One of my colleagues in the office has run a Fantasy Formula 1 competition every year for as long as I can remember (i.e. since I have been with the company, so at least nine years). Now that I am located back in the office, after being seconded around various other sites for the last four years, I was invited to join in again this year.
Initially I was a little less than keen as I have not been an avid follower of Formula 1 for the last few years. In the days of Mansell, Prost, Senna, Damon Hill etc I did follow the racing closely but over the years I have found Formula 1 becoming more and more clinical and risk adverse. Overtaking became rare and races were being resolved in the pits. Also I became more involved in Motorcycle Sport especially during the Carl Fogarty glory years.
However I remembered that my stepsons were still avid Formula 1 followers, so I thought it would be a good thing to come up with some teams with them. They were very happy to join in, especially as I was putting up the entry fee!
So for 2006, Team 'Am I Bothered' comprises of:
Best Team (going for the most points prize):
Driver 1 - Raikkonen
Driver 2 - Klien
Driver 3 - Gene
Chassis - Red Bull
Engine - Honda (Team Honda)
Wooden Spoon Team (going for the least points prize):
Driver 1 - Hiedfeld
Driver 2 - Rosberg
Chassis - Williams
Engine - BMW
