The Driver's Championship counts towards drivers. It doesn't matter if a driver switches teams/cars, he keeps his points because it is indicative of HIS PERFORMANCE throughout the season.
TRspitfirefan, it wouldn't make sense to count each car as a "team" since most cars keep the same driver line-up throughout the year.
As an example, look at the Grand-Am standings. Excluding Ganassi, the standings for the drivers and teams are near identical...doesn't make much sense really.
