What would be yours? Mention it in the comments section below. Last date for the contest is 17th of March before the 1st round begins.
Note: If you got both the standings and the points right you would win the mega prize of both Fritz 17 and Mega Database 2020. This would mean you have to get 16 parameters correct. While if there is no one who gets all of them right, then the next prize of one DVD is for the person who guesses all the eight places right (without taking the points points into consideration).
