POINTS TWEAK? -- For the second time in little more than a month, NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France has strongly hinted that changes are coming to the Sprint Cup points system, which was last overhauled prior to the 2011 season.
"We're not satisfied we have the exact balance we want with winning, consistency, points, running for a championship," France said Tuesday night on Motor Racing Network's "NASCAR Live," radio show. "We think we can make some tweaks that continue to incentivize risk-taking, racing harder and so on. We're looking at that. We'll undoubtedly be coming with things that put the incentive on winning races and competing at the highest level."
Last month in Las Vegas, France said NASCAR can improve its points system. "Do I think we have it perfect in terms of the right incentives to win? I don't think we do," France said. "I think we can do -- I'm not willing to say exactly what it'll be, but I think we can do a little bit better."
