Dudley posted:I've not seen the race itself (because some oval office spoiled me on it) but Malukas finished on the lead lap and Jimmie, who is barely a rookie by any remotely sane measure appears to have hosed it into a wall. Rookie of the year isn't based purely on finishing position: quote:The award is voted on by a panel of judges, which is composed of selected members of the media, historians, and a handful of other experts. The voting takes place the night of the race (or the morning after), and does not necessarily go to the highest-finishing rookie. Noteworthy accomplishments during qualifying, regardless of the respective race result, have frequently been a factor in voting. A rookie who competitively runs up front during the race, passes many cars, and/or leads laps (but ultimately drops out) can also garner consideration over another rookie who finished higher, but did so merely by surviving attrition. Other contributing attributes can include personal attitude, sportsmanship, professionalism, and interaction with driver coaches, fans, and media. People melt down every year the award goes to someone other than the highest finishing rookie, like with Alonso.
