I am now leading the entire F1 Manager league.  Perhaps this is finally my season.

Nah..bad result for me, but I've got an excuse - I firstly thought that the game is supposed to run by another scenario, like the one I have played shortly before: you get your team and then there is a series of virtual races, where the results are almost evntually generated. The n I realised the results will depend on real races, but it was too late, as I have already wasted my whole budget then  :P

Right after the races their server gets real busy and doesn't always work like you would want it to.  Check with it in a while and it will return.

Yeah, thanks, I know I can change the team, so that's what I did now (with the available 4,3m  :D )

Congrats! You and 320 of your closest friends appear to have the same strategy :)

I'm still slapping my forehead, having realized all to late that for the cost of the engine I upgraded to, I could have had BOTH drivers from the same team, which of course pays out more than twice as much for a given result. I have no idea how I missed that. I'm so used to competitive drivers being outside the reach of starting $$ that I didn't check it in detail. Oops. The Burrow Owls will have to retreat to the burrow for a re-grouping & recrimination session. :)

Didn't they have to re-count the points after Trulli's disqualification, by the way? I'm receiving a bit of extra cash in that case together with Glock and Toro Rosso's...
Or is it because I have changed my team already?

You should have received the extra cash today. The big catch is that if you'd already made a change, AND you roll back your team to make a different change, the extra cash is gone. I found this out the hard way. At least it wasn't a whole lot of money, and there's still a chance they'll get it fixed before the database locks tomorrow.

We are currently working very hard on some site updates for the 2010 season. We will come online somewhere in the middle of February.

Just around the corner.

Considering some of the "issues" this operation suffered last year, would it be wise to investigate shifting to the Fantasy F1 program hosted by ITV-F1.com?  I know nothing of it, but have a general feeling it might be better managed.

Thoughts?  ???

Could try this one too:

http://www.f1racemanager.com/

We need to decide and get signing up.  I'll give it a couple of days and then set us up a league somewhere.

Would appreciate feedback.
