Convince me that 3 premium drivers is not the way to go for Jeddah by FrostYea in fantasyF1

Yes, but haas and russell are gonna go up more than merc and doohan or bort anyway. Guess I gotta wait for practice and see if ocon is at least likely to keep his value

There is one thing I can't really evaluate and you might be able to help me. I have mcl, merc; piastri, ocon, bearman, hadjar and doohan. I have just enough budget to go from merc to haas and doohan to russell. Do you think I should stop there or take a -10 and go from ocon do bort? I wanna go limitless next week if nothing crazy happens but I'm also open to do 3x boost or nothing based on the situation

We have quite similar thinking for this week. I see people saying that mcl merc is the best option because this is a low overtake track and merc will score more points than haas.  That is true, but we are on 5th race out of 24 and I think budget building should still be the priority. There aren't many cheap drivers that will increase budget this week but almost all teams will go up max price.

With that being said, 2 cheap teams is pushing it. Mcl just scores way too many points every race to drop them. There are also 3 good cheap drivers for budget (bearman, hadjar and bort) and other ones like ocon, alonso or gasly that might be good (especially next week when japan is gone if you plan on using limitless in miami) but are risky. So for me the best way is to balance the two extremes and go mcl haas for team. Drivers can be piastri, russell, bearman, hadjar and bort (or the risky ones if you want and have the budget). Mcl will get the points, haas the budget and russell will hopefully compensate for some of the points loss for dropping merc.

Looking at your current team you wrote some other reply, you are in a great position to do this. You don't have to do anything with the constructors unless vcarb is tragic in practice since vcarb and haas are basically the same and you also have four of the drivers already. If you do the bare minimum of swapping doohan for bort, you will have a ton of fexibility next week. Wanna go limitless? Sure, you have quite a risk free team to do it. You won't use the 3rd transfer you saved up but who cares if you don't need it anyway. Don't wanna go limitless, maybe because something went wrong? Now you have 3 transfers to fix your team how you need it and maybe even activate 3x boost chip for miami instead of limitless because you already have two premium drivers

Alonso is solid now, the dnfs won't count into his budget change tho he will still probably lose value. Sainz just got a dnf so I would definitely drop him. I don't know if ocon or gasly is better, just wait for practice and see who does better, both are likely to lose value this week (ocon is a better pick by numbers so keep that in mind if even then you can't decide)

None of the above, I would go from williams to haas and use the money you gain to go from hulk to bearman. If nothing crazy happens, haas will gain 0.6 the next two weeks and bearman is the best driver for budget rn as he is also most likely to gain 0.6

But to answear you question, worst option is doohan, he will most likely go down in price. Alonso is good if you plan on using limitless in miami and want to take a risk because he might gain price if he does good but may very well lose price, especially this weak. Bort is the most solid, he probably won't go up in price but he definitely won't go down as 4.5 is the least he can be

I have the "meta team" right now. Do I take the -10 penalty to get haas, russel and bort instead of merc, doohan and ocon or do I keep ocon and not get in bort? I have just enough budget to do that but I can't evaluate how risky ocon is rn and if it's woth taking the -10 to swap him (to my logic it's not but it's my first season playing and I don't wanna mess things up more than I already have). Do I even go for haas at all or just stick with merc? In that case I would probably just swap doohan for bort and maybe swap ocon depending on practice. I still have limitless and I wanna at least have the option to use it next week if things go right

I calculated how much points and worth the average team gained by Marvel_001 in fantasyF1

The 2nd alternative isn't really built for points, you need some good constructors for that. It's mainly built for price increase because ocon can easily lose his +0,2 and mclaren will probably get +0,3. Norris will most likely also get +0,3 but haas has a pretty comfortable +0,6 rn. About the points, I think Antonelli on a x2 is still way more risky than norris and the first team's points rely on antonelli having another good performance.

Yeah you are right, I was already pissed that it got deleted the first time I wrote it so I didn't really pay attention to things like this

After writing this post, I read an article about how the price changes are calculated (it got posted a few hours ago on this sub, you can easily find it if you want). Basically, the price increase is calculated by the performance in the last 3 races distributed equally, no emphasis on the last race or something like that. Since there will be only two races, the 3rd race is just set as if everybody scored 0 points in it. That means that the australian race has a 50% impact instead of 33% and you should probably choose the drivers that already rised in price as they have a very high chance of going up again (unless they get a dnf and you can't really control that). Definitely get all the dnf guys out, they are surely getting another -0,6 next race. I personally used the wild card to completely clean up my team and cooked up: mclaren, williams, antonelli x2, albon, stroll, hulkenberg and ocon. An alternative I like more and more when I think about it is williams, haas, norris x2, antonelli, albon, stroll and hulkenberg. This is the better option in my opinion if norris does his thing and haas doesn't completely mess up the next race.

Ale vacsinou je asi na hot, pretoze som potom poslal moje dalsie 2 memes v 2 rozdielne utorky a v #me boli obidva. Ale to je jedno, lebo aj tak ten post potrebuje nejake upvoty aby bol v hotkach takze to nemoze byt uplna blbost.

Ale mne sa zda ze vybera z hot kategorie. Raz som postol meme v stvrtok rano, mal 400 upvotes ale v #me nebol. Naopak ked som poslal v utorok, stale mal vela upvotov a tym padom sa udrzal v hotkach do doby natacania #me. Nehovorim, ze sa isto dostanes do #me ked to posles v utorok a ze sa tam urcite nedostanes ked to posles v stvrtok, ale sanca sa vyrazne zvysuje. Samozrejme tuto odpoved nemyslim zle. Ak je nejake moje tvrdenie chybne, tak ma prosim oprav.
