this driver of the year thing is just crap,yeah Jr is an ok driver,winning one race this season doesn't make him the best though.these awards given to him are based solely on emotion,and that emotion isnt really for Jr at all,its about his father.and i'm tired of it,many drivers in Cup out drive him on a weekly basis,yet when he manages to get a top 5 hes a hero and gets all kinds of accolades.


  • Earnhardt Jr. voted first quarter Driver of the Year: Two-time Daytona 500 winner, #88-Dale Earnhardt Jr., was named winner of the first quarter Driver of the Year Award 2014. NASCAR's perennial fan favorite won title in the voting by an elite panel of American broadcasters and journalists Ending an almost two-year winless drought Earnhardt took the checkered flag in the season opening, and rain-delayed, Daytona 500. In the first quarter, which ended with race in Darlington, he added three second-place and one third-place finishes. In the voting Earnhardt, who drives the #88 National Guard Chevy for Hendrick Motorsports, had seven first-place ballots and totaled 88 points according to the Driver of the Year points system. Kevin Harvick, who drives the #4 Budweiser Chevy in NASCAR, and Australia's Will Power who drives the #12 Verizon Dallara-Chevrolet for Team Penske tied for second place with 80 points. Harvick had five first-place votes and Australia's Power had three. Chase Elliott burst into the limelight scoring 37 points, one first-place vote and finished fourth, in the ballot driving for Earnhardt's JRM Nationwide Series team. And Kyle Busch also garnered one first-place vote A total of 20 drivers scored points in the first quarter voting. In its' 48th year, the Driver of the Year title is unique. The panel of 17 leading journalists and broadcasters from across the U.S. determines the winner. In quarterly voting, points are awarded on a declining 9, 6, 4,3,2,1 basis. Earnhardt will receive a trophy and a Tissot wristwatch to be presented at a race weekend at to be determined.(DOTY)(5-1-2014)
 
Bill Elliot won that award for many years in a row, he wasn't necessarily the best either but he did have the best fan club that swayed the vote. Best advice is let the kids have their fun and ignore it.
 
Driver of the Year 'First Quarter'???
What a crock.
:173go1:
How can there be four awards for 'Driver of the Year' in a 12 month period?
Bloody Muppets!
