yup, carl edwards, ryan newman, greg biffle, juan montoya, and clint bowyer, they ain't a'won a race yet this year. yet, they continue to perserver over kyle busch, who has won 4 races. kyle being spread wayyy to thin, what with his overcommitment to run all 3 junctures this year - da trucks, nationwide, and the sprint cup. meanwhile, kyle continues to subsist in 13th place, just out of the chase - being spread way to thin for someone of kyle busch's demeanor, class, and impetus. not to mention, of course, the very bad karma that kyle busch has bought himself by his continuing beratement of his team this year - always blaming them when 'the team' loses. |
and gaining points for the chase:
After the 26 races, include the 13th-place driver into the chase if he
has at least one win, 14th if he has at least 2, 15th if he has at
least 3, and so on - however, as a "penalty" for this "wild card"
qualifying, the number of wins that driver needed to advance into the
top 12 are subtracted from his total both for purposes of the "10
bonus points per win" rule (e.g. right now, Kyle would need one win to
advance from 13th to 12th, so he would start with 5030 points instead
of 5040) and in case of a tie in points at the end (assuming the first
tiebreaker is still "most wins in the full season".)
(We'll live with the current system, but that doesn't mean we can't
gripe about it.)

However, your comment makes it quite clear that I am much more of a
NASCAR fan than you can ever hope to be. (Besides, if I was a KB fan,
I wouldn't have included the part about deducting points, so he would
start the chase tied for first.)
My preferred system is, get rid of the chase and go back to the old
method; there was nothing wrong with it. I suppose now you're going
to call me a Jeff Gordon fan, since he would have won the 2004 and
2007 titles had there not been a chase...
