BTCC predictions 2021
Normally, the BTCC predictions thread consists of everyone making five predictions, and the winner being whoever gets the most correct. While this could be done as well this year, I thought I would try out a new method of doing the predictions thread in 2021. On racefans.net, there is an article every year, with twenty questions about the coming season to predict:
https://www.racefans.net/2020/03/08/...020-f1-season/ So I thought we could try this for the BTCC in 2021. Whoever gets the most right wins. So here are the questions: 1. Which drivers will win races in 2021? 2. How many wins will be scored by the drivers' champion? 3. Which of the following drivers will score the most points: Oliphant, Jelley, Morgan, Chilton? 4. How many of the rounds will be held with spectators? 5. Which drivers will leave their teams before the end of the season? 6. Who will retire from the most races due to crashes? 7. Which team will have the most retirements due to mechanical failures per car? 8. Who will Jason Plato's PMR teammate be, at the first round of the season? 9. Who will win the independents' championship? 10. Who will win the Jack Sears Trophy? 11. Who will win the teams' championship? 12. In which race will the drivers' championship be decided? 13. Who will score more points: Jack Goff or Aron Smith? 14. Will more races be won by FWD cars or RWD cars? 15. Will Jason Plato retire at the end of the year? 16. Who will win race one at the first meeting at Thruxton (first race of the season)? 17. How many of the 30 races will see at least one driver use wet tyres? 18. Who will score more points: Andy Neate or Jade Edwards? 19. How many drivers will still be in title contention going into the final round of the season? 20. Who will win the drivers' championship? Notes: For Q7, the number of mechanical failures is divided by the number of cars in that team, so for example Team HARD's total will be divided by four, but Speedworks' total will only be divided by two. MB and Motorbase shall be considered two separate teams. For Q8, any answers that come in after it has been announced will automatically get that question wrong. For Q19, that means race one at Brands Hatch, not race three. Let's see how it goes |

1. Turkington, Sutton, Shedden, Butcher, Hill, Morgan, Chilton, Ingram, Cook,
2. Seven 3. Chilton by a hair over Morgan. 5. I reckon at least one HARD driver. Can't see how Edwards has enough for a full season either when she had to drop out of Clios & Ginettas 6. Geddie 9. Sutton walkover 10. Boardley 11. Probably WSR though I think Ciceley has a stronger line-up 13. Jack Goff but won't finish in the top 12 championship 14. RWD 15. Yes 16. Shedden 18. Neate will get a few, Edwards zero 19. Two (Ash & Colin) 20. Turkington (though hoping for someone different). |

With Dan Lloyd announced today at PMR, question 8 is officially removed from the competition. Nobody got it right anyway.

So, the results. The entries were from sjb114, Biscuits in a Red Bull, MissClarrpz, steve_r, Matt K, swooshiain, mj088, Evantra, BTCC Frog.
1. Which drivers will win races in 2021? The correct answers were: Sutton Turkington Cook Ingram Hill Shedden Butcher Moffat Rowbottom Proctor Morgan Oliphant So the points (done by +1 for a correct answer, -1 for an incorrect answer, -1 for missing a correct answer. A point given to anyone with a positive score): BTCC Frog Evantra Matt K Biscuits in a Red Bull sjb114 2. How many wins will be scored by the drivers' champion? The correct answer was five, got correct by: sjb114 mj088 swooshiain Matt K 3. Which of the following drivers will score the most points: Oliphant, Jelley, Morgan, Chilton? The correct answer was Stephen Jelley, got correct by: mj088 swooshiain steve_r 4. How many of the rounds will be held with spectators? The correct answer was nine, got correct by nobody. 5. Which drivers will leave their teams before the end of the season? The correct answers were Geddie and Crees. I'll give a point to anyone who said Geddie and no more than one other: BTCC Frog swooshiain Matt K MissClarrpz sjb114 6. Who will retire from the most races due to crashes? I think the answer is Ollie Jackson (although they were rarely his fault). Nobody got this. 7. Which team will have the most retirements due to mechanical failures per car? Sorry, I have no idea. Should have thought about this before including the question. 8. Who will Jason Plato's PMR teammate be, at the first round of the season? Answer Dan Lloyd, got correct by nobody before it was announced. 9. Who will win the independents' championship? Correct answer Ash Sutton, got correct by: BTCC Frog Evantra mj088 swooshiain Matt K steve_r Biscuits in a Red Bull sjb114 10. Who will win the Jack Sears Trophy? Answer Dan Rowbottom, got correct by: MissClarrpz Biscuits in a Red Bull sjb114 11. Who will win the teams' championship? Correct answer Laser Tools, got correct by nobody (everyone chose WSR): 12. In which race will the drivers' championship be decided? The correct answer is race 29, got by: BTCC Frog Matt K 13. Who will score more points: Jack Goff or Aron Smith? Answer Jack Goff, got correct by: BTCC Frog Evantra mj088 Matt K steve_r Biscuits in a Red Bull sjb114 14. Will more races be won by FWD cars or RWD cars? Answer FWD, got correct by: mj088 swooshiain steve_r sjb114 15. Will Jason Plato retire at the end of the year? This is currently unknown 16. Who will win race one at the first meeting at Thruxton (first race of the season)? Answer Josh Cook, got correct by nobody. 17. How many of the 30 races will see at least one driver use wet tyres? I believe the answer is just one, race three at Thruxton, got by nobody. 18. Who will score more points: Andy Neate or Jade Edwards? Jade Edwards win this one 1-0, got correct by: sjb114 Biscuits in a Red Bull MissClarrpz steve_r Matt K swooshiain mj088 BTCC Frog 19. How many drivers will still be in title contention going into the final round of the season? Answer is five, got by: sjb114 MissClarrpz 20. Who will win the drivers' championship? The answer is Ash Sutton, got correct by: Biscuits in a Red Bull steve_r mj088 BTCC Frog So provisionally, at least, I calculate the scores to be BTCC Frog 7 Evantra 3 mj088 7 swooshiain 6 Matt K 7 steve_r 6 MissClarrpz 4 Biscuits in a Red Bull 6 sjb114 9 But whatever happens with the two questions currently without an answer, sjb114 is uncatchable so is crowned 2021 BTCC predictions champion! |
