Fantasy Formula 1 2016 Entry

Fantasy Formula 1 2016 is here! Here is this years rules and point scoring scheme.

Qualifying:

Points are awarded to the drivers for qualifying. The points range from 22 points for pole position down to 1 point for the 22nd driver on the grid.

1st - 22pts

2nd -20pts

... 

21st - 2pts

22nd - 1pt

Qualifying positions will be taken as the drivers starting grid position. This is so any penalties awarded to the drivers are factored in. 0 points are awarded to those that fail to qualify.
Race:

Points are awarded to both the drivers and teams for the final race results.

Drivers points:

These mirror the official FIA point scheme.

1st 25pts; 2nd 18pts; 3rd 15pts; 4th 12pts; 5th 10pts; 6th 8pts; 7th 6pts; 8th 4pts; 9th 2pts; 10th 1pt.

A bonus of 5 points are awarded to the driver who sets the fastest lap during the race.
Teams points:

Again the points mirror those of the FIA point scheme for driver finishing positions.

1st 25pts; 2nd 18pts; 3rd 15pts; 4th 12pts; 5th 10pts; 6th 8pts; 7th 6pts; 8th 4pts; 9th 2pts; 10th 1pt.

A bonus of 10 points are awarded to every car that finishes the race.

Bonus points:

Double points will be awarded for your 2 selected tracks.

50 points will be awarded if you correctly predict the 2015 Formula 1 driver champion.

50 points will be awarded if you correctly predict the 2015 Formula 1 team champion.

All qualifying and finishing positions will be taken from the BBC sport formula 1 website.

If a driver is replaced for whatever reason, you will accrue the points from the replacement driver.

Here are this years groups.

Group K is for any driver you choose to be crowned overall champion.

Group L is for any team you choose to be crowned overall champion.

I'll aim to have results on the blog the same day as the race where possible.
