The short answer is 'confidence', or lack thereof. Year after year the car that wins this contest does so not because it is necessarily the fastest or the grippiest, or the one that does the biggest skids. It is the car that, before it does anything else, provides the driver with the confidence to wring its neck. If then it also turns out to have a surplus of all the more easily measured or observable talents, it's provide the driver with that crucial confidence.
