genji said:If everyone votes Hamilton as first choice and Alonso as third choice then Hamilton will be first and Alonso will be third (assuming second place balances out), surely?
If half the voters vote Hamilton first and Alonso third and the other half vote Alonso first and Hamilton third then it will be a tie, which is fine, I think.
While I completely understand what you are saying mate you couldn't run it by adding a poll to the thread you would have to get every person to post their top three. If you look at the number of people who have voted v the number of people who have posted, there are more who have expressed their view in the poll but not posted an opinion.
I think in general one member one vote is the best way to do it. It can be difficult picking the one best driver but that's why I called it driver of the weekend because it gives you 3 days of effort to consider.
