The 2012 game is up and running - and there are a few changes this year which is going to be interesting. However we can look at those later.

To join up go to

PFF1 World Championship - Fantasy Formula 1 Competition for Formula 1 Fans

and create a team. If you played last year you can use your old login.

Our League is Sats.co.uk Fantasy F1 League and the game password is london (no capital letter) Our leeague is in the individual private league section as this year I am allowing folks to play two teams in the league. This is optional - you dont have to if you dont want to, but it allows you to try different tactics.



There are 3 levels of play this year

3 different levels of difficulty Amateur, Pro and Expert are available for the contenders of PFF1. It's up to each player, how much time he wants to spend to manage the teams. Amateurs, Pros and Experts take part in one competition.

Prior to race 1 the level of difficulty can be altered unlimited (KERS must be sold, if necessary). After the first race, 5 changes are possible, after race 10 the level of difficulty cannot be altered anymore. Anyone who played last year should be on Pro or Expert



Amateur:

Keeps everything simple


Pro:

The level of last years game

Expert:

The level of difficulty Expert is just for the absolute Formula 1 fan. No assistants are available and the game play is challenging and very time-consuming. The special feature KERS is only available for Experts.


Please read the game rules carefully - there are several important changes this year - including the requirement you use both sets of tyres during the season :D (You must use the alternative set at least 4 times.)

General game rule - you must have been a member of the forum on 1st January 2012 to play. Any player joining who breaks this rule will be removed.

As usual please announce yourself on this thread so we can see who is taking part & I can chase up anyone who took part last year whom is missing :D

Im in with Scotborders F1 - just the one team for now, I may stick another one in later.

Just set yourself up with a scratch team to begin with - unlimited changes are allowed before the first race.

I'm in with another team, 'Anglo French Racing'. Hoping for a 50/50 mix of mechanics, the English ones will sit round having sandwiches and a brew while the French will spend over 2 hours at lunch then shrug their shoulders for the rest of the afternoon!

You dont mention a year he will acheive that...hopefully it will long time away...he dont deserve it once let alone twice, especailly sincehis attitude after he won his first one has been so bad...cocky bugger he is...

On a side line, should there be some form of bonus points for any interview where "for sure" is said.....or how many times Kimi will smile???

For those of you who think Lewis may have lost his focus and become a bit of a 'girls blouse', ponder on this....
