I'm not saying that the driver is not important, but what you are saying, in essence, is that the potential of the car means absolutely nothing compared to the skill of the driver, you're just taking the car's abilities completely out of the situation and you can't really do that. I'm saying theres an interaction effect between the two, you are saying the only important factor is driver skill. If this is not what you're saying, I apologize, but that is certainly how it looks to me.
