I've always wondered why a second coach is needed to discuss strategy before a match. As a driver, I always did it myself. That way I knew exactly what was going on. What takes up other drivers' time before matches? Last year and in 2001, I never had any trouble strategizing. Two coaches can be very useful on the field, mind you. 2001 definitly was nice for that. There was so much tunnel vision while driving since everything had to be done so precisely (aka, balancing) that having one coach be an extra set of eyes and ears was a real plus. Last year having a 5th person on the field would have been completely uneccesarry. I say let FIRST decide on a problem by problem basis.
