[00:00.000 -> 00:07.560] Welcome everybody to the Fantasy Pit, part of the F1 Money Game podcast, where we talk
[00:07.560 -> 00:10.360] only F1 Fantasy.
[00:10.360 -> 00:14.980] And I'm super excited to do this, I've been meaning to do this for a while.
[00:14.980 -> 00:20.440] But I have the expert here with me from the Discord, Garrett, who is joining us from the
[00:20.440 -> 00:21.440] United States.
[00:21.440 -> 00:24.240] Garrett, how are you my friend?
[00:24.240 -> 00:26.000] I'm doing well, thanks for asking.
[00:26.000 -> 00:27.800] Yeah, just got done watching the sprint
[00:27.800 -> 00:33.640] and almost didn't get to do it because I was
[00:33.640 -> 00:36.480] having issues with YouTube TV.
[00:36.480 -> 00:40.960] And I just could not get it to work.
[00:40.960 -> 00:42.960] So I think I missed about the first half of it.
[00:42.960 -> 00:47.440] But I mean, the last half was pretty daggum exciting, too Oh, it's all the switching. Yeah. Yeah
[00:47.960 -> 00:52.900] That's that's fun. Yeah, it was I was I was gonna ask you. What do you think of the sprint?
[00:53.760 -> 00:59.220] Are you are you a fan of the sprint formats or what do you think about the sprint?
[01:00.340 -> 01:03.200] So I came into Formula One
[01:04.720 -> 01:06.760] Pretty So I came into Formula One Pretty
[01:08.240 -> 01:10.240] Pretty recently
[01:11.440 -> 01:13.440] So that's about all I've known
[01:14.080 -> 01:20.840] Okay is sprint format and I don't mind it. I think the sprint shootout is a little much
[01:21.960 -> 01:23.280] I
[01:23.280 -> 01:26.240] did kind of like what they did last year where like you just had
[01:26.240 -> 01:32.320] one qualifying session and like you then that was your sprint and then however
[01:32.320 -> 01:35.920] you finished in the sprint was how you started in the race. Like I liked that
[01:35.920 -> 01:41.320] style instead of doing like the practice one qualifying shootout and then the
[01:41.320 -> 01:45.920] sprint. It's a lot. It's too much it there's a lot of stuff
[01:45.920 -> 01:54.440] going on and especially when you're used to having qualifying on a Saturday
[01:54.440 -> 02:01.120] having qualifying on Friday especially for you know us being on the East Coast
[02:01.120 -> 02:05.160] like being so early in the day,
[02:05.160 -> 02:06.560] I completely forgot about it.
[02:06.560 -> 02:09.240] I was still at work, and I was like, oh, crap.
[02:09.240 -> 02:12.840] I've got to see how things are going.
[02:12.840 -> 02:13.680] So I don't know.
[02:13.680 -> 02:14.180] It's fine.
[02:16.880 -> 02:19.560] I don't know.
[02:19.560 -> 02:23.560] I feel like in the sprint, the rich get richer.
[02:23.560 -> 02:33.480] Max is still getting eight points or whatever for the sprint race on top of everything else yeah so I feel
[02:33.480 -> 02:38.340] like for there to be a really interesting sprint race like the grid
[02:38.340 -> 02:43.900] needs to be kind of flipped and I think they do that was it IndyCar the reverse
[02:43.900 -> 02:46.940] yeah some somebody mentioned yeah first grid yeah I'm not do that. Was it any car the reverse? Yeah, some somebody mentioned. Yeah first grid. Yeah
[02:46.940 -> 02:49.180] I'm not sure that would make it pretty fun
[02:49.180 -> 02:55.760] Is that you have a reverse grid because that offers drivers who wouldn't normally be in the points on a Grand Prix?
[02:56.240 -> 02:58.240] chances to get points
[02:59.680 -> 03:04.200] Because the guys in the passenger cars are gonna be making the way through the grid anyway, yeah, so
[03:11.920 -> 03:15.160] you know, I mean, I just, I think a reverse grid would be kind of cool. I don't know how, say, the top drivers would feel about that.
[03:15.160 -> 03:16.160] Yeah.
[03:16.160 -> 03:19.320] Because they qualified in order to get pole position.
[03:19.320 -> 03:20.320] Yeah.
[03:20.320 -> 03:26.920] But, yeah, I'm not exactly sure how all the logistics work but that's that's kind of where I'm at
[03:26.960 -> 03:27.460] Yeah
[03:27.460 -> 03:31.980] I the one I've been watching f1 since I lived in Europe back in
[03:32.120 -> 03:37.460] Late 90s and my uncle kind of got me into him and I was a mecha Hockeyman fan
[03:37.460 -> 03:41.340] That's why I'm a Mercedes fan now and a McLaren I support both teams
[03:41.340 -> 03:46.040] But uh, it's being used to one format and now I know the
[03:46.040 -> 03:50.140] F1 is trying to gain more fans and stuff but I feel like
[03:50.140 -> 03:55.260] they're doing way too much because to me outside of getting more points for these
[03:55.260 -> 03:59.480] sprints there's nothing special about it like we're watching half a race right or
[03:59.480 -> 04:07.280] I don't know what it is like 25 laps. Yeah a third and it's like is this necessary? I like you're you're
[04:08.200 -> 04:09.280] risking
[04:09.280 -> 04:10.900] To crush, you know
[04:10.900 -> 04:16.160] And then you might be in trouble for the actual race where he gained more points where everybody's gonna be watching it
[04:16.160 -> 04:20.060] I don't know. I I just like the standard format that way people I
[04:20.680 -> 04:24.520] Mean the the teams have time to you know, like work on their cars
[04:24.520 -> 04:24.960] I mean the teams have time to you know like work on their cars
[04:30.900 -> 04:33.760] You know like make them to the best setups for a race instead of like doing one one practice boom Let's do all these prints, but that's my opinion
[04:34.160 -> 04:38.160] But well, let's get to to the fantasy aspect
[04:38.160 -> 04:41.920] I know that you do fantasy and NFL and other sports and
[04:42.640 -> 04:49.600] you actually share a lot of information on the on the discord and and I and I do appreciate that because you're one of
[04:49.600 -> 04:54.160] the few people and I think that it's getting more and more notice actually we
[04:54.160 -> 04:58.800] look at our insights on the discord you're you're in the top channels being
[04:58.800 -> 05:04.520] viewed and the tipsters and F1MG so so congratulations on that so yeah people
[05:04.520 -> 05:05.460] are reading your stuff
[05:05.460 -> 05:09.000] they're looking at it so don't feel like if you don't get any reaction or
[05:09.000 -> 05:12.040] anything people are looking at your stuff trust me you're in the top 10
[05:12.040 -> 05:19.300] channels being watched so so that's a good thing well when you when you look
[05:19.300 -> 05:23.400] to build up your lineup you know the way that I do it is I look at the head-to-head
[05:23.400 -> 05:26.240] record so far this season. I try to
[05:26.240 -> 05:32.560] stay away from past history on the track because cars change, tracks change, a lot of
[05:32.560 -> 05:39.280] things change, upgrades to the cars. So I usually look at the current head-to-head, how drivers
[05:39.280 -> 05:43.440] do against each other, especially with the teammates because if you beat your teammate, you
[05:43.440 -> 05:48.640] automatically get the five points on DraftKings and that that is one of the
[05:48.640 -> 05:52.060] main things I look at and of course I want to get somebody cheaper that can
[05:52.060 -> 05:59.160] for sure be their teammates and the other one is I look at who I expect to
[05:59.160 -> 06:03.360] win the race and you know like like usually I want to have that guy in my
[06:03.360 -> 06:06.000] lineup either being a captain or not
[06:06.000 -> 06:11.360] And I know that you mentioned that and I try to build a lineup if you want to do max and Red Bull
[06:11.520 -> 06:14.840] It's impossible now because it just it's so expensive
[06:15.480 -> 06:19.700] And the other one is that uh, you know the starting positions
[06:19.700 -> 06:24.680] He also mentioned this yesterday with you know, like especially with Lando, so, you know, like starting in Ford
[06:23.760 -> 06:28.480] mentioned this yesterday, especially with Lando. Starting in forward, he might lose a few grip positions but he actually did
[06:28.480 -> 06:33.360] good today despite of... I was actually very impressed by the McLaren.
[06:33.360 -> 06:38.560] But grip positions are very important because I cannot remember the
[06:38.560 -> 06:41.840] structure exactly but I know that if you lose two or
[06:41.840 -> 06:47.160] three positions you get minus points, if you gain one or two or three you get points as well so these are the kind of
[06:47.160 -> 06:54.040] things like to look at the value like Sergio is starting at what 12th or 15th
[06:54.040 -> 06:58.920] so there's your chance I mean like I know that he's going against max so he's
[06:58.920 -> 07:03.160] for sure gonna lose the head-to-head in my opinion but he has a chance to you
[07:03.160 -> 07:07.920] know like if you like if you're looking to put him in your lineups that's a good one for grid gain
[07:07.920 -> 07:12.440] you know because you can gain some some points on that and also team drivers to
[07:12.440 -> 07:16.220] finishing points and podiums you also get bonus points if they finish in
[07:16.220 -> 07:22.720] points on a podium as well on top of you know the regular drivers the team also
[07:22.720 -> 07:25.120] gets the points this is the kind of things that I look for
[07:25.560 -> 07:29.660] What are some of your things like what do you look for when you go in and you?
[07:29.880 -> 07:33.640] Sit on a Saturday afternoon and you build up your lineup. What do you look for?
[07:34.920 -> 07:40.160] So a lot of the things that you've already mentioned, you know the head-to-heads who I think is gonna win
[07:42.360 -> 07:47.600] Starting position does play a big factor in how I lineups.
[07:47.600 -> 07:54.240] Because, I mean, it's one thing if you have a guy like Max
[07:54.240 -> 07:55.800] who's just starting at one.
[07:55.800 -> 07:59.740] So unless he naffs on a crash or something like that,
[07:59.740 -> 08:01.720] he's not going to gain any positions.
[08:01.720 -> 08:06.400] Sometimes, though, pricing in DraftKings does present
[08:06.400 -> 08:16.240] itself to take advantage of drivers who are out of place, such as like a Charles Leclerc,
[08:16.240 -> 08:23.080] where he or Charles, when there's been times where he's been out of place and that Ferrari
[08:23.080 -> 08:25.920] is so much faster than everyone else behind that's in front of him
[08:26.920 -> 08:28.920] and take advantage of that and
[08:29.200 -> 08:34.520] It'll pay off just because of his price point. Yeah, or as though is right on the edge of
[08:35.840 -> 08:38.800] Just a little too pricey. He has to
[08:40.320 -> 08:42.640] Return to early season form
[08:43.480 -> 08:49.480] where he's got to be high up in the points and he's got to pass people in order for me to really
[08:49.920 -> 08:52.000] want to play him and with I
[08:53.000 -> 08:55.440] might be getting getting a little bit ahead of myself here, but
[08:57.960 -> 09:05.040] But because say Aston Martin and Mercedes have improved their cars and
[09:05.880 -> 09:07.280] or
[09:07.280 -> 09:12.920] At least I think Aston Martin is still improving. They've kind of slipped back a little bit this race, but in general
[09:13.600 -> 09:15.600] That's kind of been the story of this year
[09:16.240 -> 09:18.240] And you've got I mean Ferrari
[09:19.200 -> 09:21.200] signs and the Claire both
[09:21.440 -> 09:23.040] qualified well
[09:23.040 -> 09:28.600] Errors didn't know a lot of track limits violations had to do with it but.
[09:28.600 -> 09:29.600] Yeah.
[09:29.600 -> 09:34.760] You know there's cars that are catching up to the Red Bull so he's not going to be able
[09:34.760 -> 09:39.000] to fly through the field as easily as say Max did in Miami.
[09:39.000 -> 09:40.000] Yeah.
[09:40.000 -> 09:45.280] Where Max was almost a surefire go where like you knew that
[09:50.340 -> 09:51.160] He was going to finish highly because the Red Bull was just that much better than everybody else
[09:53.480 -> 09:54.280] And he was going to get grid position points
[10:00.320 -> 10:01.440] Because he went up through the field. So like in that case, that's a bonus. So if yeah if max were to
[10:02.760 -> 10:05.360] spin out In q2 or something like that and start in 10th
[10:05.960 -> 10:08.320] Then I would be tempted. I would be like, okay
[10:08.320 -> 10:13.560] Yes, he's in a captain spot or he's locked into almost every single one of my lineups. Yeah
[10:14.680 -> 10:16.600] Go ahead. Sorry
[10:16.600 -> 10:21.080] So yeah out of position if the price point makes sense
[10:21.640 -> 10:26.460] Then I will take advantage of that. However, sometimes if it doesn't say like a Russell
[10:27.640 -> 10:29.640] this race like
[10:30.080 -> 10:36.940] I'll have it in some but I don't think he's going to get enough up the grid in order to justify a
[10:37.800 -> 10:39.800] Lot of exposure. Yeah
[10:41.760 -> 10:49.000] Well, that's the you know, like the other thing that you mentioned and and and I'm kind of very torn right now because
[10:49.000 -> 10:52.760] I always look at price points, where they were in the previous race, where they are
[10:52.760 -> 10:56.520] now, how the salary cap has increased or decreased.
[10:56.520 -> 11:02.520] And you mentioned the Ferraris, they had the team, they had the upgrades in the last few
[11:02.520 -> 11:03.720] races.
[11:03.720 -> 11:06.880] The Ferrari did really good here last year as you mentioned
[11:06.880 -> 11:08.080] They qualify really well
[11:08.080 -> 11:14.760] How would you handle because I'm looking at the salary cap both Charles and I want to call him Charles because that's his name
[11:14.760 -> 11:17.560] Sorry, Charles Sinclair and Carlos signs
[11:17.680 -> 11:29.360] They're both drops in salary by $400 on DraftKings, which means that we're getting a value here in picking those guys. So if it's you, I know that we're talking about
[11:29.360 -> 11:34.960] the amount of exposure to each guy being selected in each tournament.
[11:34.960 -> 11:40.160] You have two really good guys that are starting I think second and third. Who
[11:40.160 -> 11:45.280] do you pick in your starting lineup here because they're both gonna have a good race
[11:45.280 -> 11:48.320] I think outside of if they don't qualify or something
[11:49.120 -> 11:54.640] Yeah, so I am leaning towards Charles in this situation just because
[11:55.880 -> 11:58.240] he's starting ahead of Carlos and
[11:59.720 -> 12:01.720] He's he's just a better driver
[12:02.800 -> 12:08.600] In my opinion and I that it's probably the opinion most yeah, not to say that Carlos is a bad driver
[12:08.600 -> 12:11.780] But it's just yeah one is just better than the other so
[12:12.960 -> 12:15.880] Even though he's a little bit more expensive. I'll take
[12:16.880 -> 12:22.720] Extra, let's say he finishes in second if they stay where they are right now if they finish in second and third
[12:23.280 -> 12:27.000] Charles will outscore Carlos by, if
[12:27.320 -> 12:34.320] I'm math right, about 8 points. Yeah, I'm looking at the prices now. He is a lot more
[12:34.320 -> 12:40.080] expensive. And 8 points can mean the difference. Now, I do not remember the price points off
[12:40.080 -> 12:49.320] the top of my head. I have it 7400 for Carlos and 82 for Charles. So yeah I
[12:49.320 -> 13:00.080] mean $800 difference. I mean because of how DraftKings has things priced out, you
[13:00.080 -> 13:09.880] can fairly easily fit Charles in their lineup. So if I go down to Carlos, the money I'm saving,
[13:09.880 -> 13:17.080] I don't know if I can make up the point differential with,
[13:17.080 -> 13:23.080] say, instead of Charles and a cheaper driver versus Carlos
[13:23.080 -> 13:24.920] and another mid-level driver.
[13:24.920 -> 13:26.720] I don't know if the money that I'm saving to get up to another mid-level driver. I don't know if the money that I'm
[13:26.720 -> 13:28.960] saving to get up to that mid-level driver
[13:28.960 -> 13:31.760] will make the difference, especially because you've
[13:31.760 -> 13:37.760] got a guy like, say, Albon, 4,400, where more than likely,
[13:37.760 -> 13:42.280] he's going to have six points, one because he finished
[13:42.280 -> 13:47.280] and five additional points because he beat Logan.. Yeah, so I would run a lot cheaper
[13:47.800 -> 13:50.920] versus versus someone like say Carlos and
[13:52.040 -> 13:54.040] a
[13:55.400 -> 13:59.920] Maybe like a Lance troll or an on-call or something like that because even though I'll call is a good driver
[13:59.920 -> 14:02.320] He could finish in front of Gasly if he doesn't he's only
[14:02.840 -> 14:07.400] those guys are I believe only getting us a point as
[14:08.400 -> 14:16.200] I don't think if all goes according to I think the race is gonna go they're not gonna beat their teammates. Yeah, so
[14:17.360 -> 14:21.980] It's kind of a question of like the the money saved versus the points gained
[14:22.680 -> 14:27.720] Yeah, the opportunity cost cost of the drivers plays a
[14:27.720 -> 14:35.560] big factor on how I construct my lineups. And yeah, normally I
[14:35.560 -> 14:45.000] try my best to pair a driver with my constructor, so if I have
[14:46.600 -> 14:53.240] Mercedes I'm more than likely putting in a Lewis Hamilton or George Russell as you're a captain Amy that that that stack
[14:53.240 -> 14:55.240] Yeah, I mean
[14:55.480 -> 15:02.500] Captain it it depends on the lineup construction. Sometimes if at all possible, I do like to have
[15:03.960 -> 15:06.080] Captain and constructor.
[15:06.540 -> 15:07.120] Act.
[15:07.920 -> 15:25.300] But again like say with with max this time around you literally cannot build a lineup if you do max at captain no constructor he's he's over 21,000 I think or something crazy it. I mean I tried it. It is literally impossible like
[15:25.980 -> 15:29.200] Like you have no money for your fifth driver. Yeah
[15:30.080 -> 15:35.360] So in that case you can't do it, but you can still stack max just as
[15:36.680 -> 15:39.680] Not just not as a captain. Yeah
[15:41.080 -> 15:48.160] Yeah, I like to stack my drive at least one driver with my constructor in my in my lineup as well
[15:49.320 -> 15:51.320] Sometimes just to do something a little bit funky
[15:52.280 -> 15:54.920] Yeah, I'll switch it up. Like if you want to do
[15:55.640 -> 15:57.640] say a
[15:58.960 -> 16:00.960] Hamilton
[16:00.960 -> 16:02.520] and then
[16:02.520 -> 16:05.220] We fit in like a max and then
[16:07.320 -> 16:11.220] Sonoda at captain. I think I have one I'm trying to remember it off the top of my head, but I think I have a lineup like that where yeah
[16:11.220 -> 16:13.660] I've got Ferrari as a constructor
[16:14.620 -> 16:16.980] but that's because I think that
[16:18.360 -> 16:23.940] The Carlos are going to finish better than Mercedes, of course as a team. Yeah
[16:24.660 -> 16:25.120] So I can kind of get away with using finish better than Mercedes as a team.
[16:25.120 -> 16:30.520] So I can kind of get away with using Lewis and Max
[16:30.520 -> 16:35.960] instead of, say, Max and Charles or Lewis and Charles.
[16:35.960 -> 16:36.460] Yeah.
[16:39.840 -> 16:42.360] There's some nuance that goes into building lineups.
[16:42.360 -> 16:43.940] But yeah, I mean, eventually, it just
[16:43.940 -> 16:48.100] boils down to where are the drivers starting, how do I think the race is going
[16:48.100 -> 16:56.040] to go, and just, I mean, how good are the cars?
[16:56.040 -> 17:00.400] Yeah, of course, like you never know when a DNF is going to happen.
[17:00.400 -> 17:08.280] You are not as out of anybody's control, so you could pick anybody and it could just it could start raining and then boom you spin and you hit the wall
[17:09.280 -> 17:17.660] It's how it works. Well when you when we talking about that with this weekend, I you know, like I'm going here with mr
[17:17.660 -> 17:19.380] obvious, but I
[17:19.380 -> 17:25.320] I'm picking max in all my lineups because he just looks very good out there.
[17:25.320 -> 17:30.160] I was looking at some of these trends and I'm not picking him as a captain because I
[17:30.160 -> 17:36.080] can't afford to do the rest of the things I want to do as I expect him.
[17:36.080 -> 17:41.240] But I do like Max in my lineups here.
[17:41.240 -> 17:54.080] He has won 6 out of the 8 races. He has beaten Paris 6 out of the 8 races, outside of 2 races where Max finished 3rd
[17:54.080 -> 18:00.000] or something, when Paris won the couple races, or 2nd maybe.
[18:00.000 -> 18:08.560] Baku I think he was 2nd, and then was it Saudi? He was also second. Yeah, it was one of those early on
[18:09.420 -> 18:15.140] But yeah, he's always on podium. So he's gonna give you those extra bonus points and also laps led. That's another
[18:15.660 -> 18:16.720] stat that
[18:16.720 -> 18:21.400] Draftkings give you 0.1 point for every lap. They lead and Max has that
[18:22.760 -> 18:26.380] 358 out of 487 laps this season. So that's something to consider
[18:27.400 -> 18:28.440] I
[18:28.440 -> 18:35.800] Like this a lot. I think that you mentioned that you are you gonna have him in your lineups in any lineups? Yes
[18:37.560 -> 18:39.640] While I don't let's see
[18:40.640 -> 18:42.640] Yeah, I have him in
[18:43.640 -> 18:48.960] one captain spot, so I've got him as captain of one lineup, but as far
[18:48.960 -> 18:55.000] as my overall player exposure, he's in now 73% of my lineups.
[18:55.000 -> 18:56.000] Okay, that's good.
[18:56.000 -> 19:00.040] So I have a lot of exposure.
[19:00.040 -> 19:06.960] That's good. Good, which could either I mean it can depending on And this is where like my NFL
[19:08.680 -> 19:10.680] DFS comes into play like
[19:11.040 -> 19:12.120] he
[19:12.120 -> 19:18.060] Doesn't hit if he does have I mean not that this is a high possibility
[19:18.060 -> 19:22.560] But if he does not finish the race like most of my lineups are sunk
[19:22.560 -> 19:26.400] Oh, yeah, and and I think everybody else's will be though in that case
[19:26.400 -> 19:30.880] Yeah, but yeah, that's exactly it where like everyone else is also going to be sunk. Oh
[19:31.880 -> 19:36.080] It kind of evens itself out. Yeah, and and that's where
[19:36.880 -> 19:44.640] Another thing about about setting your lineups and picking your drivers is something called eating the chalk. Yeah. Yeah. Chalk is just a
[19:46.240 -> 19:53.680] way to describe players that are typically used by everyone. And we have NFL versus
[19:53.680 -> 19:58.280] F1 there's only 20 drivers to pick in F1. There's hundreds of players to pick
[19:58.280 -> 20:05.720] in the NFL. So rosters are not as
[20:07.040 -> 20:08.800] Condensed as
[20:08.800 -> 20:13.440] former the one is but there are still players that in
[20:15.880 -> 20:19.400] Specific matchups that can be extremely good not now. I mean like I
[20:20.240 -> 20:29.600] Mean, you know NFL Derek Henry like if he was to go up against a really bad run defense Like everybody's gonna be playing course. They'll be the expectation and yeah, because
[20:30.440 -> 20:33.880] Especially in cash lineups where you're only trying to beat 50% of the field
[20:35.120 -> 20:37.120] You know you you have to play him
[20:37.120 -> 20:42.000] Yeah, everyone else is going to be if he fails then congratulations. So did everyone else?
[20:42.000 -> 20:45.300] Yeah, I hope that your other guys make up the slack. Yeah
[20:46.620 -> 20:48.440] So I'm not
[20:48.440 -> 20:55.300] Terribly concerned. There's a few times where you know, I'll realize that I'm a little overweight on a driver whether it's
[20:55.940 -> 20:57.940] I mean I
[20:57.940 -> 21:02.080] Just because of when I first started playing f1 DFS. It was when
[21:02.640 -> 21:06.700] When was just consistently not that he's not consistently beating Logan
[21:06.700 -> 21:13.000] But consistently beating Latifi and just giving you really cheap points early on last year in DFS
[21:13.000 -> 21:15.620] So like I kind of fell in love with with Alex Albin there
[21:16.720 -> 21:21.180] So I've got a watch like my little my dryer driver bias. Yeah
[21:22.520 -> 21:28.680] And not to get myself overexposed because he's had mess ups this year.
[21:28.680 -> 21:32.880] If I'm a little bit too overexposed then that could sink.
[21:32.880 -> 21:40.460] I can go with other drivers that are similar in price point get similar points as well.
[21:40.460 -> 21:46.600] I need to watch myself and be like, okay look Look don't always go for Albin. There's another guy said such as pot ass who?
[21:47.760 -> 21:49.680] Though he's been inconsistent
[21:49.680 -> 21:52.840] Can still finish with the same amount of points as Albin?
[21:52.840 -> 21:57.280] Yeah similar price and that limits your exposure and thus limits your risk
[21:57.280 -> 21:58.120] Yeah
[21:58.120 -> 22:02.240] We'll still you know, like like get you the same amount of points or close to I
[22:02.760 -> 22:08.660] Totally understand like where you come from and I do understand that especially with F1
[22:08.660 -> 22:12.960] being only 20 drivers you're gonna see a lot of similar lineups out there.
[22:12.960 -> 22:16.100] It's not like in the NFL you got hundreds of players that you can pick.
[22:16.100 -> 22:21.600] 30 quarterbacks, 60 running backs, you know there's so many things to pick out
[22:21.600 -> 22:29.080] there. That brings me to the next point and we talked about this earlier was you know
[22:29.080 -> 22:36.080] with with the Ferraris and I have I have I have science in a lot of my lineups
[22:36.080 -> 22:42.360] because I was looking at the stats and you know he has beaten Leclerc six out
[22:42.360 -> 22:47.000] of the eight races this season they had head, which gives us those 5 bonus points.
[22:47.000 -> 22:55.000] He doesn't have a podium yet this year, which I'm not too concerned about because he did look very strong this weekend.
[22:55.000 -> 22:59.000] But he has finished in the top 6 in 6 out of 8 races.
[22:59.000 -> 23:05.920] He's consistently in the top six or I would say you know like he has I'll from from
[23:05.920 -> 23:12.080] what I saw this weekend from him was he beat Leclerc in almost every session
[23:12.080 -> 23:18.360] outside of the qualifying q3 and you know like in the practice he beat him
[23:18.360 -> 23:22.860] even in the sprint shutout I did not watch it because it was a 6 a.m. local
[23:22.860 -> 23:29.480] time here I was not up for that but I did look at the stats and he beat him in every session
[23:29.480 -> 23:35.080] And then of course he looked very strong I think in the sprint race as well
[23:35.080 -> 23:40.480] So I'm gonna have Carlson in a lot of my lineups as well. And I know you like look look later
[23:40.480 -> 23:43.240] I'm gonna have him there as well, but I prefer
[23:44.360 -> 23:46.900] you know I prefer him
[23:46.900 -> 23:52.160] for cheaper and that way I could slide somebody like Bottas or Alban or you
[23:52.160 -> 23:56.200] know like somebody else that I can think that is gonna be their
[23:56.200 -> 24:03.800] teammates and the other ones that I like here is Landon Norris and I'll let you
[24:03.800 -> 24:05.060] speak on that one as well
[24:05.060 -> 24:09.800] because I know that you you kind of have a love-hate relationship of picking him
[24:09.800 -> 24:15.720] because of where he starts and and losing a position but I do like him a
[24:15.720 -> 24:20.220] lot he the McLaren looks very very strong this weekend as far as the
[24:20.220 -> 24:27.200] performance of the car he's starting Ford Ford, I think. I can't remember. Yes. So Ford. So I'm a
[24:27.200 -> 24:33.920] little concerned about the grid position that he might lose a few spots, but I think that he's
[24:33.920 -> 24:37.920] going to finish into points without an issue. He's going to beat up Piastri, even though Piastri has
[24:37.920 -> 24:45.200] been surprising to me, has been doing really well. But I do have Norris as a captain and one of my lineups
[24:45.400 -> 24:52.040] Just like it's a safe save money to insert somebody like like max or Charles or Carlos
[24:53.720 -> 24:56.080] What do you think about that one, what do you think about Landon or us?
[24:57.200 -> 25:01.360] so real quick just going back to Charles and Carlos like I I
[25:02.080 -> 25:06.360] Cannot argue with you as far as the stats go like everything says that you probably should play Carlos
[25:06.360 -> 25:08.360] It's just it's more of a gut feel for me. Yeah
[25:09.960 -> 25:15.520] Just because like I just I saw their performance all of last year and how Charles was just
[25:15.880 -> 25:22.220] Their driver overall, but again things change from year to year, of course. So yeah again, I can't argue with you there
[25:23.600 -> 25:27.420] but as far as Norris goes,
[25:27.420 -> 25:30.040] the reason I'm having love hate with it
[25:30.040 -> 25:32.820] is because like, he's actually a good driver.
[25:35.500 -> 25:37.180] Even though the McLaren is,
[25:38.740 -> 25:41.180] this time around, oh my gosh,
[25:41.180 -> 25:43.060] they have not done him justice.
[25:43.060 -> 25:45.600] Like, so good and talented but
[25:47.240 -> 25:49.540] I'm also worried about the guys that are behind him
[25:50.680 -> 25:56.120] Such as guys like Fernando Alonso, and I'm just not worried about Lance stroll who's also behind him
[25:56.120 -> 25:59.600] I just even though I stroll the bill
[25:59.920 -> 26:07.680] Yeah, even though stroll did well in the sprint today. I just I don't think had that race going on much longer. I don't
[26:08.500 -> 26:11.440] He would have been able to hold off Alonso. No for much longer
[26:12.240 -> 26:13.500] and
[26:13.500 -> 26:17.220] There's only so much you can do in 24 laps. So
[26:18.880 -> 26:19.580] And yeah
[26:19.580 -> 26:21.000] I'm not trying to
[26:21.000 -> 26:24.680] To be too biased about what I just saw on the sprint because Norris did hold his own
[26:26.800 -> 26:27.360] Until the soft tire started coming out.
[26:27.360 -> 26:30.120] And then that's when he started falling down the grid
[26:30.120 -> 26:31.200] because he was on enters.
[26:31.200 -> 26:32.680] So I'm not holding that against him.
[26:32.680 -> 26:34.520] Yeah.
[26:34.520 -> 26:40.440] It's more of, until I see it been in a Grand Prix,
[26:40.440 -> 26:46.360] I'm holding my breath if it is in fact
[26:51.280 -> 26:51.880] The the the new McLaren has kind of come out and they're solid
[26:56.320 -> 26:57.840] and I might be more apt to selecting Norris in future races, but
[27:04.440 -> 27:05.600] And but yeah, that's that's the reason that I'm kind of iffy on on selecting Norris a lot. I still have exposure to him, but I'm not
[27:06.520 -> 27:11.840] Pounding the table for Lando Norris and DFS this week. It's just because you know, he's got guys like
[27:13.280 -> 27:21.960] Alonso behind him. He's got Lewis Hamilton is right on his tail. Yeah, then you've also I mean if Perez decides to
[27:22.480 -> 27:24.360] become
[27:24.360 -> 27:29.800] Sprint shootout and sprint race Perez. Yeah instead of the Paris that we've seen over the past few weeks
[27:30.480 -> 27:34.120] Then you know, he's in a Red Bull which is extremely fast
[27:35.380 -> 27:40.240] Max won by what was it like 20 seconds or whatever in yeah in 24 laps. So
[27:41.240 -> 27:45.000] Harris can even get some of that out.
[27:45.000 -> 27:51.840] Then Norris could be bidding with Russell, Hamilton, Perez.
[27:51.840 -> 27:55.000] I'm trying to see if there's anyone else that I really.
[27:55.000 -> 27:55.500] Ocon.
[27:55.500 -> 27:56.580] Yeah, that's a lot of ways.
[27:56.580 -> 27:58.200] Gasly's up there, too.
[27:58.200 -> 28:00.440] Gasly's up there.
[28:00.440 -> 28:06.320] I think Gasly and Norris are having similar to your cars
[28:08.280 -> 28:11.960] So I'm not too concerned with with say Gasly coming up
[28:14.080 -> 28:19.580] Until he starts getting past so like once he starts getting pushed down the order if say
[28:20.600 -> 28:23.120] You know Alonso and Hamilton get past him
[28:23.780 -> 28:29.800] Now he's back in six and now you're gonna start feeling pressure from some of the guys behind you like Russell Perez and
[28:30.320 -> 28:34.080] Even say Gasly or whatnot and and potentially Lance Stroll
[28:35.840 -> 28:42.640] So I think that he could fall back in the grid a little bit and with that comes negative points, yeah, but
[28:43.920 -> 28:47.320] He can still become a value if he does finish.
[28:48.840 -> 28:50.120] These in the points.
[28:51.200 -> 28:56.800] I think right now I've got him projected and that it was just a quick run through of
[28:56.800 -> 28:57.400] the race.
[28:59.360 -> 29:00.480] I think I've got like eight or nine.
[29:00.560 -> 29:07.400] If he does that and still beats Piastri which he should just based on all that we've seen so far this week
[29:07.840 -> 29:12.160] Still be a good value, but it's just is it as much of a value as he would be?
[29:13.760 -> 29:15.760] Wise yeah
[29:16.760 -> 29:22.840] But yeah, I'm not opposed to playing him for force because I still have him but yeah, I'm I'm questioning
[29:24.000 -> 29:25.080] Ceiling just because I
[29:25.080 -> 29:29.800] don't think that he's gonna stay in with I think he will drop down and accrue some
[29:29.800 -> 29:34.160] negative points yeah but he should still stay in the points and get that five
[29:34.160 -> 29:38.760] bonus five-point bonus for beating his teammate as well okay awesome yeah okay
[29:38.760 -> 29:42.600] well that's that's why we're discussing this you know like we're not gonna be
[29:42.600 -> 29:50.400] always on the same page you know so so it's a it's a good thing then what about drivers to avoid
[29:50.400 -> 29:58.820] I I'm not a big fan of the Haas guys as you know always a strong qualifier even
[29:58.820 -> 30:08.520] though Hulkenberg did amazing I mean until the very end where you know, he kind of lost but he was in second place for have the sprint and
[30:09.120 -> 30:13.020] But when it comes to race day, I if it's a dry race
[30:13.360 -> 30:18.080] Which is kind of expected to be I don't see the house doing anything good
[30:18.080 -> 30:20.520] Even though he's starting in for that thing or no, he's in
[30:21.040 -> 30:24.480] What position is he is he starting fifth or sixth?
[30:24.440 -> 30:28.040] He's in what position is he is he starting fifth or sixth?
[30:30.400 -> 30:34.380] Oh, okay, so he's starting in the points I expect him to lose blue blue spots easily
[30:34.560 -> 30:39.940] Especially at this fast track and and like you mentioned there's guys that are all kind of behind them
[30:40.120 -> 30:45.720] So is Paris Piazza has been doing great great. So I'm gonna fade all the house drivers.
[30:45.720 -> 30:48.000] I'm not gonna have him in any of my lineups.
[30:49.360 -> 30:55.840] Nick DeVrie is another one that I'm staying away from. He has not impressed me at all all year long. I just
[30:56.640 -> 30:59.520] I don't think that he's gonna be in F1 for too much longer.
[31:00.520 -> 31:02.440] But I know that
[31:02.440 -> 31:06.880] you know, like he had the highs of you know, coming in and everybody was excited, but I'm that he had the highs of coming in and everybody was excited.
[31:06.880 -> 31:12.320] But I'm staying away. I think that Yuki is the way better driver, should easily beat him head to head.
[31:12.320 -> 31:18.320] And I just can't see Nick doing much better from where he's starting.
[31:18.320 -> 31:27.040] And Logan Sargent. I mean, unless Albon crashes, I just can't see Logan even gaining grid spots from the
[31:27.040 -> 31:28.040] back.
[31:28.040 -> 31:29.360] It just has not impressed me.
[31:29.360 -> 31:34.680] I know that it is kind of sad to see him on the back because I could genuinely see he
[31:34.680 -> 31:38.960] tries hard, but it's just the car that he's got.
[31:38.960 -> 31:43.160] And those are my drivers and teams to avoid.
[31:43.160 -> 31:44.160] What about you?
[31:44.160 -> 31:47.540] What do you see? What are a couple couple people that you want to avoid this weekend? I
[31:49.120 -> 31:51.240] Mean just echo you has
[31:53.080 -> 31:55.080] I'm out on them this week
[31:56.440 -> 32:01.160] Because yeah, I mean you mentioned some of the guys that were behind them such as Russell Perez
[32:01.960 -> 32:03.960] Russell
[32:05.160 -> 32:09.680] Russell Perez guys, let's not even forget how good Albin's been in that Williams
[32:09.760 -> 32:14.840] Yeah, and I don't know if Logan has gotten those upgrades, but you love Albin. So I don't know
[32:15.280 -> 32:18.820] But you love Alba though. I don't wanna I don't want to
[32:20.640 -> 32:22.640] Sorry
[32:23.560 -> 32:25.520] No, it's all good, but
[32:28.480 -> 32:33.880] But but yeah driver bias aside like Alvin has been very impressive
[32:35.120 -> 32:37.640] over the last couple of I
[32:38.160 -> 32:40.780] Guess one Grand Prix and then one sprint. Yeah
[32:41.560 -> 32:45.960] But I mean he's qualified 10th. I think he was in the points
[32:46.480 -> 32:48.960] Yeah, he was last to start and
[32:50.120 -> 32:56.120] He was last race and then I think in the sprint shootout. I think he qualified in the points now
[32:56.120 -> 32:58.120] he fell out of it because of
[32:58.320 -> 33:01.480] all the pit stop and going on but
[33:02.060 -> 33:04.060] He was still doing
[33:04.080 -> 33:06.060] Pretty well overall
[33:06.220 -> 33:13.400] So he should pass the house easily you're saying so I imagine that he's going to pass. That's fairly easily, especially in the straights
[33:15.240 -> 33:17.800] So, yeah Hulk is gonna fall down but a
[33:19.120 -> 33:21.680] little bit higher profile driver that
[33:22.280 -> 33:23.400] think
[33:23.400 -> 33:28.600] And be avoided this week is Lance stroll. I'm not really feeling it with him this week
[33:28.600 -> 33:31.760] I think he's gonna drop down a few places just because I like
[33:32.840 -> 33:40.240] balance and cars of the drivers behind him such as and I know we're I'm sounding like a broken record here, but Paris and
[33:41.480 -> 33:42.920] Russell especially
[33:42.920 -> 33:46.120] You mentioned his teammate Alonso who is directly behind
[33:46.120 -> 33:50.520] him and I know going into turn one Alonso is just gonna send it and try to
[33:50.520 -> 34:00.840] pass him. He can get up on to Hamilton's tail. So if Stroll does in fact fall
[34:00.840 -> 34:06.440] back in the grid a little bit and doesn't beat his teammate He's only looking at a couple of points
[34:07.080 -> 34:11.120] in in DFS, and that's really not gonna pay off at his price point of
[34:12.720 -> 34:19.240] D400 you know I think right now. I've only got him projected for I mean you be three max but
[34:20.320 -> 34:25.080] And that's that's only if the race goes as I think it does but
[34:27.480 -> 34:28.680] Yeah, he's just he hasn't impressed
[34:30.120 -> 34:32.640] side of a Good performance in oh shoot
[34:34.440 -> 34:39.200] Was it Miami that Alonso decided not to fight and let him go and let Lance
[34:39.760 -> 34:44.720] That was other than that. Yeah, there was one race. Yeah, he has consistently beaten him
[34:44.720 -> 34:48.760] I think was only one race. I I don't know if it was Canada. No, it wasn't Canada
[34:48.760 -> 34:55.600] I cannot remember but I do remember there was one and I know that it was a Spain it was it was it was Spain Spain
[34:55.600 -> 34:57.600] Yeah, yeah
[34:58.280 -> 35:04.160] So, yeah, like other than that like he's just been repeated the outclassed by Alonso, so I don't think he's gonna get the the five
[35:05.040 -> 35:06.320] points for beating his teammate and Just been repeated the outclassed by Alonso, so I don't think he's gonna get the the five points
[35:06.320 -> 35:08.320] for beating his teammate and
[35:09.040 -> 35:11.920] if he does in fact fall down the grid even a couple of spots and
[35:14.240 -> 35:17.280] Just I don't I don't see any ceiling there. Yeah
[35:18.120 -> 35:24.200] Okay. And well, I'm gonna read off some of your lineups that you shared in the discord
[35:24.760 -> 35:27.400] For the people who listen who are not in the discord.
[35:27.400 -> 35:32.800] But and if you're not, if you want to get in the discord, you could find the link in the description.
[35:33.320 -> 35:39.400] But Garrett and myself and there's other people who do F1 fantasy share their lineups.
[35:39.880 -> 35:41.480] But I see some over here.
[35:41.800 -> 35:45.280] You have Landon Norris in one as a captain,
[35:45.280 -> 35:48.780] Alban, Balthasar, Leclerc, Verstappen,
[35:48.780 -> 35:51.920] and Ferrari as your constructor.
[35:51.920 -> 35:54.240] Another one that you have, Yuki as a captain,
[35:54.240 -> 35:56.600] which I think is also another good one.
[35:57.520 -> 36:00.880] Also you have Norris, Leclerc, Alban, Verstappen, and Ferrari.
[36:00.880 -> 36:06.560] So I do see that you love the Ferraris this weekend as myself as a constructor
[36:06.560 -> 36:08.840] I think it's a it's a good
[36:09.480 -> 36:12.280] Constructor to to having at the price point they're at
[36:12.920 -> 36:20.100] I do I do really in like that lineup a lot. I see you have Gasly as a captain
[36:20.540 -> 36:24.140] Maybe can you speak on that a little bit? Why you have that in there?
[36:25.040 -> 36:27.040] so Gasly is Maybe can you speak on that a little bit? Why you have that in there? so gasoline is
[36:28.520 -> 36:34.360] He's starting night, right? Yeah, that's part of the whole game theory kind of thing there
[36:36.360 -> 36:40.660] Even though he is starting ninth if he does manage to stay in the points
[36:40.660 -> 36:43.960] Which I think he can do just based on that out beam
[36:47.280 -> 36:52.680] You know, he'll have an extra point or two because of that, and then he'll, assuming
[36:52.680 -> 36:58.120] he's, again, this is a lot of assumptions going on here, but, you know, beating Akon,
[36:58.120 -> 37:08.680] staying in the points, finishing, gives him, I've got him projected for right at like 7 fantasy points.
[37:08.680 -> 37:16.840] Which is, especially as a captain, I mean that would be 1.5, so what, that's 10.5 points.
[37:16.840 -> 37:47.640] It's not a whole lot as far as captain goes, but what I try to do is just mix up who my lower price point captains are so able to just jam in as many higher price
[37:47.640 -> 37:51.600] drivers as they can and it consistently works.
[37:51.600 -> 37:54.600] I can't say it always does.
[37:54.600 -> 38:03.260] A lot of the guys that have won the $20,000 grand prize contest on DraftKings, there was
[38:03.260 -> 38:09.140] one week where the guy, his captain was Logan sergeant who I do remember that with 1.5 points
[38:10.680 -> 38:15.560] There was another guy a couple weeks later who had both Logan and Nick DeVries
[38:16.120 -> 38:21.980] In his winning lineup and they combined to score two points. So it's all about what can you save and
[38:23.160 -> 38:27.280] What captain can you put in that can be just a little bit
[38:27.280 -> 38:32.640] of a difference maker that could even have a surprising race if Gasly does happen to
[38:32.640 -> 38:34.800] gain a spot or two.
[38:34.800 -> 38:40.880] If someone in front of him DNFs, there's that potential as well.
[38:40.880 -> 38:45.040] And if he does have a surprising race, you know, we could be looking at I
[38:47.040 -> 38:47.120] mean instead of say
[38:49.120 -> 38:49.200] Just going
[38:54.960 -> 38:56.600] Not on captain just for easy math instead of saying seven points. I just as a driver you might be looking at
[38:58.600 -> 38:59.040] Ten or twelve
[39:03.300 -> 39:07.800] Especially, you know when that's one point five X in the captain spot that's a decent amount of points that you can fit as like max or Charles or
[39:09.220 -> 39:16.080] You know a Hamilton or or Carlos you can jam in a bunch of the top tier drivers for at that price point
[39:17.880 -> 39:21.140] I'm a ghazali. I think for me it's more of
[39:23.280 -> 39:28.580] Central points finish where as a guy like Sonoda, I think, is just,
[39:29.920 -> 39:33.120] even if he doesn't qualify well, he's consistently shown,
[39:33.120 -> 39:35.560] like he's kind of the opposite of Haas,
[39:35.560 -> 39:37.000] where like Haas qualifies well
[39:37.000 -> 39:38.560] and does not do well in the race.
[39:38.560 -> 39:39.400] Yeah.
[39:39.400 -> 39:42.200] He qualifies okay, and then does well in the race.
[39:42.200 -> 39:45.360] And he has consistently been in the top 12. So all year. Yeah. Yeah
[39:45.960 -> 39:48.780] so I'm expecting say guys like Sonoda to
[39:49.960 -> 39:56.040] Be good as a captain because of them in grid or gaining grid positions
[39:56.800 -> 39:59.800] and beating guys like Nick DeVries
[40:02.360 -> 40:08.000] Meanwhile Gasly I'm expecting instead of he may only gain a spot or two.
[40:08.000 -> 40:13.560] You don't get any points for that, but you do get points for top ten finish.
[40:13.560 -> 40:16.840] So that's kind of where the balance is.
[40:16.840 -> 40:19.360] Like one guy, I'm expecting him to stay in the points.
[40:19.360 -> 40:23.000] The other guy, I'm expecting him to gain points because he's gained positions.
[40:23.000 -> 40:24.000] Yeah.
[40:24.000 -> 40:25.600] Cool, cool.
[40:25.600 -> 40:29.480] All right, well, to wrap it up here,
[40:29.480 -> 40:32.960] I'm looking forward to do more of these with you.
