And I think he chose his words carefully, he said median, not average. Of course - to paraphrase Greg Wilson[1] - if one were to go further and compare the "best" driver to the "worst" driver, the difference would be to the power of infinity because the worst driver is dead. The comparison is not useful.
I'd love to see some studies on this sort of stuff though.
