Scoring and deadlines
Beat the lock.
Predictions lock from the synced race calendar. If a race has a dedicated lockout time, Pit Crew uses it; otherwise the race start time is the fallback.
What counts
Podium picks
Pick first, second, and third before predictions lock. Results are scored after official race outcomes are entered.
Bonus categories
Rounds can also include pole, fastest lap, a random position, DNF, winning team, fastest pit, safety car, and both cars in the points.
League tables
Scores roll into league standings race by race, so one brilliant weekend helps, but season-long consistency wins arguments.
Fair play rules
Predictions cannot be changed after the lockout time has passed.
Cancelled races are not open for saving predictions and may be excluded from scoring.
Missing predictions score nothing for that round, even if a player joins the league later.
If a scoring correction is needed, standings can be recalculated after the corrected result is saved.
Ties are shown in the league table without inventing hidden tiebreakers.
