Hello it's me again.

I've been compiling the Predictions points (and waiting on the stupid Overtake King award), but I'm come across a dilemma. The "Fewest Racing Laps" question.

My dilemma is this come in two parts: The fewest racing laps were completed by a) Nikita Mazepin (a driver you could choose in the survey) and b) Reserve drivers (whom you could NOT pick in the survey).

So we could:
A) include Mazepin AND reserve drivers and just give people points accordingly
B) include Mazepin (because he was an option) but NOT reserve drivers (because you couldn't pick them)
C) exclude all of them and only include permanent drivers

Let me know your thoughts. I'm leaning towards excluding all but permanent drivers. 

Oh hello! In finishing off the ol' Predictions Challenge, I need to court your opinion on three key questions. So, please let me know what you think on the form here:

Hello all!

Alexander Keys is doing some research on how the Sprint Format affects fan enjoyment of an F1 weekend and is looking for people to opine on his survey. If you'd like to take part in his study, you can fill out the survey here:  https://loughboroughssehs.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dn8RmEapHMSrhtk 

This survey is independent of me, I'm just trying to draw a wider audience to it! 

If you want to send in emails for the Miami Fantasy Takeover show I'll have Tom McCluskey (Tommo) on with me to do all the pre-race chat and Fantasy picks. If you've got anything you want to ask, chainbear@gmail.com with 'Miami Takeover' in the subject line and I'll pick out some good ones! 

I'm taking emails for the Imola Fantasy GP Takeover show. I'll have Elizabeth Blackstock on, who's an auto journalist and also co-author of an upcoming book on Rich Energy's tumultuous and sus relationship with F1. She's much more solid on US motorsports than I could hope to be, too. 

So any emails you want to write in about anything: the season so far, Imola, the Fantasy GP game or Elizabeth's hot topics, send them to chainbear@gmail.com with "Imola Takeover" somewhre in the subject line!

Thanks! 

Hello friends!

Here's a call to get emails and questions or whatever you want in before the Australian Fantasy GP Take Over with Peter Leung. Got a highly modified track ahead of us after we return to Australia after 3 years. Also the driver pricing on Fantasy GP has been changed!

Get your emails into chainbear@gmail.com with the subject "Australia Takeover". Cheers! 

Just a reminder if you want to send in Q's, comments, whatevers after the Bahrain GP for the Fantasy GP video, please email chainbear at gmail.com. 

I'll start doing these posts only after the GP in future so won't clog your timeline! 

Hi all,


We'll be doing some more viewer correspondence for the Saudi GP Takeover video. Would love to hear from you, comments or questions. 


My guest will be Deanna from Relapped ( https://www.youtube.com/c/RelappedF1/playlists ). Deanna watches and reacts to current F1 races but is also gradually watching all the races from 1979 forward so if you're intrigued about that or want to ask questions/convey thoughts related to any F1 goings-on or post-Saudi thoughts. We'd love to hear it.


Send emails by Monday lunchtime at the very latest [chainbear at gmail.com] and please put [Saudi Takeover] somewhere in the subject line! 

Hello all,

Hope you're all enjoying testing. I'm starting a new series on the channel before every race where I'm getting someone on (different guest every week) to chat with about the upcoming race weekend. There's... a bit more to it than that, but you'll find out next week when it comes out. This week I've got the excellent Dre Harrison on from Motorsport101

Anyway, in the spirit of trying things out I was considering reading some correspondence from the viewers. So if you want to drop me a (short!!) email with [Bahrain Preview] as the first bit of the subject line I -MIGHT- read a couple out with the guest. Comments or questions welcome. I'm definitely going to favour interesting, witty, brief emails over anything else and will only do a few at most. It's all a bit 'trying things out' at the moment.

If the 'viewer correspondence' bit works as planned it'll be an ongoing amusing part of the series. We'll see!

EDIT: I should note, I'll use the name on your email unless you want me to call you something else (please let me know)

chainbear at gmail dot com for emails to me and Dre for next week, by Sunday please!
