    HOW DOES F1 WORK? :thinkinghmmm::thinkinghmmm::thinkinghmmm:

    It's all about points. First 10 drivers get points for their place. The driver with most points after all races wins.

    1st place gets 25 points
    2nd 18 points
    3rd 15 points
    4th 12 points
    5th 10 points
    6th 8 points
    etc

    There are 10 teams, each team has 2 drivers.
    1. Mercedes

    Every racing weekend has 3 practice sessions (2 friday, 1 saturday), 1 qualifying session (saturday) made of Q1, Q2 and Q3 (5 drivers with worst times gets dropped at the end of Q1 and Q2) and the race (sunday).

    My personal advice is to not bother with practice sessions, they are long and teams are testing different things at different times, so its impossible to judge their pace at this point.

    Races take place all around the world, Europe, Asia, Australia, South and North America.

    Next race: Malaysia GP, Fri 29 Sept - Sun 01 Oct 2017
    cool stuff about the race: https://www.formula1.com/en/championship/races/2017/Malaysia.html

    Yeah I meant Kubica but I hope Alonso gets a decent engine next year
    I would also keep an eye on Williams since they are rebuilding their car, they have Paddy Love and Mercedes engine
    Battle for 3rd car on the grid will be very good next year
