One driver suffers big loss on Christine's Rankings
In which poker games and insured thumbs are the basis of points
Published by Christine Blachford

We're back with another look at Christine's Rankings - the only ranking system on the internet that is definitively based on what kind of mood I'm in on a Monday. This week has been exceptionally quiet in terms of F1 news, but that hasn't stopped our drivers getting on with things and giving me plenty to peruse. Here are my rankings for this week.
Movements for Week 13
- +1 Karun Chandhok: +1 for Lou who liked that he appears to live in a regular old housing estate.
- +1 Timo Glock: +1 for rocking the cycling look.
- +1 Rubens Barrichello: +1 for taking on tough competition.
- +2 Jaime Alguersuari: +2 for being the latest driver to start going on about poker.
- +1 Bruno Senna: +1 for promoting the SennaVive campaign.
- -10 Fernando Alonso: -10 for insuring his thumbs and getting headlines for no reason.
