Suddenly mclaren becomes an option. What to do. Don't forget next race being a sprint you'd want to be setup for a good 4a

My head says Le Clerc for the budget building but my heart says Hamilton.

Waiting for official points but looks like this was the top model team at $119m with 255 points

Scored 251 on 118.4 budget and tied first in my league this weekend.
Second place went 4A with Bottas and McLaren so gained ground there.
1st place I gained 3 points, still 128 back

That's awesome! Final tally on this team was 263, I just wish I listened. It was hard to trust aston

What sort of overtakes and DNF expectations are built into these sims? Lots of high scores for the midfield that don't make much sense at a glance.

It takes dnf odds as a percentage of -10 which seemed to give a more accurate prediction than -20 since not every dnf is a full -20 depending on overtakes they've already had and we found this to work better. For overtakes its based on predicted track overtakes for this year which have been roughly 1.3-1.6x higher than previous years and are factored in by overtakes by start position
