Fantasy Racers Reminder - Germany
Published
It's been weeks and weeks since I looked at Fantasy Racers. During the last race, we were unexpectedly at the track on Friday and missed the cut off for swapping the team. Now, I am right back on form though, and have chosen for the upcoming German Grand Prix.
Firstly, I decided to give Massa a second chance, mostly because Rob is ace. If it's going to be wet this weekend then I'm going to be very misguided, but Lewis was having problems with his KERS, and right now I trust the Ferrari more than the McLaren. LewHam had to go, and Felipe Baby got the nod. Next, I knew I was happy with Vettel and Button, and remembered that a while back I wanted to purchase Alonso but couldn't quite afford him. I decided to ditch Trulli and grab the Spaniard whilst I could. I don't really have thoughts on Rosberg either way, so I left him in.
| Driver | Price |
|---|---|
| Felipe Massa | 9.8 |
| Fernando Alonso | 6.9 |
| Jenson Button | 13.7 |
| Nico Rosberg | 7.3 |
| Sebastian Vettel | 13.8 |
The prices are correct at the time of writing. I have 0.7 million left to spend, which won't get me much, and the total value of my team is 52.2. This means although JB's value went down slightly, Der Seb's improvement has more than counteracted any lasting effects.
To change your own teams, head on over to Fantasy Racers - you've got until 5pm BST (4pm GMT, 12pm EST). Let us know who you go with and why, and if you're not joined up yet, all you need to know is here. Good luck everyone!

ok. the fightback starts here and now. that ollie white is going to eat his words.
now... who to pick?
Who have you got?
Giancarlo Fisichella
Rubens Barrichellom
Sebastian Vettel
Sebastien Buemi
Timo Glock
Well that's not bad at all. You got one Brawn and one Red Bull, so you're hedging your bets. Fisi's doing okay, and Toyota sometimes do well. Buemi is the only wild car, really.
I've ditched Massa and I'm going for some rain specialists, Sutil and Buemi, in his place as I think two finishers are better than one. So no doubt Massa will clinch pole...
ok. so i just stick with these?
No comment. Otherwise you'll blame me if you do badly.
Jenson Button
Mark Webber
Nico Rosberg
Rubens Barrichello
Sebastian Vettel
mwahahaha
it doesn't seem like much of a fightback. what's your strategy? i'm gonna keep doing what i have been doing... nothing.
Jenson Button
Mark Webber
Rubens Barrichello
Sebastian Vettel
Adrian Sutil
Sebastien Buemi
Okay then. Get rid of Glock and buy someone else.
Why do some people have more drivers than others?
You can buy more cheaper drivers, versus buying less expensive drivers
But you have Button, Webber, Vettel and Barrichello. How can they be cheaper than Glock, Buemi and Fisichella....
I bought Button and Barrichello before the season started, when they were cheap
Oh I see. Shrewd move when everyone else was buying Ferrari and McLaren....
ooh yes ;)
Kathi bought so many drivers they brought in a rule limiting you to 9 drivers maximum. She should be trading stocks or something with the amount of money she made.
Change of plan - Rubens not impressing me this weekend... him and Buemi out, Massa back in along with Rosberg (Rubens for pole instead then)
my new lineup:
Jenson Button
Kimi Raikkonen
Nick Heidfeld
Sebastian Vettel
ollie must but shaking in his boots right now.
And I think she's now pulling off something similar in her secondary accounts, now that her primary account is romping away with the championship...
btw. 8 brand new FR teams joined the SPC league for this race.
Aren't you just straight onto a loser? How can you do well if you've missed half the season?
I've got
I'm thinking of replacing Rosberg, i can afford anyone. Who should i get?
only 4 drivers? i hope your lineup is very different to ollie's, then.
you're racing those teams at the back... and me.
rachel signuped for the last race, along with 5 others and now she has 13 teams to race. plus people only just ahead of her.
I'd have Massa, but I don't even understand the game properly so I wouldn't listen to me :P
ooh. i didn't check that.
They are not going to win but they can join the fun and learn for next season. I also learned this week that the highest scorer at every race or as we prefer to call her Kathi gets a prize so there is hope for them especially if they pick up a lot of cheap drivers and the slow teams get fast.
Maybe Dan should just ship all the prizes to Kathi now, saves him shipping costs. :D
hahaha, be reassured Mr C I'm not going to beat you ;)
I have resisted so far... but perhaps now its time for me to join in the fun...
Go ooooon....
Do it, do it!
I am maintaining a steady 559th place...
If i dont go backwards i will be 'appy
Resistance is futile
hehe...
Resistance is futile...We wish to improve ourselves. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service ours
now you're stealing my lines, and i don't have many good ones :(
That's Amy's line. Although she prefers Resistance is Finnish
I have the same six drivers as usual... my problem is that I can't improve my roster because when I look at the average points per race, I have to sell two bad drivers to get a better one and that ends up with the same average score.
By the way, if you need help picking your drivers, please take a look at my stats from my blog here...
gone from team FP2: Sutil, Alonso, Nakajima, Barrichello.
Purchased Button and Hamilton.
I dislike when the expensive ones are fast, it makes my team small.
