End of Season Trophies
|
Question on the trophy front, as the end of the season is nigh!
Since Dominik is destroying everyone and has the top 4 spots in the world championship, what happens to the silver and bronze trophies?
- Will he get all three on his profile?
- Will his profile just get gold and the other two go to no one?
- Does the first person after him get silver?
Thought I'd ask, as I can't recall a season when someone has had multiple teams in trophy positions.

I had that problem, too, in the National Championship... and now it's not a problem anymore... just look at how terribly a silver or bronze trophy would interfere with the perfect order in that trophy column. 
But the best way to deal with this issue is to make sure Dominik will be ranked on one podium place only after the race. Let's do it (though I can't help much myself).

There's a kind of reward in nobody else getting 2nd or 3rd? A statement of total domination?

But the logic is: If the teams of the World Championship winner get second and third place aswell, they are literally preventing the best team of the second most successful Constructor from grabbing Silver and Bronze - are Silver and Bronze medals therefore not awarded in such a year? That has to mean that the second and third place remain unfilled which is not the case obviously, as there was a reason that no other Constructor *might* get second and third place this year.
This reason consisted of many hours of hard work but goes unrewarded in the end.

Dominik - surely the issue is that the trophies are assigned to an owner in the career summary and not to specific teams?
Incidentally, if you ever want to take a year off, that would benefit *my* trophy case.

A Big Thank You!

Just wanted to say thank you from Alaska for a very fun time and thanks to you, an additional way to enjoy F1 throughout the season. All your work makes for a wonderful time for many of us.
Have a good "off season" and cheers from way up North.

Copied!
But why is it so?
In the World Championship, the two drivers from the same team can also get Gold and Silver in the same race and are awarded, if that successful, with Gold and Silver for the overall performance at the end of the season.
Not that I need a Silver and Bronze medal as morale boost, but my "other" teams deserved their 2nd and 3rd place and their performance wasn't worse than the performance of the 2nd and 3rd ones of the previous years!

If the top 3 teams are owned by one player, only the gold trophy is awarded.
This procedure already has been used in the National Championship competitions for the previous seasons.
