Nope....its amusing me too.....but most silly things do.People are missing an obvious point: it is NOT nicky versus rossi - if it were then they would be buying their own plane ticket to the track for a running race. teams are part of it, dnf's are part of it, poor tires are part of it, skill is part of it, and so is judgement. perhaps nicky was using judgement to decrease racing risk, thus give him more consistent (yet lower) points return? its true that rossi had to ride brilliantly towards the end of the season, and hayden had to be conservative.....but that is all part of it.in short you are confusing "championship" with "most skillful racer". championship is really "most consistently fast team member".....
