DIUpdate - 24 Mar: Close with the tips of Nick (3rd highest) and Dan (2nd lowest) - but top scorer was in fact Luke and lowest scorer Corinna. At the top after Luke we had Terrie, Nick, Gary, James L, Anne-Marie, Liam, Rob, Manon and Peter (so 2 rookies in the top ten, another great showing from our new faces). One of them, Terrie, takes over at the top ahead of Lorna, Charlotte, Yasin, Anne-Marie, Lucy, Laura, Ian D, Manon and Peter while out biggest climbers were Gary and Luke, both up 11 places. At the bottom a low scorer Corinna it was Dan, Ross, George K, Eddy, Pauline, Pascale (our biggest faller down 19 places), John Fi, David and Joseph. Richard retains the Turner lead ahead of David, Dan, George K, Eddy, Ben, Pauline, Corinna, Ross and DW. After our first Sprint race Jamie led the way 1 point ahead of Ian C and Charlotte, Louise (180 points) and Neil & Mr T & Chris R & Djamila & Toby & John Fa & Paul (all on 179 points!). Next GP a couple of weeks away in Japan one of the most popular circuits with the drivers. Will we see any early pit-stops?


DIUpdate - 23 Mar: After the disqualifications could Nick now be our high scorer leader and Dan our low scorer?


DIUpdate - 23 Mar: Dick's tips? Well I reckon it's Rob for the top as that PIA/LEC/MCL combination looks to be the one to beat. As for bottom spot ALO/AST is I think a must-have and I'm going for George K to take it - just!


DIUpdate - 20 Mar: A reasonable starter for 10 for DI - Lorna was indeed top and Dan was in the bottom 10, but well behind leader Richard. Great to see three rookies in the top 10, well done Terrie, Chris R and Lizzy. After Lorna we had Charlotte, Terrie, Yasin (let down after his stellar qualification by SAI and RAC no doubt), Ian D, Chris R, Laura, Lucy, Anne-Marie and Lucy, with multiple champions like Rob, John M, Niel and Andrew all struggling to keep up. Multiple Turner champion Richard led the way in the Turner race, ahead of David, Ben, Toby, DW, DI's tip Dan, Pauline, Eddy, George K and Malcolm. 12 TPs out for Route-66 in the very first GP, that must be some sort of record. On to Shanghai!


DIUpdate - 16 Mar: Mayhem in Melbourne! Dick's tips? I'm going for Lorna to lead the way and Dan to take the Turner lead. And how come George has a null entry?


DIUpdate - 15 Mar: Great start in Australia qualifying for anyone with the NOR and TSU combination (Yasin is my pick with MCL, WIL and SAI as well) - but yet to see what happens in the race!


DIUpdate - 10 Dec: Pretty close with the tips – but no cigar! Top was Global Champion and Cup Winner Neil ahead of Claire (top rookie), previous Champions Niel and Rob, John M and Louise, Ian B, Lucy, James L and Peter. John M did more than enough to consolidate his lead and with it his second Championship, followed by long-time leader and previous Champion Andrew, Niel, Route-66 Challenge Champion and surely performer of the year John R (no pit-stops, what an initial selection!), Neil & Claire (24 races and both on equal points, amazing!), Sprint Champion Liam, the great DW, Rob and Laura (like John R, no pit-stops). At the bottom David led the way just ahead of Ross, Lorna, Joseph, Malcolm, Pascale, Saucer Winner Ben, Pauline, Nick and Anne-Marie. Ross (the only TP under 9,000 points) lifts the Turner for the second time ahead of David, Ben, Pascale, John Fi, Pauline, Malcolm, Richard, James K and Anne-Marie (in the bottom ten with world champion VER since day 1, impressive). Next stop Melbourne – who will lift the title in 2025 and become the 24th champion?
