chemhead1 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
While a system for a championship focusing on consistency would possibly be more "fair" for the drivers, let's be honest: Fans don't pay to see a "points race".

That's the very reason why series are trying to make race wins even MORE valuable. Consistency was the reason that NASCAR now uses the Chase format. It's why some of the big international series are always considering more points to the winners.

I'll agree with you that a consistent driver makes a champion driver, but it's not what the fans want.
