    Welcome to Fantasy F1 2012! Below are details of the drivers, chassis and engines for this year, once you've made your picks, post a reply in this thread.

    The important stuff - the rules, and how the points are calculated - are detailed in the FF1 Rules and Scoring Thread. Please read this and have a good think before signing up - if you still have any questions after reading the rules, post them in this thread.

    Choose Your Team

    Choose your team name and select two drivers, one reserve driver, one chassis and one engine from the available budget of £545m. The key restriction is that you cannot choose a chassis that is used by any of your three drivers (so for example, if you pick the McLaren chassis, you cannot select either Hamilton or Button as your drivers, including as your reserve). There is no restriction on engine choice. Don't worry if you don't use up your entire £545m budget, any money left over will be available in your bank to put towards transfers during the season.

    Only your two nominated drivers will score points for the team - the reserve driver is there as a backup. You can choose to activate your reserve driver (effectively running a 'third car') for one race by paying a fee of £18m - see the Rules thread for further details. The reserve driver can be run at as many races as you want, provided that you have the money to pay the £18m fee each time.

    *Value rounded up to minimum of £50m


    All the values are based on the number of world championship points scored by the driver/chassis/engine in his/their previous ten races (rounded up to a minimum of £10m for drivers, £25m for chassis and £50m for engines). After each race the values will be recalculated, see the Rules thread for more details.

    You are allowed to make a maximum of 15 transfers through the season to change your drivers, chassis or engine. Between each pair of races ('transfer window') a transfer thread will be opened for you to make your changes - the deadline is midnight before first practice for the next race. You can make as many changes in each 'window' as you wish - so for example, all three drivers, your chassis and your engine - but each change counts as one against your total of 15.

    Transfers will be made based on the values of the driver/chassis/engine at the time, not what they were at the start of the season. Successful players often use this system to buy cheap, sell expensive and invest the profits in a stronger team.

    If you want to swap your reserve driver for either of your nominated drivers, you can do this during the transfer window between each Grand Prix. As these are internal team changes, you are not charged one of your fifteen transfers, and you may make as many swaps as you wish during the season. The same deadlines will apply as to transfers, so you will not be able to swap drivers during a race weekend.

    To enter, choose your team, check it's within the rules and budget, and post a reply on this thread as follows:

    Fantasy F1 Cup

    All players in the Fantasy League are also automatically entered for the Fantasy Cup. Players are paired off for one-on-one battles through individual races through the season, with the last man or woman standing at Interlagos taking the prize! With the potential for the league leaders to have an off day, anyone can win. MCLS is the Cup administrator and will post more details of the first round of fixtures once League entries have closed.


    Teams Championship

    New for this year, players can buddy up in pairs to compete for the FF1 Teams Championship. It couldn't be simpler, just head over to the Teams Championship thread and advertise for a team-mate! The scores of both players will simply be added together, and the pair with the highest total at the end of the season wins the shiny Teams Cup.


    Bonus Prediction Game

    Each race there will be a prediction game set up in a new thread in the FF1 forum. Bonus points will be awarded to players whose predictions are correct. The prediction game for Melbourne is already set up - so register your predictions now.


    Entries will close at midnight on Wednesday 14th March.


    GOOD LUCK!

    You certainly can, there's no restriction on engine choice at all.

    You can change your choices before the deadline without using up any transfers, until then the game hasn't started; however I'd prefer you to wait and post your choices later if you're not sure right now, as if everyone changes theirs constantly it creates a lot of extra work!

    There's no problem with two or more players picking the same teams at this stage, if they want. Over the course of the season with transfers and bonus points available, things are likely to change.
  7. ramilas1 Points Scorer

    Cheers, Galahad,

    Just done the maths and I can start the season with almost the same as I finished with in Brazil.

    D1 - Alonso: 145
    D2 - Button: 161
    Res - Sutil Hülkenberg: 21
    Chassis - Mercedes: 97
    Engine - Cosworth: 50
    Cash: £71m
    ..... so, I think I will go with that for now; and then wait until after testing to decide if I make any changes. :thankyou:
