Additional ideas for scoring next year

Had some additional ideas for scoring:

  1. How about some bonus points for correctly guessing the number of times a safety car is deployed on the track? 
  2. A points bonus if a driver finishes higher than their teammate.
  3. A points penalty if a driver gets a grid penalty (could be tied to either the engine or the chassis)

For the safety car  bonus....One item I've noticed in our league is that most people end up picking similar chassis/engines/drivers to maximize their points. As a result, people who are at the bottom of the league have no realistic shot at catching up throughout the season once they get too far behind (as everyone ends up scoring roughly the same number of points at each race).  Providing additional opportunities to score (as with the pitstop strategy and bonus question) would help with this.  

For the driver bonus...that might help get some points even if the driver is on a weak team or is at the back of the grid.  

The grid penalty would be interesting and could cause some drama in the leagues. 

Thanks!
