Fantasy GP 2010 - Three Rounds to Go...
- Published on Oct 19th, 2010 by Adam MilleneuveIt's been an epic 2010 grand prix season and in turn, so has Badger's Fantasy GP game with multiple race winners and with three rounds still to play, anyone in the top 50 or so could be 2010 champion... So who have you chosen for to have in your team for the final few races? To help you out, here's Badger's rundown of the stats at this late stage in the season.
With over 2500 players for each grand prix this season, there have some superb victories as well as displays of sheer bad luck as people try and predict the podium, fastest lap and pole position for a GP weekend, that on top of the fact that each player has a team with 3 cars and 3 drivers (within budget) means there have been near-endless permutations and the final three races will really matter. The image to right shows you the Top 50 leaderboard as it stands right now (you can see the rest if you're registered here)
Now, here are some handy stats for those keen to make up the difference on their rivals at this late stage - we can't tell you everything, that just wouldn't be fair, but here's some data for you to make use of...
First up, here's the team and driver popularity - i.e. how many players have each team and driver in their FantasyGP team - not surprisingly Vettel and Red Bull are very popular, but also look at Petrov and Rosberg, they're much higher than you would expect...

Ok and now here's some more interesting data for each driver, their points, bonus points in the game and their value (relative to their FantasyGP cost) arranged in best to worst value. It may help you rethink your Fantasy team line-up.
*this was Chandhok and others too
Definitely food for thought, especially when the most popular driver (Vettel) is also only the 7th best value driver. And here's the equivelant for the teams - remember, only drivers, not teams score the bonus points for moving up from starting to finishing positon.
Ok, so that's your lot for now, make of it what you will - we hope it helps with those critical team changes ahead of the final run of races and best of luck to all those playing - there's still three Badger Trophy Mugs up for grabs...

Being in 50th, I'd be very chuffed if I make up the 155 points needed to even stand a chance of winning (assuming the guy at the top changes his line-up to Lotus, Hispania, Virgin)
But here's hoping (although your tables have kind of exposed my tactics!)
Come on I Corridori Wacky!!! (They are to my other team The Wacky Racers what Torro Rosso are to Red Bull - except my team seem to perform a lot better!!) [don't worry I paid the extra to enter an extra team!]
Sorry Chris, I wish you luck but as I'm in second, I really hope you don't get too close haha
No Chance of me getting anywhere near mate. I got all predictions right last time bar fastest lap and stayed 90th ! Although I just logged on and discovered I was now 89th without a race! I guess someone had more than their 5 changes and lost some points. Good luck to you mate. I hope you get P1. two from our mini league in P1 during a season wouldn't be bad would it !
I think I got up to 23rd at one point or was it 32nd? If I can make the top 50 now I'd be happy. Korea looking hard to predict.
Well I went from 16th to ~250th inside four races with some truly awful results (mainly Hamilton's DNFs). Seriously it's all to play for still, good luck guys
Oh dear! What a disaster - mind you, I'm only 310th or so and I developed the game...
I'm 1037th place. Top half of the table at least, that'll do me fine, just fine.
Could've been higher if the Red Bulls didn't go out of the race. Ah well, better luck next year.
