Very good decision from FIA, to not be a clown with that sanction, also Russel who was beneficiet with the podium sadi he thinks it was a little to much.
About RB, what i can say congratulations to them for build that amazing car, but i have to really blame Ferrari, for being again a shit and dont give to us the posibilities to see a fight in the track.
I only mention Ferrari because Mercedes, has made a lot and they need some rest after dominaiting from 10 years, but Ferrari..... come on they are wasting all the Leclerc potential.

In my opinion, Alonso deserves to get a podium as he has shown a good drive once again.
Also great race from Perez despite Safety Car.

it does not suit me well, but I also think that Alonso should get the podium (and it is officially his now, if I am not wrong)
basically, when race is finished you can reinstate penalty for each racer as you suit, and change their schedule, if they need to do it, it should be done before race end
congrats to winners, and feel sorry for buwaytress, he almost got his free-bet
RedBull seems unstoppable this season, looking at first two races

Congratulations top 3 (15.5).
buwaytress wins the Yellow Cap after Alonso was handed a 10-second time penalty after the race for incorrectly serving a previous five-second penalty.
Alonso's 100th career podium finish has been reinstated after winning appeal.

Alonso just got his podium back, looks like Aston Martin appealed to get Alonso's second penalty removed and Aston Martin found some good evidence.
Maybe we'll know later, what Aston Martin did in detail.
But for now, standings are updated:

Quite the race today but I think FIA should make this decision much more quicker because maybe Alonso had more power in his car to offer and could have made another great 15 laps and put some extra seconds between him and Russel but without the information coming from FIA towards Aston Martin , no one had any idea of this until the last laps of the race.. .
I also loved the fact that Perez managed for a few laps to be in the same tenth with Max and maybe I would love to see another Rosberg vs Hamilton but this time with RedBull drivers ...even if Max seems clearly way more complete as a driver than Perez.
On picks...almost a disaster for me lol as I felt 7 places

Ok! Thanks for the clarification.
So, congratulations to buwaytress.

I am fine with whatever you guys decide for prize pool. Not gonna get there in the end anyway Doing better than I expected so far and it seems it was an eventful race today but still didn't watch even a minute of it. Who knows maybe it will grow on me over the time.
@CLS63
You will always have two groups of players in the pools, those that want more paid places and those that want bigger rewards for the best. You can't please all of them, just pick what sounds good to you and make it public early in the season.

It is official now. Russell has taken the third position from Alonso officialy. Because Alonso has got another time penalty after the race which is a 10-sec one. It must be really devastating for Alonso to see the podium slipping through his fingers. He fought really hard for it throughout the race. But this is still a solid race for Alonso of course. And it looks like this season will go on really well for him as long as he doesn't have big problems with the car.
Verstappen could have won the race as well if he didn't have a problem with the driveshaft. Congrats to Perez on his win!

If someone does not see the race and only sees the final result, they say well, it was logical that VER would attack until the second.
On lap +35 (or less) Vert made three or two calls, "the car has a noise..." something like that, the team answered him, "all good", but he insisted, so I said, "done. ..it will happen, he has problems like in the Q", but the guy finishes off with Fastest lap, in short I gave up at least 3 points, since I missed the podium bonus.
Congratulations top 3 (15.5).
Although 25%(28) or 30%(28) allows an ITM of 7 and 8 respectively. More than that, for the number of players in the pool, it is not very adequate, in fact if they reduce it to 5, I would also say yes.

Really boring race in the end. RedBull its a long long way ahead of the rest, another league.
Verstappen really needs to be beaten , he is really a child, a completly petulant person, he needs to work on his ego, he put a 1-2 in danger only to get 1 point for the fast lap, what an idiot and more after crying in the radio about some noise in the car.
About last news, Alonso its given a 10 seconds penalty, absurd decision by FIA like ever, only because a mecanich touch the car before the 5 seconds penalty was served, was the rear but he make anything and this doesnt change any in the race you cant put 10 seconds for that, and also you ahve the whole race to say to him that so he can push to cut the 10 seconds, but no you wait to the end of the race to say that and destroy his podium.
About price distribution, i agree with you.
Maybe i made some little changes like:
- 50 mbtc
- 35 mbtc
- 20 mbtc
- 10
- 7
- 5
- 4
But in the end its the same.
I dont like so much the a lot positions rewarded because from 2 mbtc price its like the buy in so, its better more money for the winners.

If there is anyone who has some other recommendation about the prize distribution system they can write to the thread.

distribution seems fair, although I would like to see more players rewarded, maybe up to position 10
it would scale down top3 rewards, but would get more people satisfied with prize pool
nevertheless, it is good as it is as well
back to race, Max is back to position 2, and Alonso is close to another podium
The race just ended and I found the exact persons on the podium but I would have got the yellow cap if Verstappen was first and Perez second,nevertheless happy that Verstappen did the fastest lap in the end of the race which I think has given me enough points to enjoy for this second race and consolidate my position in the standings of this pool.
While the race was entertaining to watch as Verstappen started 15th I think that we all realized tonight that Redbull is going to win every single race of this season if other cars do not sweat out at work,Redbull was more than one second faster than Aston Martin which was the second fastest car from the field.

Do we have a distribution for our Prediction Pool money already @CLS63?
All payments should be in right now and maybe we can give out rewards to all Top 5 positions in our pool?
Maybe make it 50% / 25% / 12.5% / 7.5% and 5% each?
Or only Top 3?
Opinions?

Hello friends. The prize distribution system in my mind for the pool is like this now:
1) 55mbtc
2) 36mbtc
3) 20mbtc
4) 10mbtc
5) 5mbtc
6) 5mbtc(minus tx fees)
If there is anyone who has some other recommendation about the prize distribution system they can write to the thread.
For me looks perfectly fine but if we want to include like 8-10 prize spots we can also go down the first prize to 40 and second prize to 30 mBtc and distribute these 21 mBtc to the 7-10 prize which can be 3-5 mBtc this way we increase the number of people who win something here.Of course it is much better when we have bigger prizes but if you have a look at the English Premier League pool you will see that the captain there has gone for like 35% of people to get at least something.If we can do that here also it can greatly increase the interest of participants for next season.
I fully agree with yours though,just adding a suggestion

Does anybody else think that Verstappen will continue to have mechanical or technical issues at the race? I still have him finishing first in the race like what we saw last year when he had a grid penalty to I think 12th on the grid. But as he's stlll using the same power unit, who knows what could happen... It's gonna be a treat to watch him try and pass all the guys in front of him. Hamilton, Russell, Leclerc, Sainz and Alonso. But we'll see. A DNF for him is also possible imho.
But we'll see. A DNF for him is also possible imho.I think based on the bookies,in all of them without exception he has an odd of 2.30-2.40 to win the race in all these different bookies while starting 15th which does not make sense so I am assuming he will have no mechanical problems or are the bookies f*cking with us maybe because Perez starting from pole position with the same car has an odd of 2.10-2.20 in these different bookies,so I got and placed a bet on him to win the race,normally in normal conditions he should be able to pull away as Verstappen has to deal with a lot of drivers in front of him and some good ones like Leclerc right ahead of him a couple of positions.I also have Verstappen as a winner and did not change it but let's see how events unfold in a couple of hours.
But as you've said, in normal conditions, Perez should win. Perez isn't bad at street tracks and already last year, he took pole as well and was leading until a Safety Car screwed up his strategy...

Hey! that we can have a Top3 in the Spanish local language, ,Checo and Alonso, they look comfortable and enjoying the moment, especially Alonso, so I think they will inspire Sainz, who seems to be on the hunt for the top 3.
Otherwise! if it were another circuit, I think that LEC and VER would have no problem even trying to get into there for the Top3 fight.

It's not impossible, but I don't think it will be easy with 3 Spanish-speaking riders in the top 3. I have Alonso in 2nd place, the other two places on the podium are Verstappen and Leclerc, but that will be very difficult. But the race is long and there are no defects ruled out.
