🔥 F1 FANTASY HOT TAKES 🔥 Tonight (Monday), I'm recording a video with @ZachGP_, and we need YOUR Early-Season Overreactions to this game we all love. No take is too bold! We will react to the best ones in the episode that will be out later this week! P.S. Cut off is probably around 6:30 pm UK time!

@GoatMessi1991 Yeah im in the same boat especially as for me it would be my wildcard move so im gonna wait until these teams dont have to have a Cadillac driver and go from there!

@ZachGP_ I can afford it with LIN + LAW + COL and PEREZ . All assets can rises in prices except if they dnf . The problem is just perez who is very risky .

So after China for anyone who didnt Limitless and had all budget gainers I think the no brainer call is a LL in Japan whilst everyone still doesnt have ANT/FER/MERC teams as this will be the final race week where it could be the case!

@RebeccaF1_FTSY Yeah its scary times its annoying the points output compared to others could be huge cause thats the only thing keeping me interested in it right now! Its a real tough cookie

@ZachGP_ True - not sure I’d want him in my team - not after getting stuck with the bottom of the barrel assets towards the end of last year

@RebeccaF1_FTSY I dont know how much we can call Perez a budget builder though😂 I dont think I could risk it for a chocolate biscuit to run him after Cadillacs issues so far but it could be a huge call if it works out!

@ZachGP_ I think I have one team I could do that on - no budget losers 🤞

@MikaSharma7 I think 100% is the right call! Looks like its the final race before the a lot of managers swap over to have ANT/MER/FER which is closer to the LL teams so the delta is there!

@ZachGP_ The main Q leading up to Japan, for those with Limitless left imo, is will people take one 0.2m, or most likely 0.6m, price drop (i.e. Bortoleto) to activate the chip at a circuit that should not yield too many overtakes (Spoon Curve, Astemo chicane, T11 Hairpin, T1 = main spots)

So for Japan even with the maximum price increases each weekend being at 106.6 million the ANT MER FER teams are not doable without a budget decreaser! Japan up next feels like potentially the last week of 1 A constructor teams and then everyone will move over to 2 A constructors

@worldmoodApp Probably the best time now as anytime after that most people will have both MERC and FER in their teams!

@ZachGP_ Only used 3x now Maybe going for LL next weekend

POINTS ARE IN! 481 for Team 1 using LL and 426 on Team 2 with no chips used! Overall pretty happy but we go into Japan with 105.4 in budget on Team 1 which is not enough yet to go ANT/MER/FER so big decisions ahead of us! GLOBAL RANKS: TEAM 1: 8043th TEAM 2: 105631th

So to reiterate you can get to these teams for the ANT/MER/FER teams! Does Perez put you off these teams or if you have enough (106.5M) For Bearman as well is that enough to push you through to holding Perez? I can afford the ANT/COL/LIN/LAW/PER but I think I wont be doing that!

@kirev_alexander Should be fine a lot of people myself included have made team 3 anti F1 Fantasy😂 so you are on level pegging with a lot!

@ZachGP_ really, I have only entered two teams could be a mistake but my team one is 2.5K rn

So luckily I can use team 2 for global Leagues this time round in F1 Fantasy because right now my team 2 is on 374 points without a chip😂 that was the play all along definitely.....

@williamaubrey7 Yeah thats crazy! Well Done!

@ZachGP_ 464 with no chips on team 1…! Ridiculous weekend 😅

@eddyvanjones Fair play you can run one team!

@ZachGP_ No budget decreaser here?

@kirev_alexander This year you can! So works a little different!

@ZachGP_ You can’t win any prizes with team 2

@FPL_Glitch Yeah so no budget yet that can run one without budget decreasers

@ZachGP_ Ant / mer / fer is doable, but u mean to also have some decent tier B drivers? Not the ones that keep dropping in budgets right?

@maligec_matej Completely agree! Could have been better but could be a lot worse when others use it!

@ZachGP_ Limitless was still a good option today. Yes, the delta between normal teams may not be as high in the future race weeks, but still we may see the pecking order shuffle and other uncertaintiea in the future. I'm happy I played it and not worry about it for the rest of the year.

After all that chaos! Limitless in team 1 still got a 148 delta to my normal team so a good race there and team 2 got 423! We are not going to get everything absolutely spot on everytime so I will take that EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK! NOW TO WAIT FOR THE OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION!

I think that's the big sign now though for ANT/MER/FER teams heading forward! Antonelli can hold his own and Ferrari and mercedes constructor points are insane!

@kalamburai Definitely but I think those are far and few between so im ok with that!

@ZachGP_ I think the winners are 3x chip users this week, especially the ones that did 3x on ant
