The GRID TIP betting system:
- You bet on:
- the top 3 drivers (1, 2, 3): the first 3 places in qualifying
(Q) and race (R)
- the safety car (SC): deployment of the safety car during the
race (risky bet)
To bet on the safety car is NOT mandatory but a voluntary option.
You can only bet on "yes" or "no" - both bets
are obviously not possible nontheless mindless.
- the fastest lap (FL): the driver with the fastest lap during
the race (bonus bet)
To bet on the fastest lap is NOT mandatory but a voluntary option
(which makes sense considering that there will be no penalty in
case of betting in the wrong!)
- You can place your bets until the beginning of the corresponding event
(qualifying or race). You cannot change your bets once they are
placed.
(In case of serious accidental erroneous clicks during placement of
your bets you have the possibility to immediately contact the GRID TIP
Admin who can delete your erroneous bet. Please make sure that you follow
this procedure by any means before the start of the corresponding event
- qualifying or race - and take into account that after deletion of
your erroneous bet you have to have enough time to place your new bet!)
The dates and start times of the events can be found on the GRID TIP
web page (see section "news - Formula 1 Schedule").
The GRID TIP scoring system:
- You will get 2 points for each of the top-3 drivers you placed on
the right position.
- You will get 1 point for each of the top-3 drivers you placed on
the wrong position within top 3..
- Who places the safety car bet takes a certain risk and will:
- get 1 extra point if the bet turns out to be correct,
- be penalized with the substraction of 1 point if the bet turns
out to be not correct.
- Who places the fastest lap bet does not take any risk and will:
- get 1 extra point if the bet turns out to be correct,
- get NO penalty if the bet turns out to be not correct.
- To determin the points for the GRID TIP qualifying result the qualifying
result without any penalization regarding the starting grid will be taken
into account.
- To determin the points for the GRID TIP race result the official
race result including after-race disqualifications or penalizations
will be taken into account (= official race result according Formula
1 website).
- The points of qualifying and race of each Grand Prix weekend will
be summed up and form the single GP results.
- If two or more GRID TIPPERs reach the same maximum score for one
single GP weekend none of them will get the GP awarded.
- The single points of each Grand Prix will be summed up to form the
overall score, which is the the current total score of each GRID TIPPER
and is being displayed on the GRID TIP web page together with their single
GP wins.
- If two or more GRID TIPPERs reach the same overall score the amount
of the single GPs (Grand Prix weekends) these GRID TIPPERs managed to
win will be taken into account to decide on the ranking.
- GRID TIP winner is who gets the highest overall score.
- If two or more GRID TIPPERs reach the same overall score at the end
of the GRID TIP season the amount of the single GPs (Grand Prix weekends)
these GRID TIPPERs managed to win will be taken into account to decide
on the GRID TIP winner. If even these are the same (i.e. same overall
score and same amount of single GP winnings) GRID TIP has two or more
winners (why not!)
The GRID TIP appraisals:
- Each year at the end of the GRID TIP season the following achievements
of the GRID TIPPERs will be awarded with certificates:
- the GRID TIP winner/s (Winner's Certificate),
- the best rookie/s, i.e. the GRID TIPPER/s amongst the first-seasoners
with the highest overall score (Best Rookie Certificate),
- the GRID TIPPERs with the highest amount of single GP wins, regardless
of their overall score (Certificate of Excellence),
- the GRID TIPPERs who managed to win at least one single Grand
Prix (Certificate of Appraisal).
