This is an article posted by Peter Ives. I have reposted it here. One
thing to point out is that the actual physical draft is not affected
only the Grudges sytem. When sharing a draft (by pressing R2 on PS2)
you are just trying to make friends with the guy you sharing that
draft with and thats it, nothing more.
Hope this is of some help to you. Found it at 'the armchair empire'
website:

'The most notable addition is the new alliances and grudge system.
Your
performance dictates how difficult or easy a race can be for you. If
you
race like a maniac and hit your opponents and knock them off the track
youll end up making enemies. During, or at the end of each race a red
or green icon appears above certain racers who either have a grudge or
have an alliance with you green represents alliance, red represents a
grudge. Both grudges and alliances are also represented by
percentages,
Naturally the higher the percentage, the greater the grudge or
alliance.
Having an alliance with another racer can cause him to allow you to
pass
or share a draft quite frequently. Having a grudge will cause your
opponent to give you a bump at every opportune moment, which can cause
you to lose the race. The best part of the grudge and alliance system
is
that it lasts throughout your career or season mode.'
