I looked at the numbers and compared the 45m and 40m strategy teams. Let's say you have a perfectly-picked 40m team and a perfectly picked 45m team across the seasons (in other words, all values in both teams are perfect and constant the whole season; the only difference is one guy picked 45 and the other picked 40 before Bahrain). If both teams' drivers' rise in value equally, how will it ever be possible for the 40m to catch the 45m? They can't. I still don't understand the two-tier league design this year. I'm paying attention to other 40m teams. Either way, I GOT CRUSHED last night because of HAM's pit management (and his cavalier shot at ALO) and Red Bull's continued inability to get their equipment tuned enough to finish a FREAKIN' GP. I hope VETTLE is ragging at his tuning team all the way to Malaysia. Get your act together RED BULL!!!! You have a killer chasis, but you can't get a winner across the checker.

I'm not going to drop Lewis.. Nothing that happened this race was his fault (except maybe getting too aggressive and crashing at the end). Qualifying was the team's fault, bringing him in for a 2nd pit was also the team's fault.

Up until the last 1 or 2 laps he was amazing.

Did you watch the race last night? Vettle tried to get 1 more lap out of the car even though he knew there was a braking problem. Brakes completely failed on the lap he was going to pit on. Also, Pretty sure Webber's car held up pretty well. RBR is going to have a really strong showing this season.

Lewis wouldn't have crashed if he hadn't gone to the pit

Yep, he probably would've finished second, possibly even first.

Lewis will hold his value better than anyone in The League.

Here's why: The majority of the players in the Fantasy Racers games are in England. They are very forgiving of Lewis.

Last year - when he sucked - he never dropped below 12.0 M.

He is worth keeping until you can trade him for a better option.

If you have Alonso and Vettel - which you should - who are you going to trade Lewis for? Webber? Rosberg? Schumacher? I don't think so.

Hey Alonso, thanks for crashing into Schumi, you DOUCHE. Good thing JB won or else my weekend would've been a total waste.

Dana,

Completely agree with what you said about Alonso, Massa, and Hamilton.. That's why they were my team this week I think I may hang on to them for Malaysia.
