KenJennings Posted May 1, 2017 Author Share Posted May 1, 2017 One thing about the new points system that bugs me: the winner doesn't always get the most points. They should add a clause to the rules that if the winner doesn't earn the most points in the field, then they automatically get one point more than whoever did.

Reward consistency, by all means, by the winner should always get the most points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reward consistency, by all means, by the winner should always get the most points.I look at it this way and I know there are scenarios where this would not hold true but if a guy runs in the mid 20's all day and then wins late because of pit strategy or untimely caution or something like that, that guy shouldn't necessarily get more points than the guy who finished 2nd and ran top 5 all day.

To reward consistency throughout the race.I think what "Monster" wants is more aggressive driving throughout the race. The "riding around" until the final 20 laps for the past few years was mind numbing. So I believe that drivers like Jimmie Johnson will realise to get the most points you will need to be aggressive throughout the race. I think it's a win/win for the future of the sport. Just my opinion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he should- he won the race. The is the first time in NASCAR history that it has been possible for the 2nd place car to outscore the winner. Even if the winner only carries an advantage of one point, sobeit. The winner WON the damn race, and however he got there, he got there. Nobody else did better- that goes for the whole day.

Having the occasional race winner get a few less points than the second place car isn't going to have much impact on who makes the chase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
