This is looking remarkable similar to last years F1T league, in that I'm dead last. Not surprising seeing as I chose 4 drivers who retired, includin Wurz and DC.

Did the results change, or am I looking at it the wrong way?
I see 452 on 3rd and no 'checkered' at all.
Here's the top 3 as I see it on the mini league page:
F1Technical.net
1 pRo 471
2 Msagro Dynamics 460
3 SBQ 452

I think I'm 3rd in our "Macca mini league" (my team name is "SBQ") with 452 pts. Currently, in general standings I rank 375/13986 which puts me in the top 3% of all participants, easy ... not too shabby at all. But catching the overall leader (3CL), who is 31 pts clear of pRo already (and a whole 50 of me!) might prove an insurmountable challenge.
Someone keep an eye on the transfer windows, so we can have a go at it.
Fer sure, we'll all be aware and ready when the transfer window opens.
There will be three transfer windows during the season:
Transfer Window 1: 14th May - 25th May 2007 18:00 GMT
Transfer Window 2: 9th July - 20th July 2007 18:00 GMT
Transfer Window 3: 10th September - 14th September 2007 18:00 GMT
The first transfer comes after Spain and before Monaco.
Oops...I didn't realize you can only change the team three times and at given dates. I thought you can change it before every race, like in some other series.

doing "a-ok"! Currently 302/15864 overall (in the top two-freakin'-percent!) and gaining a whopping 73 places! But it's a testament to just how tough our mini league is that I've actually dropped a place there despite my overall gain ... still, our current leader is 45 pts behind the overall leader, so we're trailing the top spot by 14 more pts than last time. I still think we can challenge for it ... start formulating your transfer strategies.
moment, knowing full well that this is not likely to last. Yet another gain in the McLaren GPL, from 302nd to 266th (16140 players in total at the moment). I'm especially happy since I'm staying within striking distance from the overall lead, currently 61 pts. What isn't so positive is the F1T bunch is still slipping slightly, the gap to the lead has gone from 45 to 59 pts. But me, I'm recording my best position in our mini league ... for the time being!
