I always thought the mechanics were competing, not the racers. Tv stations try to hype up drivers but I just find the racing really boring to watch. However, engineering a car that goes really, reallly, reallllly fast is something I get a lot of amusement from observing.
So randomly forcing teams to be separated from their cars seems almost cruel. Like, how do we even know that the buyer has the expertise to maintain it or make it go faster? What if they can't even comprehend the technology, so they just run it till it breaks and then toss it on the scrap heap?

Danica Patrick won a single race (Japan) in her career of 116 IndyCar races and was eventually "retired" because she couldn't win often enough.
