I know I'll be sticking with last year's set up and changing my driver lineup regularly. It makes it a lot more interesting and it's fun to work some strategies.

I thought it was just individual teams that do?

This year there are 2 different types of team you can create. You can start with a 45.0m but not be able to change your drivers once the season gets underway, or you can have a 40.0m budget and make as many changes as you like throughout the year. All teams will be competing with one another, regardless of strategy adopted. For full details of the differences between these options, please read the how to play page.
You may be right.

When I went to set up the league, however, it asked me to choose again.

I will look into it.

+1.

You hit the nail on the head dude.

If you're stuck with the same drivers, it's a hit or miss. You could either run away with it or hit the bottom of the barrel.

Well, the problem I see with the 45M limit is that you can maybe get 6 drivers max and they'll all be bottom of the barrel drivers that you'll be stuck with all season. If you know how to work the system with the initial 40M limit, you can pretty easily get up to the 9 driver cap and have them all be the best of the best with money to spare. There were quite a few people who did that last year.

No changes would make for a boring league....

Much less banter I would guess as nothing would change week to week except the scores... I agree that many would be less engaged...

Oh and here is a quick picture of what I picked up this week... I will post more when my wheels arrive in a few weeks...

1996 TT with 16K miles... Sweeeeet.....

Look out Hamilton... I may lap you now...

And Dana... Please no mishaps like last season.. It was never the same without you..
