Nope, you can pick whoever you want as long as you haven't picked them 4 times.

SO all of this stuff about releasing and holding a driver - Does that mean that only one person can have Schumey at a time?

Okay, I'm now in. The problem was it was keeping last years password and group ID. Hey Rob, last year I came in 3rd...no prize for the top 3? :-)

alright, I'm in... this should be interesting

it may be different this year though, rob, since qualifying is friday/saturday, you probably won't have the practice results to go by... I'm sure there is a practice session before qualifying on friday, but you would have to watch that and then quickly enter your picks...

You can only use a team 4 times too. Some people didn't want to reset their team every race, so they would pick and then use the same lineup for four races. I watched practice results and saw how everyone did last year to pick my team each and every race.

Andreas,

After you use a driver 4 times you just pick another one from the appropriate list.

I'm sure of that.

But I still don't get how this works when selecting a team?

...and while we're at it: What happens after you used a driver/team 4 times? I read you don't get any more points for them (which makes sense), but can you throw them off the rooster or are you stuck with them?

Probably all stupid questions, but I have never played a game like this.

I have a question after reading the rules several times.

You can only use a driver 4 times. OK, got it. Is there any limit on how many times you can use a team?

Thanks for the clarification Drew. You must have a Yahoo id before you can create a F1 id for our league.

You need to start at the URL at the bottom of the page Rob listed. Create your team, accept their terms, join private group, etc.

If you start from the join private group link, third from bottom of this page you will get the error. I got the error several times until I started form the beginning and accepted their terms.

Hope this helps.

The rules are pretty easy and self explanatory if you look at "My Team". Each week you pick an "A" driver, two "B" drivers, and a team. Trick is you can only pick each driver or team 4 times during the year.

Rob, I don't get it: I have a Yahoo ID and after logon my only option is to create a team. There is no place to enter the group ID and pwd.

What am I missing?
