Understandable point Boots, but the problem is due to the fact of having a very speciale race, INDY500, where 33 entrants race, and the last gets one point.
Therefore the 20-22th of a regular round cannot get less than 13-14 points.

In any case it's true that not only does such a points system make it difficult to catch up, but also to conquer a large gap.
Thus, if Dan was in such a large advantage over the runner-up, it means he dominated the season much more than the standing say.
I mean, with a different point system his point lead would have been way stronger.
