UPDATES AND NEWS
September 24 - RocketRob pointed out, correctly, that we awarded Lance Stroll points for last week's race in Singapore. A little spreadsheet goof caused it and has been corrected. They also pointed out that some of the laps completed looked incorrect. Some outlets have reported that Bottas, for example, completed 55 laps. However the Formula 1 website, as well as the FIA website show 51 laps for Bottas. Since the replay of the race on F1TV didn't show the laps completed, we're going with the FIA/F1 information.
For this week, RocketRob moved into first place overall!
