying existing team.
BTW, Bottas today already reached Singapore safely. Why to choose private jet when you can make some adventure

And the food along the way (and the view, if he takes the scenic route) is amazing, by the way! I used way twice in the same sentence!

Is it sad I still play them from time to time? Usually when alone with a week or so, and then lose sleep without ever finishing an entire campaign. If anyone would like to play hot seat "Liberty or Death" I would love to pay for your company haha. Toughest turn-based gmae of all the KOEI series I think!

Mmm, to be one with the flow, and to be used to wash over millions of devotees. I love it.

No Guru, you are the manliest man ever. It's never a sad thing to maintain a good time with these games. I bought PS4, but barely played it, like twice in a month, then PS5 showed up, mrs. jayce rejected my proposal to get that, of course because I wont play it that much, so yeah, I forget the immersion. My wish is simple, I hope I'm not reincarnated as a stone with boring look in my next life.

Well at least he finished the trip, unlike his two last races lol.




Anw I have received the yellow card reward. Thanks dar, ico and b1exch team for organizing this tournament. All the best to all of you. I'll convince the other guy to donate his reward to me

If it is rain it is welcome as rain here in a city circuit would not be much of a problem compared to Sepang, in fact last time we saw blue full wet tires was Las Vegas 2024 or 2025 don't remember well now. Also rain reminds us of the massive turn 1 crash between Vettel, Verstappen and a few others in the 2017 race in this track. Usually not a boring track but I am sure rain can give it the boost to make it one of the best races of the season.

[darxiaomi]

Rain is always welcome for us as a viewer since adds spicy and randomness to the race, only in a few races is not desirable but in most of them in the actual F1 is the only thing that could bring some real excitement to the race and put an equalizer to the diference between teams.

In other things i just updated the leaderboard with the last races results, not so much has changed anyways, only jay coming back to reclaim his throne cutting some of the distance.

[buwaytress]

Eh, so not many overtakes on this race, so who lasts, wins, eh?

I bought PS4 for the kid, as well as xbox, but that was more for me to play the entire Halo and GoW series with him on co-op (I myself only played the first two of each so the newer versions were also adventures for me, can't say I didn't enjoy them except with him he wanted to play normal as we got stuck so long heh).

If I'm reincarnated -- I hope the end is the end for me though -- I should like to not be something that is preyed upon easily =p A stone or stick that isn't boring, yes!

According to GPT there was like 25 overtakes last year so it is possible, but anything is possible for that matter right?

We need rain in a city circuit like this, while DRS didn't give you much boost to overtake here before it is now a completely different story with boost, overtake and battery recharge and overall management. In this new format this is quite a long track and means that depending how drivers use their deployment for overtake or defending I think we can see quite a lot of overtakes here. Honestly I hope rain is part of this race.

[darbitmobilerecovery]

Well the sprint qualifying is nearby to an end, i didnt make my predictions yet but if you ask me i dont know what im gonna do since in the sprint can happen anything and maybe a few cars could get damage and change the other and main qualy and our selections.

Until now Mercedes didnt seems super strong but we already saw this several times and we all know how this ended with Antonelli making a maginificent races and ending always on top or at least in the podium.

[darxiaomi]

Last call from my side guys, im not gona be nearby to call/tag the users who didnt submit so consider this as last call.

Is not so much to wait unless you want to see if in the sprint race something happen and change everything. Right now the best so far is Antonelli dont finding the correct pace and set up for this circuit, but we all know he can cahnge it in a matter of days.

See you all in the finish line

My predictions sent on time and Dortmun started ok with two goals scored, but I hope to see few more goals.
Mafia again have similar predictions like me, with only one different team, he picked Mainz and I picked Arsenal.
We even picked them same relegation team Fulham, but I think advantage is on my side this time.

[LTU_btc]

Submitted my picks. Sprint qualifying helped me a lot to decide what I'm going to predict.
But again, we got contraversial thing less than week after software bug in Malaysia, now FIA official forgot to push a button needed to enable full engine power in sprint qualifying. WTF is happening?

One thing looks sure, Verstappen is Tier 2 favorite this time as both McLaren cars seemed nowhere near the Redbull pace. I believe the pace of Ferrari will not be the same in a dried track, hopefully it dries for official qualifying and we see a dry qualification for once. This will make sure that all drivers have a good chance, in Tier 1 I would go with Antonelli as the Ferrari team is always there to ruin every good race with their strategy disasters that are very common in F1 in these last years while in the era of Schumacher the Ferrari team was master of inventing winning strategies even when winning seemed impossible. Tier 3 and Tier 4 are always lotteries and no, I have had enough of that idiot Bortoleto ruining my points every time I put him in Tier 4.

[darbitmobilerecovery]

Hi guys I'm not home so just in case the form is gonna auto close at the previous stated  hour of the start of the qualy, if anyone wants to change anything and the form is closed and the qualy didn't start just send me a PM with the picks.

Anyways I think everyone submitted in a fast check so no problem.

[swogerino]

Well looks like Hamilton was on another level today and the fact that he ended up 3rd was only to him making mistakes in the last part of his final lap in Q3, still good to see Hamilton on such a positive form, also Leclerc not that bad at all. Max though is on another world of his own as he is dominating everything, from Sprint pole, Sprint win and lastly today Qualifying pole. Tomorrow I doubt any team had the pace from what I have seen today to stop Redbull, the track is very difficult as we saw in a very boring sprint race, maybe first lap will be important as most probably a lot of times the Safety Car comes here. Well let's see what happen and very glad I didn't choose Bortoleto, maybe miracle happens tomorrow for him but highly doubt that.

If Max would had such car for whole or at least most part of the season, probably we would see much more interesting fight for champion title.
Few words about sprint - I can't remember any other race with such conditions where big part of track was completely dry and only some sections were wet. Russel makes such rookie mistake - we all know how slippy these white lines is after getting wet. Norris crashing with Piastri also doesn't looks solid for Wordl Champion. Anyway, such chaos made sprint race interesting.
I see that tomorrow we also can get wet race. It would be interesting, I just hope that rain won't be too strong and we won't see red flag.
