"The ???It???s Not How You Finish, It???s How You Start??? Award: This is another Loopie that likely won???t be displayed during the holiday season. Given to the driver who failed to close races, this year???s winner is Juan Pablo Montoya. Statistically, Montoya was the worst ???Closer??? in the sport. The ???Closer??? statistic counts the number of positions gained or lost over the last 10% of races. Montoya lost a total of 116 positions over the last 10% of races, the most in the series. That explains his excellent average start of 11.6 and his disappointing average finish of 18.0."

IT'S CLEAR WHAT THIS TEAM NEEDS TO IMPROVE FOR THE 2011 SEASON....
