A championship is ten races. Each race asks for one name from a list. Give the obvious answer and you scrape into P10. Find a forgotten one and you take the win. You have 30 seconds a race.
Ten championships to warm up with, open any time.
A new championship opens every day at midnight UK time. Everyone gets the same ten races, so scores compare. All answers cover seasons up to the end of 2025.

Each race asks for one answer. Rarer answers score more: P1 scores 25, then 18, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2 and 1 point for P10, the most obvious answers. A wrong answer finishes outside the points, running out of the 30 seconds is a DNF, and skipping is a DNS; all three score 0. Ten races make a championship, so the best possible score is 250.
180 or more: Dominant champion. 150: Champion. 125: Title contender. 100: Podium regular. 75: Second driver at a leading team. 50: Midfield. 25: Backmarker. Under 25: Pay driver.
By how likely other players are to think of each answer. The least obvious answers take the top positions. It is a judgement, so it won't always match your gut feeling.
Where the driver lined up on the grid for the race, after any penalties, not where they qualified. Pole position follows the record books: the driver who started first.
The main World Championship races only. Sprint races don't count unless a question says so, and the Indianapolis 500 never counts. Teammate questions go back to 1981.
Everything runs to the end of the 2025 season. The 2026 season will be added once it finishes.
Not very. A surname on its own usually counts, small typos are accepted, and accents don't matter. If a name could mean two answers, you'll be asked to add a first name.
Every day at midnight UK time. Everyone gets the same ten races, so scores can be compared. Past championships stay playable, and the pre-season ones can be played any time.
Email [email protected] with the championship, the race and what you think is wrong. Every report is checked against the records.
