A lot fans came to the wrong conclusions regarding this season. Many think Gordon choked and lost it in the final four races; what many don't realize is that Gordon scored more points than any other driver during the last ten races. It wasn't at the end of the season that the title was lost, it was the lost points in all of those previous races that finally showed how catastrophic those results were in the long run.
If you give Jeff roughly 10th place finishes in each of the first two plate races of 1996 races instead of back-pack finishes, he would have won the title by about 100 points. Jeff got owned by gremlins not of his own making ala Bill Elliott in 1985.

This was the greatest year of my life. I was always a fan of the Corn Flakes car with TeHas Terry Labonte. Also, this is my second favorite nascar related series after Coffee with Kyle.
Jeff's comeback at the start of the year alone is worth praise and respect.. he came from being 40 something in points to being in the top 10 very fast, not many else coulda done it.

It's what Benny Parsons used to say in his analogy about golf, "It's not about the best shots you make but sometimes how much can you get out of the bad shots." Terry had quite a fair amount of problems himself, but didn't get 40th place finishes two weekends in a row like Jeff started in the beginning of the year. Jeff was 43rd in points after the first two races.
@@Jtplaysgames21 However, even back then, it was a rarity for the Champion to not also be the winningest driver of the year. Hell, in every single one of Jeff Gordon's championship seasons, he won the most races. And all of them were under the Winston Cup format.

What if Erik Jones was way more consistent instead of pissing away race wins and top 5s, especially during the Busch series Inaugural Chase. Daniel Suarez finished top 5 in each race meanwhile.
Man this is my childhood I remember so many sundays with my father watching him work around the house and listening to these races on the radio. Hate to admit I’m a grown man tearing up over these memories
Jeff Gordon was my favourite driver as a kid 1996 was an amazing season with 10 WINS But wins aren't everything Consistency is what matters Not anymore though
There were 4 times where Jeff wasn't able to win the championship when he likely should've. The first time was the one time where the syatem had no factor. Terry came up clutch where Gordon came short.
Despite the 10 wins, too many bad finishes did the 24 in that year. The #5 team wanted it more, especially after Terry broke his hand and still finished 5th at Phoenix. It also took them half the season to recover the points from starting off 42nd and 40th the first 2 races. The next 2 years, the competition would not be so lucky. The guy won 47 races in 5 seasons. Remarkable.
What iceberg didn’t mention was that down the stretch in those last four races terry had an average finish of 3rd Jeff had an average finish of 12.75 that in my opinion is really what did him in in 1996.
Brickyard 400. He doesn't cut the tire and he wins the championship. Terry scored like 160 points that race because he finished 3rd, Gordon finished 37th so he scored 52. If Gordon had finished 12th that race, he'd have won the championship by 4 points.
Had Irvan not tried to kill the entire field at Talladega in summer 96, this would’ve been a completely different title race. Earnhardt was leading the race and his injuries took him out of the title race.
I know this isn’t the main part of the video, but I have to say that I will NEVER understand how Jeff got blamed for that Talladega crash when Mark was the one that squeezed him into the wall. It almost seems like Mark was such a nice driver that no one wanted to admit that he was at fault.
Jeff Gordon best championship run 1997 10 wins including Winston million Daytona 500 Coca-Cola 600 and Mountain Dew Southern 500 become million-dollar Jeff greatest magical NASCAR history moment of all time clinched his 2nd NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship
Urban washed up into Marlin at Talladega and turned him into Dale. Nothing he could do. I will always be an Earnhardt fan, and I miss him so much, but do not blame Marlin for his death.
Jeff Gordon always had a habit of stuggling to finish well at season's end. The late season decline almost cost him the championship in 1995 and 1997. If not for a blown engine during the Fall Charlotte race in 1996, Gordon would be champion.
@@matthewdaley746 Yes indeed...and there was more to come throughout his career. I believe during the 1996 season, Jeff Gordon had the lowest average finish when he finished outside of the top ten of any season in his career. I believe it was like an average finish of 32nd. Pretty bad.
Your ending point about what if Jeff would've done better at Daytona and Rockingham is a moot point. Terry finished 24th in the Daytona 500 after leading the most laps in that race when a piece of debris killed the engines power and he too like Jeff blew the engine at Rockingham, funny thing is they were running 1st and 2nd when they both fell out. Terry did just as poorly at those races as Jeff did. Terry deserved that championship, his 2 timely wins and consistency were enough to fend off Jeff's 10 wins. Awesome year that would not be rewarded like that in today's point system.
Missing Rings: Kyle Busch from now on for every year he doesn't get one. As an Earnhardt fan, I want Kyle to win 8, so that JJ isn't in the conversation anymore.
As much as I hate to say it, Jeff Gordon ruined NASCAR. He made it nationwide and highly corporate, which, although popularized it for about 15 years, ultimately led to its downfall. He opened the gap for the cookie cutter drivers and created a culture that prioritized wealth and marketability over humbleness and hard work. Less Southern drivers, more market drivers=loss of base. I was born after Earnhardt's death but I probably would've been an intimidator fan if I grew up in the 90's. And this is coming from a Connecticut kid. Nothing against Gordon, since he certainly earned all of his achievements. However he got caught up in the glamor of celebrity life and indirectly created a pathway to the sport's demise. Edit: Bring back NW and Rockingham! Worst decisions NASCAR has ever made.
@@ChrisBrown-pz2gu Not saying he wasn't, however he did make marketability too important when it comes to picking drivers. Drivers were much more humble and relatable before Gordon, and look at the drivers that came after him and compare them to those of the 80s and early 90s
