F1 Fantasy Fuel

And that’s a wrap! 272 #F1Fantasy points from the #AbuDhabiGP 🌍 rank 413 📈 323! 16th in 🇦🇺 Thrilled to be into the top 500 after a DNF-filled 2024 disaster It’s amazing to play amongst these brilliant strategists and share the sport we love This season is one to remember

@CanadianThor03 Perhaps with Antonelli you would lean more heavily toward the first option? Because you might be able to reach that lineup with only a -10 or -20 (I’d still only Wildcard to save a -30 considering how many races left - lots more potential opportunities to use the chip)

@F1FantasyFuel I have the same issue but I have ant instead of russel. Hopefully someone says something smart here lol

#F1Fantasy Team Selection for 🇯🇵 Option 1: Full points 📈 VRB, RUS, LEC, BEA, BOR ➡️ MER, ANT, COL, LAW, PER Wildcard Option 2: Full budget 💰 LIN, BOR ➡️ LAW, COL 2/2 free transfers Plans to 3x in Miami Option 3: 50/50 ⚖️ BOR ➡️ PER Can either 3x or take a -10 for MER FER

@paper_champion1 At this point, chips are just bad luck in general 😅

@F1FantasyFuel I ran the same LL team and was also disappointed with 481 - I think because it is only about 60 more than I would have got with my underlying team (which has 2x ANT). LL never goes to plan for me!

481 #F1Fantasy points from the 🇨🇳 GP 🏁 +2.1M ➡️ 105.4M 🌏 rank 8043 LL super promising after Saturday, but a few things went wrong on Sunday (ahem, ahem, McLaren) and it turned out 3x was the play Can't believe I've scored 481 points and walking away slightly disappointed 😅

@kurayss18 I'd say LIN, BOR ➡️ BEA, OCO on the first team, which will set you up perfectly to build budget in Japan and in Miami during LL, while still scoring good points in Japan. For the second team, I don't think you'll be able to fit in ANT, perhaps BOR ➡️ LAW and roll a transfer?

@F1FantasyFuel walked away with 384 points with this team w/o chips! 321 for the second 💔 need a good team for japan so i can LL in miami. for the first team im thinking of swapping LIN/LAW and BOR for a double haas. for the second, i want kimi on it but not sure if my cost cap will allow 😔

@DannyWLY I like that too - it sets up well for big points for the Miami sprint. The only problem is it's just quite inflexible, especially if something goes wrong. With BOR ➡️ PER, you can roll a transfer and take a -10 to bring it in for Miami.

@F1FantasyFuel thanks bro! I'm thinking about using wildcard to go ANT,MER,FER this week. Is it too aggressive?

@Joeby182 That lineup looks ideal for Japan - perfect for budget but still solid for points. Assuming you’re rolling a transfer, you’ll be able to move to the mega ANT, MER, FER lineup for Miami 💪

@F1FantasyFuel I'm keeping this for the next race, only one change is Lindblad for Lawson, then next race having Merc and Ferrari with either Hamilton or Antonelli if I can afford. Could spend a few points and get Merc/Ferrari now but wouldn't be ideal. Would you force it or not?

@DannyWLY For Japan, I’m planning on LIN, BOR ➡️ COL, LAW. Continuing the budget focus is the key 🔑 Then potentially 3x RUS and 2x ANT for the Miami sprint weekend. The other option would be BOR ➡️ PER and roll, then move to an ANT, MER, FER structure for Miami.

@F1FantasyFuel I have the same team. what's ur plan for this week?

@RebeccaF1_FTSY No 3x unfortunately, but my T2 scored 421 points with no chip and rose by 3.3M 💪 T3 is going full budget-building for mini-leagues later in the season

@F1FantasyFuel I know it’s mad isn’t it? I think it was the BOR drop that was the most annoying for me. Did you play 3x on any team. I did in my T3 and it out scored my LL team.

@rrmrampuri @AndyTails Yeah, very big points but also high points for non-LL teams, so not such a great delta. 3x users are having a great time - oh well, in fantasy sometimes things get messy!

@AndyTails @F1FantasyFuel We still got great points even though DNS for Norris sucks.. Still much better than my last year's LL and double DSQ for Ferrari 😐

🚨 Verstappen DNF! Looks like an electrical issue - very unlucky for LL users with VER, it was looking so good! #F1Fantasy

@AndyTails Me neither - it looked like the right play, 3x stole the spotlight this time, but it’s a long season and we go again in Japan 💪

@F1FantasyFuel No regrets from me.

@AndyTails True - that 25 point difference is still nice for them! Just quite unfortunate for LL this weekend - 3x was the play. But it’s the non-chip users who are really suffering 🫣

@F1FantasyFuel They still get 25 points ish more than I got with NOR... I don't feel bad for them!

The small Kimi grows to Grande Kimi! 🇮🇹 ❤️ The youngest polesitter in history wins his first Grand Prix 🥹 #F1

Could we have a safety car now please? Surely some sort of incident or mechanical issue? 🙏 It would bring plenty of extra spice into this race with fresh tyres for Ferrari and Russell and a bunched pack 🌶️ 😋 #F1

@gaz49ers It’s just F1 Fantasy sometimes 🤷‍♂️ I think LL is still doing well compared to non-chip teams due to the BOR DNF and MER/FER with dominance with lots of overtakes too.

@F1FantasyFuel Why did I listen to the LL advice 😭

Is it bad that I'm sort of hoping for the Haas cars to crash into each other to help my #F1Fantasy team? I mean, NOR and PIA both already DNFed for LL teams and BEA and OCO are already getting loads of overtakes...

@F1FantasyEuan Heheh I'm the opposite 😏

Me to this Colapinto, Ocon, Bearman, Verstappen, Gasly group for F1 Fantasy

@29_ChristosLiam Ooooh yeah 🔥

@F1FantasyFuel Antonelli my 3x Driver Colapinto i bought in this round - you beauty

If you'd told me we'd have Antonelli P1, Colapinto P2, Ocon P3, Verstappen P14 and a McLaren double DNF by Lap 12, I'd have thought you were losing your marbles. I guess that's just Formula 1 😅 #F1

Maybe it's only damage limitation after the NOR DNF, but the overtakes for Ferrari and Mercedes are looking great for LL at the moment! #F1Fantasy
