The time for expiry is midnight CET at two days before race date. F.ex if race date is sunday, 19.04.2009, entry will expire on friday, 17.04.2009 at midnight

Hi Freddie,

Since the expiry is always midnight (CET) 2 days before the race date, I should be able to figure this out after all. And once I understand the 'formula' (so to speak) I won't even need to bother subscribing to the reminder emails! :)

When you say "race date", I assume that means the date of the race in the Country holding the race. And just to make it easier (for me) to understand, instead of saying 'midnight' CET which can be used in the context of day before or day after, for this explination please use 11:59pm CET as the expiry to submit our picks...... So with the F1 Chinese GP (race) taking place on Sunday April 19th in China, what date (CET) at 11:59pm is the expiry? Is Friday the 17th at 11:59pm CET correct?

Knowing my time zone is 6-hours behind CET, and with all the F1 GP race dates listed on formula1.com, with you confirming the above I'll be able to figure out the expiry dates/times for all the upcomming F1 GP weekends very easily. :)

Thanks,
---Lorne

Hi Lorne,

If the race is on a sunday local time then the expiry is 11:59 pm or 23:59 on the friday before the race, in the case of the China GP on 17.04.2009 at 23:59

Hope all is clear now

Good luck and happy race picking

Freddie

I have NOT lost my mind — I have it backed up on tape somewhere.
