ESPN F1 Championship 2018

I'm pretty stoked with my own result, though honestly, the team's performance left a lot to be desired, but I'm dead certain things are only going to look up from here

Finishing 9th and 10th definitely isn't what one of the top teams in the Reddit F1 championship aims for, but hey, that's racing. The competition is brutal and it's easy to lose your footing. We're planning to fight for much more substantial points as the season moves forward.

TAZ Dubrava always starts the year off on the wrong foot. I wouldn't be surprised if we finally find our rhythm once we get closer to the end of the season. 👍

Congrats to the winners... it was one of those races where everything just clicked perfectly for Ferrari. Everyone who put their money on the Scuderia after that first race is celebrating right now with some serious points in the bag... as for the rest of us, we'll just have to figure things out before the next one.😁

Thanks for the love. That's my second career win—solid way to kick off the season for the new Panda crew.

Panda is feeling satisfied after this opening round—they earned that win in Australia. Whether the rest of the field can actually catch up remains to be seen in Bahrain in just under two weeks.

brighthound8 is the backup manager for the championships and tournaments. 👍

If that's actually true, then we're completely screwed.😁 In my fantasy league, my buddy snagged 10 points, yet our whole squad somehow only walked away with 3.🤦 I didn't even bother watching the rest... we got robbed.🙂

brighthound8 knows exactly what matters! 🙂
They went ahead and handed Bambi an extra 12 points that he didn't even earn. 😁

When is darkmarlin16 finally going to realize those points actually belong to him?😁

A little late to the party, but I still wanted to say huge congratulations to wearymoose28 on the win!!!

Look, it’s true we went into this season feeling a bit more relaxed, but since we're such creatures of habit,
we know how long and grueling the season actually gets. Usually, right around the time everyone else burns out at Spa,
that’s when we really step up our game with those upgrades.

Can we please stick to using actual names instead of nicknames? Like, write out CONQUISTADORES properly.

Man, why even worry? brighthound8 isn't out here dropping official results. This is just his way of having some fun for himself and for us. 😁

Congrats to those who came out on top!
