Fantasy F1: it’s like we never turned up…

We kind of feel that, reviewing the results of our fantasy F1 league for the outcome of the Spanish Grand Prix that Team Brits on Pole might have been better off not turning up at all.
The reason? Up 28 places overall last time around – down 26 this time. We could have saved ourselves the air fare and the hospitality bill :D
Ho hum. There’s always someone worse off than you, in this case the 200-odd players in the bottom half of the table – so we can’t complain too loudly.
And there will hopefully be a chink of light next week – the first of our bonus races is coming up. The points awarded to the race’s pole sitter will be added to our score for the race weekend – let’s just hope that, if it’s Jenson Button or Sebastian Vettel, we get them twice.
Come on, boys, we’re counting on you.
