For the latest Formula 1 news, visit the Formula 1 News page.

The deadline for submitting the picks is the start of Saturday practice. That is at 13:00 Kuala Lumpur time (05:00 GMT).

Please note that the scoring for Australia has been completed however we haven't sent out the emails due to a problem with group ranking. You can log in and view your results.
In addition, since Ricciardo was disqualified and Red Bull's subsequent appeal, the result isn't finalised until the appear is heard and a final decision is made.


Good luck

Here are mine:
Winner: Lewis Hamilton
Second: Nico Rosberg
Third: Valtteri Bottas
Fourth: Kevin Magnussen
Fifth: Felipe Massa
Sixth: Fernando Alonso
Seventh: Nico Hulkenberg
Eighth: Jenson Button
Ninth: Sebastian Vettel
Tenth: Daniil Kvyat
Pole: Lewis Hamilton

Hard to see past Mercedes, if it's dry. Fortunately, two good drivers means the title race could still be great even if they have season long dominance. Williams could do very well, but they did seem to be disproportionately struggling in the wet.

Ferrari just aren't fast enough. Raikkonen's really struggling, and Alonso was about the same as Hulkenberg (NB I rate Hulkenberg very highly, but the Ferrari should be faster than the Force India by a distance).

:D :D Well, Thaddeus must think Lewis is MOTIVATED for Malaysis. And I'd say he was, too. But you know who is MORE MOTIVATED? :D

That's right: Nico. And he's not taking the back seat any more. I'm picking Rosberg to take the race AND the pole AND the fastest lap. He'll either do that or take his teammate out on the first lap of the race. :twisted:

So Here's the points winners:
1. Rosberg in the fastest car on the grid
2. Seb Vettel in another fast car. I think the start might be the most exciting in a very long time.
3.Lewis will podium, yes. But at the wrong end of it.
4. Fernando will be there in case anything goes wrong ahead of him
5. and hungry Dan Ricciardo in the other Red Bull will be pushing Fernando.
6. Jenson Button will put McLaren in the points, but not on the podium ... yet.
7. Kevin Magnussen will not get so lucky this week.
8. Nico Hulkenberg will drag the Force India into the points and maybe even break into the top five -- if enough front runners are victims of their tyres
9. I'm picking Felipe Massa in the Williams for old time's sake.
10. and Valtteri Bottas because I'd love to see two of Frank's cars in the points again.

Pole: as I said, will go to Nico.
My Racing Gods: Fangio, Vukovich; Senna & Mears --all racers all the time; graceful winners & generous in defeat, but never giving up!!
