GerardMP was the top scorer in the German Grand Prix round of the Predictions Championship.

Hi 24-point haul moves him into the top 100 in the championship. Arpi_ retains the overall lead, three points ahead of Scunnyman and three more ahead of CyclopsPL. id="more-35649">

GerardMP wins a Lotus DVD box set and Nicolis is the first person to claim the new runners-up prize of two T-Shirts from Unlap – an Official F1 Fanatic T-shirt and a race winner’s T-shirt.

Several players were left to curse Ferrari’s team orders. Edgar mendes came off worse, as he was poised to score 24 points before Felipe Massa was told to let Fernando Alonso past. The change of place left him with 11.

Please note that should the results of the race be changed the Predictions Championship standings will remain the same.
