Predict Fastest Lap - 2007 US Grand Prix (Kapel wins!!)

Post by Tim » Wed Jun 13, 2007 6:30 am

Predict the Fastest Lap time for the 2007 United States Grand Prix.

If someone gets a perfect match or near perfect (+/- 0.1 seconds), we'll give away a prize. (A choice between an Digital Alarm Clock and a Stopwatch).
And an even better prize if you get the time and the driver (A pair of Binoculars) and better still if you get the time, the driver and the lap number (A USD $100 instant gift certificate or equavilent from a choice of suppliers!)

Please include the time to the 1000's of a second, the driver and the lap number. You can if you wish include a wet time as well

For reference, the fastest lap of the race at the 2006 United States Grand Prix was a 1:12.719 by Michael Schumacher on lap 56


The Fine Print
One entry (dry and wet) per user with one change per condition allowed. Entries close prior to the start of qualifying session on Saturday
The winner will be the one who manages to predict the closest time. You need to be within 0.1 seconds of the fastest lap time to be declared the winner.
In case of two players predicting the same time and driver, the player who submitted earlier will be the winner.
Changing time and/or driver is allowed only once and the change cannot be a max or min to try and gain advantage (eg. if the highest fastest time posted is a 1:45.345, a player cannot change their time to a time above that)

As for the fastest lap I'd have gone along with Lloyd's guess :)

Just 0.025 seconds off the actual time. Well done Kapel. You seem to have rediscovered that magic touch again :shock:

Congratulations again!

I guess I'd better create a file with "congrats Kapel" in it :)
