Update:
The BAR Honda team are appalled by the decision and are examining their options. This could mean that they appeal the decision and request a court injunction to race in Spain.

We've sent out a "Call for Picks - Update" to all players informing them of the FIA ruling.

BAR boss Nick Fry indicated that the team will try to race in Spain.
It is up to you if you want to pick Button and/or Sato but at this stage they are banned from racing in Spain and Monaco.
BAR may get an injunction and race in Spain but if their appeal process fails then they'll again be stripped of the points they score (if any).

As always our scoring is based on the Official FIA results

FATBOY Montoya will won't last the race..fitness will be a problem and cause him to lose concentration and put his car in the dirt....

first 3 should be close the rest will battle between themselves for the rest of the points.

The round of Spain saw another tie at the top. This time AfterShock and biye (Winner of the Bahrain round) both scored 47 points. Both had their picks rolled over from San Marino and AfterShock was the earlier of the two to submit the picks. So congratulations to AfterShock on winning the round of Spain. AfterShock wins the round and wins the NewsOnF1 Compact Smart Digital Clock with Alarm.
AfterShock only joined the competition at the round of San Marino. Another example of how anyone can win regardless of when they enter.

Overall Lance now leads by 3 points from biye with N. Jones in 3rd. (Good to see a regular contributor in the top 3 again!)

The Overall Top 20 is available here

The Spanish Top 100 is available here

The Popularity Picks for the round of Spain is available here
