Kinja'd!!!

Welcome back to Formula Oppo, the fantasy RPG game that’s actually free to play. Is your fantasy football team garbage? Too bad, there’s nothing I can do for you, should have skipped this year and played Formula Oppo instead. But enough about that nonsense, we got a race ahead.

Kinja'd!!!

Previously on Formula Oppo, big shit happened bigly. Lewis Hamilton led an interesting qualifying round and proceeded to walk away with the race while lined up next to Lance Stroll at the start. Bottas managed to get around the Force India and Williams youngsters and claim second. Vettle managed to give the Italians something to cheer for, a German on the podium in red.

This week we head to Burma, because you’re not going anywhere. And there isn’t one of us that doesn’t want to be someplace else. But this is what we do, who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call. This is a tight street circuit, something that has been favoring the Ferrari’s all year, but something tells me that Mercedes has a response this time around. Red Bull can also show pace if the reliability and luck are there. Also don’t count out the Force India duo, although their first concern is not taking each-other out... Everyone else is pretty much where they are. Meanwhile at McLaren, Renault is coming:

Looks like Fernado might just be sticking around Woking for another season after all, sorry Indycar fans.

i dont want to win on bs. i was fumming at myself earlier in the season when i missed putting picks in for two weeks in a row.

three years running you and i have had a good battle going.

- i took the first year
- I was essentially second to you going in to that race last year before the crazy started happening in that race.

- this year is already a fist fight. i couldnt watch p2 today so these are based or redbull being a good aero car...... i still think max will blow up though

I see you went with the tried and true “just how they did in FP2" strategy - haha!

Back at you, should be a tight race to the finish. If Vettel takes it this week, we’re both in trouble from the Arch Duke!

Well, luck was definitely on my side today... but I would’ve given up my undeserved W to watch some better racing! Ugh - what a bummer. Was really hoping for a good fight at the top today. Hope Vettel can get himself back into the hunt before the end of the season.
