China is this weekend. There is still time to move up or down a position or two!

That will be the end of the innaugral season. Thanks to all who participated both officially and unofficially (those who didn't let the little commish know that they wanted in the NAM F1 Challenge.)

Do you want to do this again in 2006? If so, click on his name to send him an E-mail telling him you want to do it again in 2006

Would you want to rename the League? Let both me and the little commish know.

Prizes will again be a hearty handshake at the 04 MOTD and kind words here.

Perhaps we could find a decal vendor who could make up a custom decal for the champ?

Those "unofficial" results are surprising....figured I'd be bringing up the rear this week.

I hope we can do this again next year, and maybe we can entice a few more folks to join in as well.

This was very fun because I actually cared more about each position of the race and was really upset whenever an accident occurred during a race, whereas last year I just watched Schuey and Ferrari win everything and could not have cared less about the other positions

Like this last race with Montoya and Rubens issues really messed up my choices

Oh, I would really have to screw up my China choices to lose this year's challenge so I can be happy with that.:smile:

I think I was really lucky though with the US GP fiasco otherwise DrDiff would probably be leading.

I wonder also if some of you missed giving your choices for a race or two

Anyway this was fun and now to see who wins the Manufacturers Title this weekend

Official results with one race to go

1 Letsmotor 480
2 DrDiff 449
3 mgcman 420
4 kurvhugr 412
5 Grumpy 347
6 adame 194
7 Rollin 151


I got the points wrong. mgcman and krvhugr did not trade places. Remember that China is THIS WEEK!

Still time to move a slot or so.

I miss the 2 hour block with 12 laps max per driver from 3-4 years ago. So I would suggest the following changes to qualifying.

Friday: A 2 hour block MANDITORY 25 laps per driver. Note Fastest time. <25 laps = Manditory 10 positions deduction from race result.

Saturday: Re-fule for race strategy and put on race tires. One lap Best time gets pole. Order determined by Friday fastest times. No time Saturday Manditory 5 positions deduction from race results.

Technically you would get two races per race weekend!

No offense to Kimi and McClaren fans, but starting from the back of the grid is not even a slap on the wrist!

Final Race 2005 NAM F1 Chalenge.

OK I got my pix in. I want to say thanks to all who played! I look forward to next year.

Should we keep it NAM F1 Challenge? What would you want to name the league next season? We need something catchy...

MINI F1 Challenge?

BMW Junior Team?

If you know anyone else who is here on NAM and likes Formula One let them know and get them in on next year!

If you were not able to get in on this years festivities please contact The Little Commish by clicking here. commish@picksix.com

It has been fun. I hope we never have the SCREW up like what happened at Indy ever again!

Letsmotor 2005 NAM F1 Challenge winner

Congrats to Letsmotor Although the points and results aren't official I tip hat to you.

Sonabitchy, lost the overall by 3 points. I knew sleeping thru the Malaysian Grand Prix and getting no picks in would come back to haunt me

That just makes your 540 points from 18 races all the more impressive. That's 30 points on average per race. Historically awesome.

Be sure to join the NAM group in next year's picksix.

ggp: You have to get in to the NAM league next year!

Heck Rollin may have finished 7th in the NAM Challenge, he beat 7 others in the overall!

Can't wait for next season. Gonna have to try harder to get those 4th through 6th places correct.
