Top score was 1198 o_O

I tied with you for 2nd on 1146, losing Alonso didn't do us any favours.

Great to see you and @Wolffy84 sitting 1st & 2nd in the comp. (y)
Yeah I actually thought Alonso would impact the score a bit more so I'll take that. Enjoying that you've now added a 2nd weekly to your 2 weekly wins this season! The 2nd for me is a PB, would love to pinch a weekly win in the last few rounds.

Haha that has to be the goal now surely - deliver a 1-2 for the forum

Looking at teams above me and even in the top 10 they do not have all the big players.
Yep, I'm still a few mil off. I can make a team which features only top-3 teams, but that team won't have 2 Red Bulls. I might not get there before seasons end and that's okay, Alonso/Norris are generally safe enough to sit at D4

Unlike last year, there is now a rotating mix of RB, Ferrari & Merc along with their 6 drivers who on any race can fill the top spots.
That's not even worrying about the odd wild card performance of one of the lower ranked drivers/teams having a good race and getting a good haul of points.
Just cross your fingers and hope you have the right 4.

Max as C has been good, but it only takes 1 DNF to shake things up points wise.

So knowing that @Wolffy84 has a few balls in the air I am happy to share breakevens with the community. We have compared notes, and Wolffy's are more accurate than mine owing to using a more complex formula to better take into account the weekly movement in the magic number. That said, mine are usually pretty good to within 2-3 points.
From now on if Wolffy's unable to post by say Thurs night/Fri morning I'll step in and hopefully what I put up will still be a decent guide for decision making!

Drivers: Albon -6*, Ricciardo 12, Tsunoda 12, Gasly 14, Schumacher 15, Magnussen 19, Zhou 20, Latifi 22, Bottas 25, Norris 26, Leclerc 32, Stroll 35, Vettel 44, Russell 47, Ocon 62, Alonso 63, Hamilton 65, Perez 88, Verstappen 126, Sainz 132

Teams: Williams 4, Haas 20, Alpha Tauri 21, Alfa Romeo 31, Mclaren 35, Mercedes 68, Aston Martin 70, Alpine 81, Ferrari 91, Red Bull 141

*Assumes Sportdeck treats Monza as a DNP for Albon - if they capture a donut instead, his breakeven climbs to 18.

Thanks for posting these. They look pretty good.

Also, it looks like the end of F1 for Goatifi...

RB to Merc to fund Alonso to Hamilton for me. Unless there's a big red flag in P3 unlikely I'll change plans given P2 is run at the same time of night as qualy and race
