Guess which I chose!

Do we know officially if they've got an appeal in?

The question is whether the FIA will stand firm behind the stewards and back them up or rule against them. The problem being that the stewards made so many crap decisions this race that the FIA by association will look (more) inept (than usual) if they if they don't accept the appeal and have their heads up the collective Ferrari arse if they back the stewards.
My favorite race of the year has turned into the biggest joke of the year, especially since Massa hindered another driver last week, but nothing was done about it. A dark day for F1 Cry

I don't hold my breath over this one, thus reflected by my vote Undecided

as bad as I feel for charlie,
There is an appeal in by Mclaren, so you should go by the official results now, and should Mclaren win the appeal change them to reflect it, as the FIA have signed off as
Massa
Heidfeld
Lewis

I'd say save the hassle, and not add this weekend's results until the appeal is heard.

Agreed, if everyone else is happy with this?

Problem is then we may be waiting a while.
Do we need to set up a simv version of the FIA?? Wink

I might have to take on the against argument, the results are official, the FIA have signed them off and as such the race weekend has taken place.
I do want C to get his 30 points. But as a competitor right now I can't see what there is to wait for. Wink

End of the day the race results are official.
You cant have this competition then start changing the results because some people arn't happy with them. (yes I stand to gain a couple of extra points thats what I care about) But I also would be quite happy to see the appeal overturn the results so Charlie gets his 30 points. But until that happens, it's
massa
heidfeld
Lewis

Quite, if the appeal is successful I will deserve my 30 pts. If it isn;t, I got it wrong. Sadly my brain wave at 1155 on Saturday (to put Heidfeld at no 3), didn't include predicting a 25 sec penalty! Grin

And now you've learned your lesson.
Any time you think Lewis will win put a ferrari in first as the FIA will give it to them Lips Sealed

Okay lads, the official results stay as they are.

Massa
Heidfeld
Hamilton

If McLaren win their appeal I'll amend the spreadsheet to the original (podium) result....

...And Charlie will get his 30 pts

Quite right Rob, our little comp is a direct reflection of each and every race. Craig is right, until the result is changed, we have must/should play by the posted result.......however, quite an inspired first result to Charlie.
