He only has 7 due to the playoffs. In a season where every race matters he doesnt…

I agree though, this doesn’t necessarily warrant hatred towards Jimmie Johnson; the man was just doing his job. You can’t blame a guy for doing what he gets paid to do.
]]>Sooooo right! Like don’t get me wrong, I like Jimmie and he’s one of the greatest drivers, but this playoff system doesn’t reward the best driver of the year a championship anymore!
