Hello, all 2019 Formula 1 players,
I would like to thank those players who have confirmed their participation for 2020 this week. The season is disappointingly, but sensibly, on hold for now. Entry fees collected so far are being held on account.
Please stay tuned to the news, and the messages from the Prediction Challenges! web site, as to when we can once again enjoy Formula 1 racing and our game.
Please stay healthy!

While five of the eight matchups feature unanimous choices to advance, our game will feature three matchups which may make a big impact on standings once the round is completed: PSG vs. Dortmund, Atalanta vs. Valencia and Tottenham vs. Red Bull Leipzig all have at least three players picking them to top their opponents. Our wide variety of scorelines in all eight matchups will make for some late-game drama, as well.
Enjoy the football, and good luck!
