Jeff Gordon used to be at the top of the leaderboard almost every year. The problem is that he hasn’t been able to get a great final result in several years.  However, he has won at least one race every year so far, except for his rookie year… and this year.  This year he has been unable to hold his own all that great against Jimmy Johnson and the others.  Gordon has been in the sport since 1993, but he doesn’t seem to have it this year.  To be fair, a lot of racers are having trouble this year, but Jeff Gordon seems to have been completely off his game for much of the season. Next time around, he’ll surely do better, but he is clearly disappointed in the way things have gone.
