But having lost your points at pupikgate, surely you will start the season with #36 on your avatar?


And to the lucky starter of the competition - this website never failed me 👍

Massa: *whining*Rubens, they said Kimi is number one and I have to let him pass me!

Rubens: It's ok son, you'll get used to it.
 
Oops, forgot to lock the pupikgate.

Who let the dogs out?
 
It does help if there's something slightly unusual, striking, historic, or silly about the photo. Photos consisting of only driver with a semi-blank stare doesn't really inspire captions.

Rubens: Got your nose.

Filippe: Got your keys!

Rubens: D'oh!

Rubens fakes a terminal illness so the Make-A-Wish foundation will grant him his wish of hanging out with a F1 driver that actually has a chance of winning a race.
 
Sorry for the delay chaps, and I'm afraid I have some bad news - I'm not going to be able to run this comp this season... not in the same way as it was done last year, since it is too time consuming (believe it or not).

So, please PM me if you are interested in taking it over this year. In order to maintain the thread as it was done last year, it will take atleast one maybe two half-hours of your time per week.

(n.b. Only previous participants need apply - also preference will be given to Premium and Staff members)
 
Same here... it's bad timing for me, as I start a new job and move house next week and won't have online access at all for a while. And when I do, I'm going to be very pushed for time in the next few months. Unfortunately I have been given a real job now that means I'm going to have to do a bit less fannying about :P
 
I'd like to run it, as its one of the few things that give me any association with GTP anymore; but I have to admit my time on GTP is less and less with each passing week.

Work blocks GTP about 90% of the time, and of course, real-life concerns take over about 99% of my spare time...
 
Nigel (Sureshot) has kindly offered to take over as the new F1 PCG Administrator :cheers: Good luck with it, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Thanks, Chris. Any queries about this are welcome. I am going to update the first post soon in preparation for the 2008 season. I know people are eager to get this going so I will try to get a picture up ASAP.

---
Okay I want to try and keep it similar to how TM did it, because it worked. So...

I will post the images, whoever wins the last round will be sent a PM by me for a picture for the next round. They will then reply to me with their picture and I will post it up. I will try to keep the voting and results days on a regular weekly basis. It may take a bit of trial and error at the start with some aspects but as long as we get into a regular rhythm within the first few rounds, I don't see too much trouble.

As said above, any queries and advice is welcome, PM would be best so the flow in here is on topic.

I'd also like to add I've got a couple of years experience running a football predictions league on another forum. Though I expect this one to have more than 10 or so participents. I'm planning things a bit at the moment, it shouldn't be too long before the season will start.
 
Congrats Sureshot, I'm sure you can keep this comp running greatly. 👍


What time can we expect round 1?
 
I hope by the end of the week, Alex.

Good evening gentleman, I am pleased to announce that the 2008 Formula One Caption Competition has now started.

Round One​

Vettel: ... and I got involved in a kerfuffle at the first corner.

RTL reporter: WTF is kerfuffle?

Vettel forgets to don his wig for the Alonso lookalike competition.

"So I said to him, 'No, a lego brick will not work as a microphone.' but did he listen? No...."

To try to help the reporters understand Vettel better, a Toro Rosso mechanic holds a German Slang Translator for Vettel to speak into.

Apologies for my pitiful entry. If I can think of something better it will be posted.
 
Press reporters gang up on Vettel to see if they can make him cry again...


Looks like it's working.

"I cut my hair to save weight, but since I'm still last in the points I think my lips are next."

Vettel: Look, I think some of you took my quotes out of context when I said I'd like to sleep with Kimi.
I mean, he's a very attractive man ... how come that never came up?

Vettel: "Does it look like I am talking into a bunch of German sausages? No? Okay then" [/germanaccent]

Reporter: "Sebastian, is it true you are doing your bit for recycling by eating all the world's redundant compact cassette tapes, fed to you by your Toro Rosso team?"
