Nah, that's not the killer. Lightning is almost as bad for 2nd place as it is for first, and POW hits everybody equally, except for those lucky enough to have a ramp to hit or skilled enough to reduce the impact.
The real killer is having 2nd place be just close enough to launch red shells, then having 2nd place get a triple red shell after you've had your ass-armor blown off with with a blue shell/lightning bolt/whatever. If second place doesn't have range for red shells, you're sitting pretty.
Honestly, it's much harder when you aren't in first. Everybody in the middle is subject to a barrage of koopa shells, bob-ombs, super mushrooms and bullet bills. By getting away from that bloodbath, first place can cruise relatively unmolested in the front while all the other crabs drag each other back into the bucket. If you really think the occaisional blue shell is harder to cope with than all those other attacks, then enjoy your time in the bloodbath.

You've obviously never played 150cc.
Occasional and blue shell are not in the same sentence.

Haha. I have one star rating or better on all Grand Prix and about 8k VBR.
It's true that blue shells seem to be more common in 150cc than they are online, though.
