No way, i have to disagree, hotlappers (as they seem to be defined here bt
there gplrank) are better race drivers ... the coment about the 1000 monkeys
relates more to the slow drivers producing good race as the fast ones. In
SRM and MoG and in UKGPL the better more consistent racing comes from the
top divisions, not the lower ones. And all these league have the top
division full of drivers that here would be called hotlappers or insects.
