Why do they not have the same chances? I think they do, but john has just been that much better. The guy is unstoppable, he has a drive that no other driver except maybe garlits has. JMO
    It is a fact that john is a very talented driver, and has worked hard to build his empire. But he has an advantage that most the other teams do not have. Being a driver with the championship stattus he has, he gets to choose when his car runs. If you watch closely he always runs last, after all his team mates run. They gather valuable car and track track performance information from his previous running team mates all the way until it is his turn to run. And 9 times out of 10 they make a final adjustment to the car just seconds before they fire up the car for his pass. To me that is an advantage,

    That is how schumacher runs all thier cars as well, Tony runs last. You bet if Anton Brown keeps running so good he will be looking for another job about mid season, Like Melanie Troxel was found mid season. not to mention most teams buy most of thier parts. Team Force hand makes all thier own blocks, heads, blowers and injectors in thier shop to thier standards, who can afford to do that. I just find it very well script written anymore to watch it on TV anymore, Force, Shoemaucer, Anderson.
