2010 IRL Driver Rankings

Post by mlittle » Wed Mar 10, 2010 8:25 am

After numerous consultations w/motorsports experts and analysts, numerous trips into the proverbial whiskey bottle and numerous glances into the proverbial crystal ball, it is time once again to release the initial set of driver rankings for 2010.

These initial rankings are based on the following factors.............
---Wins
---Poles
---Finishes(2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th)
---2009 Points Finish
---a Team "fudge factor"(the better the team in 2009, the bigger the 'adjustment')
---my own gut feelings about the season as a whole


With that................here are the initial driver rankings for 2010. :lol: :) 8) :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:



1st} Dario Franchitti, 10 pts
2nd} Ryan Briscoe, 9 pts
3rd} Helio Castroneves, 8 pts
4th} Scott Dixon, 7 pts
5th} Graham Rahal, 6 pts
6th} Danica Patrick, 5 pts
7th} Tony Kanaan, 4 pts
8th} Hideki Mutoh, 3 pts
9th} Will Power, 2 pts
t-10th}[10]Marco Andretti, 1 pt
t-10th}[11]Dan Wheldon, 1 pt
