The Safety Car

Ladies and Gentlemen,

How are you all today? I'm sure you've all noticed that we haven't seen the safety car this season. A variety of reasons account for this; i.e. careful driving, accidents in reasonable places and drivers not pushing as hard due to the tyres.

With Monaco on the horizon, do you think this trend will continue? With rookies on the grid, I believe it's safe to say, we should see the safety car.

So, let's play a game, can you predict how many times we'll see the safety car this weekend and who do you think will be the first offender. For brownie points, can you also predict the number of times we'll see the safety car? I'll compile the results at the end and the winner will be crowned.

Snide remarks about cars, drivers, teams and conspiracy theories are also welcome.

Many thanks

Is there a deadline for these predictions? Free Practice starts tomorrow so make sure you have your ZDKF1 predictions in by 10 pm tonight.

I think I am right in saying that Bottas is the only driver never to have driven the circuit but I think if he was going to have a clumsy it would be in free practice rather than the race.

In the race I think there will be two safety cars involving,but not necessarily caused by, di Resta and Vettel in seperate incidents.

Made my predictions already. The deadline for this will be just before FP1, so if you haven't made your predictions. Do it now!!!!!!!!!!

Anfield - you were too late for ZDKF1. I think they use your last race predictions with a 20% penalty.

For are own in house comparision I will use the predictions you posted above.

I made a stupid mistake on my pole time. I transposed the numerals and instead of 1:13.89 I posted 1:31.89

It appears I won this competition getting the number of safety cars right as well as 2 of the people involved.

Is "safety car" the right phrase for the safety car ?

It sounds to me like it has been translated from another language.
