It's so funny seeing some of these teams with 27.5 points or 13.5 pts...

Looks like having #1, 4, 5, 9, 16, 18 will net you 678 pts.

I dropped back to a 5 driver lineup because I didn't think I'd score this many points but now I don't have enough $$$ to buy anyone else to get back to 6 drivers if I wanted.

Just an informational post about F1 racers site...

WARNING....

I got hosed this week because of how the site functioned when I used the back button in my browser to navigate after making a driver change...

I removed a driver first and then replaced one. I had just enough money to do it for example the driver I replaced was giving me like 6.9 (he was 7.1) and the one I wanted was 6.9.

After the adding the new driver my team looked as I wanted. Well to navigate for some reason, I used the back button several times and it got to screen with the driver I added on it and when I hit back once more.. it showed my team but WITHOUT the driver I added.

What occurred was when I hit back the last time since that driver was now on my team it showed in my transactions that it REMOVED him... So now I had .20 less and could not get him back. It forced me to make another move so that I could have another driver and get the one I wanted back. I didn't feel I could do well with a 4 person team (although that would not have been the case).

So because I had to make another transaction it cost me like 65 points and several spots in the standing I would have been 11th if the original change took place..

So the message is to DO NOT use the back button to navigate the site when making driver changes.. It may have undesirable results. I was using Goggle Chrome as a browser at that time..

That has happened to me twice while using the refresh button after acquiring a new driver. One of those times it cost me the ability to buy someone who I wanted and had just enough budget to purchase. It is REALLY REALLY frustrating. Sorry to hear that happened to you too.

Sound like the exact same thing except with the refresh button...
