Fantasy F1 2011 - Entry Thread

[jab]

It's here, it's finally here - welcome once again to the 10 Tenths Fantasy F1 Championship for 2011

Entries
The idea is you have to pick 2 drivers and a constructor within a budget of 100,000 (insert currency here). You don’t get any points for not spending under the budget. None of these can be from the same team - you can’t pick 2 drivers from the same team or a driver and the constructor of the same team. You also have to pick a chassis and an engine for your team. This can be the same engine that's in the back of the constructor's car, and also does not have to clash with the drivers

The top 3 engine scores (excluding the points given out for engine failures) count. There will be a 5 point penalty for every engine failure in a race, and a further 10 point penalty if the engine limit is exceeded for a driver (i.e. they get grid penalties for changing engines)

Please use the following entry form to post entries:

FAQs

I didn’t enter before the start of the season. Does this mean I now can’t take part?
You can enter whenever you like through the season. Just don’t expect points for the rounds you entered after. The deadline for each round is the start of Free Practice 1

Can I make any substitutions during the season?
You can make one free driver substitution during the season. You can make more than one change but it will cost you 15 points for every change after the first one. You cannot change constructors or engines

What happens if my driver is injured/killed/unable to participate in races due to legal reasons?
Automatically, you will receive points from that drivers’ replacement in his team, unless you request for a substitution. So, using an example from 2009, if you picked Massa and he was injured and you don’t fancy the idea of Badoer or Fisichella picking up points for you instead, you would have to make a substitution.

What happens if a driver is injured/killed/unable to participate in the race due to legal reasons, and one of my drivers moves teams to replace him, thus clashing with the team I chose at the beginning, e.g. if I picked Fisichella and Ferrari in 2009?
Don’t worry about it

Who is in charge?
I am. That means I decide what happens if things go array, like disqualifications, shortened races, lightning strikes and so on. Even $100m fines and disqualifications from the constructors championship. And no, picking Webber will not gain extra bonus points. And call me James. That is my name

Yes as last season both constructors cars score.

Team name: Racing for Sealand
Constructor: Mercedes £20,000

Hi Jamesy.

Alonso is 50,000 so you'll need to re-jig your team.

[Born Racer]

Team name: Born Racers
Constructor: Williams (15,000)

Driver 1: Hamilton (50,000)
Driver 2: Kobayashi (20,000)

I couldn't bring myself to choose Alonso even though he had such a good points haul last year, plus it could get confusing cheering on someone I'm not really cheering on. Please Hamilton, make it happen.

Not as much of a heart over head thing as it might look with my driver selection though (apart from maybe the Hamilton aspect a bit). There are sound reasons for choosing them.
