I have to say I am doing something unorthodox, putting all my eggs in one basket, so to say. Also - for my third driver, I am not going to use my emotion. jeez what's going on?!

I'm going big this first race. Let's see what happens. Hope I have enough value left to diversify afterwards.

The League favors wins. That 200 points for winning crushes anything else.

Second place only nets 100 points.

So if you pole and get second you are left with 50 points less than the winner.

To be in contention, you must pick the race winner.

I know the race winner I think the second racer is the toughest to pick using a 3 man team.

Anyone notice that Liuzzi has yet to turn a single lap?

And Narain (Insert last name here, I won't bother trying to spell it!) is just moseying around the track?

Thank you 107%!

But the teams have agreed not to enforce the 107% rule in Australia because it is the first race.

The Stewards always have discretion with that rule as well.

See the talk about this being Weber's last chance at a WDC? He will be taking it to Vettel for the first half of the year, and I'm afraid, will be going wheel to wheel with him.
