    Yeah! A PPM stream sounds fantastic. I’m also considering dropping NOR this weekend. Moving to RUS. I’d like to be able to switch to Lewis, but that would require a -10 rearrangement unfortunately.
    NOR >RUS
    HUL > MAG.
    sounds about right. Unless Max has a 20 place penalty… but even then… not convinced

      I'm not hot on Max at the moment. Red bull are in the dirt for me. A grid pen will get me thinking but I'm not sure it's worth it currently. Hopefully see you on the stream!

    I think VER will be a pretty good asset with a 10-place grid penalty. With MCL MER 2x NOR MAG TSU GAS HUL and 3 free transfers, I'm planning on dropping GAS to SAR and NOR to VER. I think MCL and MER are quite fast, but VER should be in the mix for a podium. So on average, VER should score about:
    Qualifying: 8 points
    Race overtakes: 10 points
    Race positions gained: 8 points
    Finishing position: 10 points
    Fastest lap: 2 points
    DOTD: 2 points
    That's 40 points! Much better than around 30 from NOR or PIA, give or take a few. But if you're on a 2 premium driver lineup and you're rich, it probably won't be worth moving off something like MCL MER 2x NOR PIA GAS HUL SAR to fund VER for a single race punt. But if you're poor like me with only 116.8M it looks like an obvious pick.

      @@racing1000 I agree that Verstappen is a good option but I'm not convinced I want him past Spa so currently thinking of keeping a better balance in my team for going forward. It depends how many places he drops because nothing confirmed as of time of writing. At least 10 but I think unless it's back of the grid I might still avoid... We'll see

      @@potpanmanF1 Yeah, I think it is very team-dependent. I will probably roll a transfer for no matter who I go with out of Verstappen/Norris/Piastri so I don't think it matters who I choose out of them. Running Verstappen would also require Sargeant, and buying Sargeant seems like the logical step as a budget enabler to afford a 2 premium driver lineup in future races.

    Thanks for the video Tom. I had the exact same team as you at Hungary except BOT instead of ZHO - likewise annoyed that I didn't go with PIA or that NOR didn't just win the race! Unless PIA/MCL and MER look bad in FPs in Spa, think I'll move to MCL, MER, PIA, HAM, HUL, BOT, SAR.
    I'm looking out for 1) straight line speed in FPs, 2) Engine Pens, 3) Weather, as think they are the biggest external factors to influence team selection

    My current team is (HAM/RUS/MAG/HUL/SAR) (MCL/MER) have exactly enough budget to swap RUS > PIA, good move or will I regret not somehow getting NOR in? kinda prefer double B tier drivers for the budget upside as I'm already running MCL which won't grow in budget much and forced to run SAR which is a budget leak

    Great video as always! What are your thoughts on Verstappen as an asset if he does take this engine penalty at Spa, as it looks like he might? I'm weighing the option of going Norris 3x DRS, Verstappen 2x with Haas constructor.... I still desparately need to build budget (currently 116.5) but the appeal of Verstappen starting at the back at Spa is very big.

    hey tom!
    i think you're being a bit hard on the RB guys, mate. I'm not a fan of season averages ... because if you look at recent form - say the last five races - then RIC especially has been doing really well. Almost 6pt per race and +1.9M in budget.
    also... surprised you didn't mention the possibility of VER taking grid penalties and so maybe going with him and 4 solid tier 'C' drivers. not sure if that makes sense points-wise if for example he qualifies 2nd then goes to the back of the grid and fights his way back up to...mibbe 6th?

      @@glenngrant3469 don't worry, I'll discuss VER on Friday. Nothing was widely reported at the time I made this video so I didn't want to spend energy on it tbh.

    Hey Mate, thoughts on this:
    Budget 115.4 (up on last week by 1.5 and still got 204 points)
    Current team:
    Pastri
    Russel
    Hulk
    Sagent
    Hamilton
    Mercedes/Haas
    Thinking of taking a -10 to have this:
    I could drop both merc drivers and go for:
    Piastri
    Hulk
    Sargent
    Norris
    Kmag
    Merc/haas
    But it leaves 6.8m spare. So I could drop Sargent and go for an RB? Which would mean another -10
    What would you do if you were me?
    Sticking with same team isn’t a bad shout either

    I have £116.5m and a NOR + 4 “premium” C-tiers + MCL + MER build… when is the point that you would wildcard? As in, “if you can afford __ without comprising __”? Like I could wildcard this week but would have to downgrade MCL to FER to afford 2 B-tiers

    • @potpanmanF1
      @potpanmanF1  3 месяца назад +1

      Very tough to answer as it depends on how much weight you put into budget building Vs raw points. You could get Russell in that build with Norris but drop the remaining 3 C tiers to the SAR ZHO BOT region (budget drainers) but the other assets will get you the points. I feel you'll get a bit stuck for budget going forward though with that choice. I'd be more tempted to go BBCCC, drop Norris for Piastri and drop a premium C to a dreg. But then you have to rely on piastri matching Norris for the 2x. Maybe practice will throw us some surprises and we have to rethink everything!
