The Final Vote went like this :
1. Formula 1
2. World Rally Championship
3. NASCAR
4. Touring Cars
5. Champ Car
6. IndyCar
7. Motorcycle Racing
8. Formula GP2 / F3000

I'm glad NASCAR had the support to take 3rd assuring it's position for 2007. :D :up:

It was a 3-way tie for the last spot in the 1st poll :
8. GT Racing and Le Mans = 67 votes
tie A1GP Series = 67 votes
tie Formula GP2 / F3000 = 67 votes

In the "Vote-Off", the votes determined a clear winner :
8. Formula GP2 / F3000 = 21 votes
LOST / GT Racing and Le Mans = 11 votes
LOST / A1GP Series = 6 votes

(38 votes)

Is it certain yet that the touring cars will still be the BTCC? I hope it is but there was a bit of a debate about changing it.

I think the vote was that the BTCC would be it next year, beating out the ETCC, WTCC, and DTM

Wasn`t there going to be a new scoring system next year?
Mark
8th December 2006, 12:19
Yes, the races themselves will be won in the same way, however the for the championship you will get 250pts for a win down to 1pt for 200th place.

It sucks! The 2007 points system should combine those from 2005 and 2006. The points scored each race would give the championship classification and the top 50 from each of the 8 championships will get general classification points. It's not my idea, I read it on the old forum, but it's the best I heard yet.

No. I seem to remember we once had all 7 correct, but a perfect score has never been done.

does that mean that the "eight contests" are the only pickems we can have?

and what is the criteria for judging how many pickems to have :?:
Mark

There was a vote last year to choose which competitions to have. I expect there will be a similar vote this year to decide which to have in 2008.
