Uh, 1/81 is not a good win ratio in anything, ever. Neither is a 4/81 podium ratio. She is not a top tier pro driver by any stretch of the imagination.

I cant say i have been behind the wheel of an F1, so I cant judge how hard it must be to win a race… But racing in general, it isnt allways about winning and top 3’s that make you a great driver. Consistancy builds championships. LOL which I see she has 0 soooo, that isnt a good point for my arguement. haha.

I watch MX so i will compair it to something i know. Look at K-Dub, or some of the older MX guys. Bubba, RC and Reed win every race there is, practicly… yet the guys that are next in line as far as skill are consitantly in the top 10, or even top 5, and place wayyyy up in the championship ranks. and have been making a living and bringing in fans and $$ for the sport for a long time.

Actually it is. Consistancy is worthless unless you are consistantly placing well (winning, podiums). She does not and therefore doesnt win championships.

I don’t think you get it, so let me break it down.

Tits= money + sponsors + fans

Money + sponsors + fans ![http://docs.autodesk.com/ACD/2010/ENU/AutoCAD%202010%20User%20Documentation/images/PTDCPM/Gator-All/English/not_equal.png](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/1/3/13cedf185d9d964abad081c4e081f5c92c35573c.png) skill

Not dening that she isnt winning championships. I see that. but she is no slouch. she sits in 7th spot rigth now in the 09 season. Tony Kanaan, Graham Rahal & Helio Castroneves are the first three ahead. To be nipping at the heals of those guys, you must be doing something right.

And you can win a championship without winning or allways placing top three. There are alot of drivers or riders in sports that win alot, but alos crash alot and fuck up the rest of the time, and they dont come out on top in the end.

She sits 7th out of 40 teams on the standings. Unless her tits, money sponsors and fans are hitting the pedals and steering for her… I call that skill

Who cares about other sports? We’re talking about the IRL. She doesnt win enough points to win championships. Who cares if she’s ‘nipping at the heels’ of good drivers, nipping at heels doesnt win. Winning is all that matters.

Unless you have tits in which case you’ll be able to jump to NASCAR and be a mid-pack driver over there too.
