Grand Prix 4 Formula One Career Season 2001

[kedy89]

Let's play a game, guess the answers to following questions.

- who has the most dnfs, and how much?
- which season had the most/fewest dnfs, and how much?
- who has the highest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?
- who has the lowest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?
- how many drivers managed to have no dnf an entire season (participating in all races)?

Answers tomorrow evening

hmm so
I only did up to 97 so this is gonna be interesting

1: Aidan-let's say like 55
2: hue hue.. I actually did this on mine so I won't spoil the highest (it can't be one of the earlier seasons due to COF changes). For lowest I'll say 2001?
3: highest... hmm.. probably the same as first one
4: lowest.. I'll say you
edit: 5.. aww.. that's a tough one actually. I will say zero

now it will be really embarassing if I end up quite off..

added a 5th one

Note: These are all wild guesses!

- who has the most dnfs, and how much?

Has got to be Milos

- which season had the most/fewest dnfs, and how much?

1996 -> 59 DNF's

- who has the highest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?

Ben Utzer, dunno why. I just have the feeling he does

- who has the lowest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?

This definitely has got to be Jack Hunsley. The guy had freaking 4 dnf's over 2/3 seasons. THE LUCK!

Edit: 5th question. I think noone has so far. GP4 and not retiring in 16/17 races is undoable

 

[Milos]

added a 5th one

yeah, just saw it

 

[Tim.E]

I'll also take this moment to unveil something:
My new helmet for next season! Some may see similarities to someone elses helmet

actually I was quite suprised how off i was until 1997 (which were my worst years back then)
the timing of the DNFs however has a big role

you!

 

[Tim.E]

you!

What did I do wrong this time?

 

[Milos]

I probably completely missed who that helmet was suppose to look like

Oh comon, you know who I got my inspiration from. This is also the reason I watch the videos, to see me driving in a new car with a new helmet every year!

 

[Milos]

hmm

looks very similar doesn't it..

so yeah, it's still

you!

It's indeed Lewis who I got my inspiration from, I just don't understand why you put: "you" there

 

[Milos]

because I'm such a massive fan and taking me out from 3rd place (in a 2009 Renault shall I add) doesn't help either

 

[Milos]

wait a sec I just thought of something

GP4 and not retiring in 16/17 races is undoable

says the guy who managed to not retire once in the last season of GPTCC (28 races)

I got an electrical problem iirc in Donington R3

but we're talking about DNFs here not electrical problems that the AI can pit to fix

 

[kedy89]

come one guys, moar guesses. No need to be ashamed, noone will get it right (unless you count yourself)

 

[Jimlaad43]

OK, exams are over so I can have a go at these now.

- who has the most dnfs, and how much?

Ben Utzer 62?

- which season had the most/fewest dnfs, and how much?

1992 and 1998 for most (130) and fewest (89) respectively?

- who has the highest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?

Cristiano Mauri? 33/84 (39.28%) (He had a DNF streak of 8 at one point)

- who has the lowest dnf percentage (at least 50 races)?

- how many drivers managed to have no dnf an entire season (participating in all races)?

0. There have been close calls, but Zero is the answer

I did finish off mine, the results suprised me a little bit

 

[Milos]

Cristiano Mauri? 33/84 (39.28%) (He had a DNF streak of 8 at one point)

if you mean 1991 he had 5 DNFs in a row only as far as I saw it. Maybe he had more in a row but he was classified as finished somewhere in that
