2020 A NEW DECADE
OF FF1
Really another decade, where did the last one go,
FF1 will now span over four decades and the write
up has been going for 20 years, incredible..
So it only seems a minute ago that I announced last
year's winner but here we are Christmas has come
and gone and all that is left of your selection boxes
is that packet of Spangles (Google it kids), so it must
be time for me to welcome you to FF1
2020 will be a 22 race season, including races in the
Netherlands and Vietnam.
There has been plenty of comings & goings, no
there hasn't we've only had two driver changes and
one of them is a returning driver.
But as with every year there is still some important
questions that still need answering –
Can Pete Lane retain the title or will he disappear
like the rest of us?
After Jamie Henshaw came so close to taking his
third title last season, will someone become the
greatest manager in FF1 history and get title
number three?
How long will it take Vettel to throws his toys out his
pram?
How long will it take Ady Twigg to lose interest in
the season?
Will football be coming home this year??
Well they might not be that important but what is
important is that Fantasy Formula One is about
having a good laugh.
The entry fee is just £3 per team and you’re
allowed to put in as many teams as you like (within
reason).
The scoring is the same as last year and the rules
on the next few pages for those who are new or
have forgot.
The closing date for all entries and money is
Monday 9th March (Monday before the first Grand
Prix).
The prizes are as follows –
A bottle of wine to the winner of each grand prix.
All the money left over in the prize fund after all the
other prizes have been paid for will be divided up as
follows
1st
Place - 50%
2nd
Place - 30%
3rd
Place - 20%
The top three will also receive a medal.

JOKERS
. Each team will have 2 jokers to play during any race in the season, when
played your team will score double points.
. Both jokers MUST be played at two different races during the season, if a
team does not play their jokers by the end of season their jokers will be
played for them automatically.
.To play a joker you must inform Mick Brown or your local representative
no later than the Wednesday night prior to the race on the following
numbers -
Mobile 0785 130 3323
or E-Mail Ilkeston-ff1@ntlworld.com
Note – If you score a negative score with a joker, the negative score will be
doubled.
MISC
Any driver being replaced for any reason apart from being banned, your
scoring will continue with your new driver.
If your driver is banned for a race you will score -100 points for that race,
the engines and chassis will score as normal with the replacement driver
If a team pulls out for any reason (as Marussia and Caterham did) and your
team has an element of that team (driver ,engine or constructor) that
element will score zero points for the rest of the season.
In the event of a tie first and second place prizes will be divided out equally
but the FF1 title will go to the team that has achieved the best position in a
race (as per F1).
There is no limit to the number of teams you are allowed to enter (within
reason)
All decisions by the FF1 committee are final
