F1 Connectivity Innovation Prize

Deadline: 2015-09-08
Award: $25,000

Challenge 2 for the 2015 F1 Connectivity Innovation Prize set by Formula One Management is to design a prediction tool that asks F1 followers to forecast how each Grand Prix will unfold, and submit their predictions for each team and driver. The tool should also enable Formula One Management to score the predictions and rank the fans in order of the accuracy of their predictions vis a vis the actual outcome.

Your challenge is to build an online platform to enable fans to tender a full forecast of the driver and team strategies and how they will fare over the course of a Grand Prix, based on the available data from practice session performance and the race conditions AND create a framework by which to rank order each prediction to identify and reward the fans that estimate the most accurate outcome.
