    Did PG set a new record?

    7 out of 21 stages completed, and still scoring points? Do you think Petter sees the humour in this?

    I'm betting he doesn't, and rightly so.

    If Petter could have used Superrally for the last three stages, he would be just one place from a podium, and Subaru would just lost one manu point…

    Isn't that insane? (rhetorical question). This just shows how random these rules work. In theory you could score manu points with just the 3 last stages completed, of which one is a ssssss.

    I've already complained against this some time ago, but didn't quite get much support.

    With this system, it's theoretically possible to finish in last 2 positions, covering about quarter of the distance, and still take maximum points.

    Not exactly what this sport should be about, IMO!

    The whole superrally rule is crap, rally is partly a endurance sport, retirement should mean retairment.

    I agree Tomi, no superrally and more service, then we see the real rally drivers again.
