PWP: Reflecting on Suzuka

Suzuka brought rain showers which in turn delivered a tough race to call correctly – not just for those on the pit wall, but also for our Pit Wall Predictions players.

One player kept their cool to deliver a top score for the Japanese Grand Prix round of 35 points out of a possible 40 – great effort!

Find out how you got on as we reflect on Suzuka.

Sadly for Alex, his race was over just after it had begun, meaning he did not make a pit stop, something that just 1% of players foresaw.

Nicky made his first tyre change under the early red flag, meaning his first pit stop was undertaken within 10 laps which 20% called correctly.

A further 31% would nail the position from which Nicky made our first stop – our Canadian was P15 when the red flag was flown. As Nicky was our sole runner by this stage, 66% of players earned points for saying he would be the first Williams driver to stop.

In total we made two pit stops during the Grand Prix – the first under the red flag and the second being the excellent call to bring Nicky in to put on the intermediates and 25% of players correctly predicted the total.

There were two periods behind the Safety Car and 27% of our fans picked up points here.

Finally, both of our drivers’ races ended on intermediate tyres, with 28% getting this right for Alex and 29% spot on for Nicky.

There are four rounds left to go in 2022 leaving us with 160 points to play for – will you finish your campaign on a high? Our United States Grand Prix round will go live on Friday afternoon (BST).
