Q: Can I change my pick after submitting? A: Yes! Change it as many times as you want before qualifying starts.
Q: What if I miss the deadline? A: You score 0 points for that race, but you don't lose any picks. They're all still available.
Q: Can I pick the same driver multiple times? A: No, each pick can only be used once per season.
Q: Do bonuses apply if I score 0 base points? A: No. Rarity and streak bonuses ONLY apply when your base points are greater than 0. A DNF or missed pick means 0 total points.
Q: How is the rarity percentage calculated? A: Number of people who picked that option ÷ total people who made picks. Example: 5 picked Haas, 100 made picks = 5% picked Haas.
Q: Does my streak break if I miss the deadline? A: Yes, because you scored 0 base points. Your streak resets to 0.
Q: Do I get a bonus for scoring in just 1 race? A: No, you need at least 2 races in a row to get streak bonuses. A "streak" means consecutive success!
Q: What if my driver gets replaced due to sickness or injury? A: You score the points earned by the replacement driver.
Q: Are teams or drivers better picks? A: Teams can score more base points (two drivers) but are usually more popular (lower rarity bonus). Mix your strategy!
