The sound of the title of the thread might be misleading, because this has nothing to do with preferential treatment.
Two teams are on course to repeating the 1999 Williams scenario of one driver scoring all team's points in a season. And these teams are no backmarkers, but solid midfielders like Williams and Renault, scoring a notable amount of points.
How many other similar cases can be recalled?(I mean cases, where #1 driver scored quite a fair amount of points, not like a backmarker team with one driver getting merely a couple of points with the other one(s) ending up on zero) It almost happened with BAR 2005. :p : Similar cases can be found in Ligier 1981 and Lotus 1972 as well, although they were clearly above average and more or less top teams.
