And as a postscript (and notice NASCAR has not touted this fact), the winner of the Daytona 500 is not only not the points leader (that would be Carl Edwards), nor would he win the championship should he win every race for the rest of the season. Because he is registered in the Nationwide series for his points, he garners no points in the Cup series regardless of how well he does. Has France & Co. shot themselves in the foot again?
