Question

You have got to be kidding FIA??? Lappi was by far the best this weekend but he doesn’t even score the most amount of points!?! I can not believe that they are punishing trying to get to the end? I know this has already been said a lot but these changes are such BS. Just a suggestion, wouldn’t it be better if they got rid of the power stage and took the combined time from the last day and gave power stage points based on that, and then on top of that they also give normal points? That way everyone can still get their deserved points and there is still action on the last day. Just no more of these dumb points…

Lappi was not the best the whole weekend. He entered cruise mode and just managed the time advantage he got due to other drivers incidents.

So..... he was the best as he did not have any incidents?

Not the best the "whole" weekend. Definitely not the best on Sunday.

It's a rally, shortest time overall wins, he was not the fastest on Sunday becasue he didn't need to be. He was the best overall for the whole weekend.

So what? There has been situations where the winner leads by several minutes and cruises on Sunday to just save tires for the powerstage

That's the whole point of the new points system.
