Thread: BTCC Forum Predictions 2019: Brands Hatch II

[klaus]

Hello people!

Welcome to the second round of the 2019 BTCC.net forum predictions championship. The format is staying the same as the 2018 campaign,

With a full grid of 30 cars, 18 previous race winners and 5 champions on the grid, it'll be a good season ahead.

The basic format is the same as 2018, predicting the pole driver and results of the 3 races, however for 2019 it won't be the top 3 to predict but the top 5, but there is no Jack Sears Trophy part this season.


So the format;

Pole

Race 1;
1
2
3
4
5
FL

Race 2;
1
2
3
4
5
FL

Race 3;
Reverse grid draw;
Reverse Grid Pole;
1
2
3
4
5
FL


The points scoring for 2019 is;

Race 1 Pole; 24 Points
Races 1, 2 & 3;

P1 - 60 Points
P2 - 52 Points
P3 - 44 Points
P4 - 40 Points
P5 - 36 Points
FL - 30 Points

Reverse Grid number; 20 Points
Reverse Grid Driver; 30 Points

If you get both position and driver correct, it'll be 60 points.

For race 1 only, if you predict Pole, Winner and FL correctly, you'll score 140 Points, compared to the 114 it would be. So if you predicted Turkington to get Pole, win R1 and FL, you'll score 140 points but it would be 84 Points if he got pole and the win but another driver got FL.

Unlike in 2018, half points won't be awarded if a driver does finish inside the top 5, but not the position you predicted.

Rounds 5 and 10 will be double points rounds as per usual.

Good luck one and all!

Hello and sorry,

took me a while to finish this - we had an inspection or a checking (I don't know what's the correct English word) at work and so, I had to work way too much and way too long. The time I got left, I had to take care of my girlfriend, so that she can't complain… But it all worked ou fine.

And now for something completely different:

The results from the last round are as follows (Vanilla Astra scored top wit Cammish and Neal on one and two in the first race):

Vanilla_Astra: 112 points
Cari Lou: 100 points
motormouth_33: 80 points
SpanneredMonkey: 40 points
Klaus: 0 points
clio172ron:

Vanilla Astra retook the lead in the championship and is the 2019 winner!
Motormouth got really close to the second place (that's me) and fourth and fifth are only seperated by one point.

1st: Vanilla_Astra: 423 points
2nd: Klaus: 372 points
3rd: motormouth_33: 366 points
4th: SpanneredMonkey: 318 points
5th: Cari Lou: 317 points
6th: clio172ron: 171 Points

I think, it was a very tough year to predict the results, because there were many cars and drivers, capable of winning and being at the top. And that shows, what a good year it was for the BTCC in general.

Congratulations to Vanilla Astra and thanks to everyone, who took part

I didn't expect to win this year having missed almost half the season... thank you Klaus!

So 2 times winner in the space of 3 years or so... I must thank my loyal sponsors for their continued backing, the entire team for being the best in the business, the series organisers for arranging such an awesome Championship and all the other competitors for putting up a tough fight this season.

Here's to a successful defence in 2020.
