no, they are all Nextel Cup drivers but they are ranked, first teer are the top drivers, then second teer are middle of the road and last teer is like Kyle Petty and drivers close to his style. Anyway, you would only be able to chose the drivers 10 times during the year so you would have to mix and match the whole season. You just have to watch how you use your drivers. Say if you use Stewart 8 times before mid season, you are in trouble. More like, spreading out the use of drivers. It is actually pretty fun.
