From contending for my first win to P20 in a single lap. This season is beating me up.

 

[Brentford]

Better than his average, so I guess I’ll take it.

Getting a 15th-place result from Heim isn't anything to write home about—well, maybe it is based on my past performances.

But it isn't that bad; he is talented and should have a great future, but he is still the type that most would consider to be a value pick.

IMO, a top ten with him would have been great.
A top twenty would be a .good, satisfactory, or "meets expectations" result.
Anything worse would be bad or a fail (again, just my subjective opinion).

So I am okay with a 15th place result.

Yeah, I ran him also and have the same feeling. I think that when it comes to non-regulars and guys in the back of the field, 15th is that cutoff for a "solid" run that you can feel pretty good about. Top 20 is okay/acceptable and anything outside of the top 20 is disappointing even though it's often where you end up with those guys. The other way, top 10 is "nice!" and top 5 is "hell yeah!".

I suppose an exception would be when we get a road course ringer that you really do expect/hope to run in the top 10. Those aren't as common as they used to be but like Zilisch last year.
