Useful Information:

Driver suggestion: While not widely regarded as the most consistent driver in the field, Patrick De Wit is the only driver who has scored points in all four races of the season to date. However, 5th on the standings, he is the first driver in the table yet to climb to the podium. Can the dutch driver make his first rostrum appearance of the season at the scene of his maiden Pole Position in 2007?

Useful Information:

Driver suggestion: Despite not climbing to the podium in any of his previous World Championship races, Philipp Puschke took everyone by surprise and celebrated his maiden WC victory at Montreal, in what was also his first podium finish after being close several times. Despite his cost obviously going up after his victory, Philipp is still only the 4th most expensive driver in the 2013 FSR Fantasy League and is currently selected by only 11% of the managers. Can the German surprise again and make it two in a row?
Interesting Facts: After 2 FSR Fantasy League rounds this season, the drivers of the Precision Motorsports and GhostSpeed Racing teams are the best-scoring ones so far. And in both cases, there is an incredible team parity. Precision team-mates Bono Huis and Ivar Kalamees have scored 53 Fantasy points each, while GhostSpeed drivers Morgan Morand and Philipp Puschke both scored 48. Which drivers will end the parity in their favour at Silverstone?
Penalties, penalties everywhere: Morgan Morand, one of the most selected drivers in the 2013 FSR Fantasy League, has received a Back of the Grid penalty for a Qualifying infraction in the Canadian GP. Should he take part in the race, he will not be in contention for Poleman, Top Ten or Team Leader points. However, should he finish in the points, he may score many Overtaker points.

After taking his second WC victory and becoming the fourth winner in six races this season, can the Estonian make it two in a row in a race without top driver retirements?
Interesting facts: After the opening 3 rounds of the 2013 FSR Fantasy League, Ivar Kalamees is the driver who scored most WC points during the period (61), followed by Philipp Puschke (43) and Jernej Simoncic (39).

Interesting facts: After the first 4 rounds of the 2013 FSR Fantasy League, Ivar Kalamees, Patrick De Wit and Blair Disley are the only drivers to reach the finish line in all 4 races.
