F1 Trivia Game 1 Year, 1 Month ago Karma: 1
What? - A trivia game, based on speed and accuracy.
Who? - I'll be running the game, anyone can play.
When? - Whenever I decide to post a new question, but only ever 1 question will be 'live' at a time.
Where? - Send your answers to my inbox on these forums, click on 'Compose' under the Private Messages box at the left side of your screen.
Why? - Because I'm bored at work and it could be fun

That's the gist of it...when I post a question you should send your answer to me, the first 5 people to answer it will receive points in this scheme:

1st - 10 points
2nd - 8 points
3rd - 6 points
4th - 5 points
5th - 4 points

Anyone else getting the answer correct outside the top 5 will receive 3 points. Anyone getting the answer wrong will receive just 1 point regardless of when they send it in, because they have at least made an effort.

There may also be a bonus element to a question, which will simply give 1 extra point to anyone answering it correctly.

The 1st question will come at some point today...

FYI the question will close after either 6 people answer OR 5 days passes by, whichever comes first. 1 person has answered...however they are incorrect, so the win is still up for grabs.

Q1 - How many drivers on the 2009 Hungarian GP grid had an F1 podium finish to their name at the time of this race?

A - 15; Buemi, Alguesari, Sutil and Nakajima had all failed to score podiums, whilst Massa was not on that particular grid hence there were 15 drivers there with podium finishes.

Standings

1st - Josh Overhill - 10 points
2nd - Keith Herbert - 8 points
3rd - Pip Hammond - 6 points
4th - Daniel Naylor - 1 point

Congrats to Josh on winning the 1st round! Next question coming up at some point soon...

Re:F1 Trivia Game 1 Year ago Karma: 1
Yeah, I answered 16 instead of 15, so I was wrong. I'd forgotten that Massa was not on the grid, and therefore counted incorrectly. At least I got a point for giving it a go...

Still 2 more days left to answer...3 people have sent their guesses in so far, but it is apparent that this one is causing more trouble than the 1st one!
