Driver Skill v. The Robot v. Strategy

So..what has played the largest part in this years game? Is it driver skill or the machine? Some people have been saying that its the driver sill alone that determines the outcome of the match.

It seems to me that its really a combination of a lot of factors. First of all, the strategy matters a great deal. I am not gonna reveal our secrets here at 696, but we have a very elabroate scouting and intellegence network that we use to decide the best strategy to win each mach. At that, many of our matches are won before we play. The robot is also important. If you compare that years robot with last years on our team, there is a difference. Lastly, driver skill plays a part. We have good drivers who have pratice. This has insured our success in nearly all matches.

What do you think?
