Successful racers lose many they should have won and win some they shouldn't. The list is long, but you could start with Unser Sr and Jr who both won when lead cars puked out toward the end. They were masters at putting themselves into the top 3-5 positions late in the race, ready to pounce when the lead car(s) conked out. Foyt said something to the effect...You take 'em any way you can get 'em. He lost many he should have won.
