Any ideas on how to spend my remaining 10 trades over the remainder of the season?

Please tell me you did this!
Nope. Shame too. Cost me 103 points and I'd be 3rd overall if I had.

Scored 1,016 which was good enough for 29th for the week. Moved up one spot to 8th overall. But caught up 50 points on first and now just 120 points behind the leader.

In terms of trades, I've not got about $16.5M to spend on a 4th driver so can start looking more at performance than break even. Having said that, likely trading Norris to either Perez or Leclerc as both are cheap.

Don't. You have the best team (statistically) one can have. Only reason to trade from here is race-specific (if leclerc/perez look better than norris in practice for example) or if you're looking to take advantage of a low breakeven to boost emergency cash (but even then I'd be prioritising points over emergency cash at this stage)

Spewing. But you're still in good shape, 120 away and with a better team

Think I'll just go Max, Lewis, Checo, Lando and run with that the rest of the year. I'm already committed to fading Bottas and those are the next best options all else being equal.

Speaking of Bottas... He's taking a sixth engine this round, Vettel and Russell also taking penalties.

Yep same here. Leclerc to Perez for me. I could go Norris/Leclerc to Bottas/Vettel but don't think Vettel makes up enough places to make it worthwhile, and as you've said already committed to fading Bottas.

Just caught up on the race myself, absolutely brilliant from both of them. I've got myself off Twitter and stopped reading comments on articles (okay, I need to do better at that second one!) because "fans" of one or the other are doing their best to spoil the experience of just appreciating one of the great sporting rivalries I've had the pleasure of witnessing.

1,074 for me this round. Brought in Perez which worked out well (3rd highest scoring driver and added good money, particularly compared to the McLaren drivers).

Moved up 3 spots to 6th overall. Currently 130 points behind the leader.
