Gotcha risk — resolution-rule assessment

Show full assessmentShow less

The resolution criteria are straightforward and rely directly on official information published by Formula 1. The market resolves based on the official driver standings at the conclusion of the final race of the 2026 season, incorporating F1's official tiebreak rules if a points tie occurs. Participants should note the early resolution provision: if the driver becomes mathematically eliminated from championship contention before the season concludes, the market will resolve to negative immediately. An explicit backstop deadline of March 31, 2027, handles potential season cancellations or extreme delays by resolving to a neutral fallback.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the listed driver that finishes 1st in the driver standings for the 2026 F1 season. This market will resolve as soon as the official results of the final scheduled race of the 2026 F1 season are known. If multiple drivers tie for first place in the drivers standings, this market will resolve according to the tiebreak procedure used by F1 to determine the 2026 F1 Drivers’ champion. If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed driver to win the 2026 F1 Drivers Championship based on the rules of F1 (e.g., they are mathematically eliminated from contention), the corresponding market will resolve to “No”. If the F1 season is permanently canceled or has not been completed by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “Other”. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Formula 1.
