anyone changes closely dealing earlier final instead jack knows might move numbers race recognizes regular run season teams watched weeks year
I think in the world of The Chase, Jack recognizes that you have to make changes earlier in the year than you would in years past. We are dealing with a 26-race regular season instead of 36 races.

But I think anyone who has really watched our race teams closely this year knows that we have run better than the final numbers might look.
