The Schu Shoo Punt (closed)

The Schu Shoo: Play this Pitlane Punt

This punt has now closed.

Mick Schumacher is battling to keep his seat at Haas^. We wouldn't normally do a second punt about one driver, but this feels like a big moment.

Has Mick's many crashes put a dent in his career? Will he be saved by another team?

Bet that any time in the next three weeks that Schumacher will lose his 2023 Haas drive. Read on to play this Punt.

The bet:

  • Bet that Mick Schumacher will lose his 2023 Haas seat any time in the next three weeks.
  • The announcement must happen within 21 days of this Punt being played.
  • This applies to Schu quitting or being dropped by his team. Either way will count.
  • Bribe: It if becomes clear he will be dropping out of F1 altogether for 2023, you will win an extra 5 points.
The odds:
  • 2:1 odds.
  • Odds revised 9 Oct 2022
The stake:

  • Up to 10 of your Losers Points.

Odds and stakes are likely to change as the situation develops.

Example:

  • If your bet was 2:1 odds with a 10-point stake, and Schumacher loses his 2023 seat to a mop with googly eyes on, then you win this Punt. Instead of paying your stake, you get 20 points.
  • If his 2023 seat options run out within the time period of this Punt, and it seems clear he won't be an F1 driver at the start of next season, you will get an extra 5 points.

Deadline:

  • There is no deadline for this Punt, although it will be withdrawn at short notice at some point.

Result: 

  • The result will be announced in the scores for the race following the decision, or the race following the three week period, where your stake will be paid or your winnings given.
