Sorry to be contentious. Not normally my style.
I knew you'd glom onto that so I added the edit before you even posted.
Anyway, why do you think this? Where is the data?
If it's somehow supported, why would you think it's anything more than bike handling is somewhat proportional to experience and p12 fields tend to have the most experienced riders?
But seriously, this discussion has come up 15 times and I've asked 15 times for _any_ data that points to like crashes/mile/participant for any category of racing and it's never ever been even hinted at that such a thing exists.
And I'm not trying to be willful or anything other than pragmatic.
