Or perhaps she has lost the touch for lesser cars.
Way back when, Tom Sneva was hot property, having won Indy and all. I went
to the Rosemont Horizon (Or the All-State Arena as they call it now) to
watch the Midget (USAC, not MG) races. Yes, inside the arena; they took up
the flooring all the way down to the bare concrete, sprayed Coke syrup on it
and went racing on a 1/10 mile oval. Anyway, the promoter paid big bucks to
bring in Tom Sneva. Those of us who did not much care for the guy were
highly amused warching him zigzag around the oval. He never did get the hang
of driving those twitchy things. Having resoundingly lost the heat races, he
still got into the feature race on a "promoter's option" (of course) and
proceeded to take out several better drivers by his ineptitude. I guess that
by the time you have become a highly trained Indy car driving machine, you
are all ready to embarrass the heck out of yourself on anything else. YMMV
