Yes, I agree with You. Giving some points to more drivers doesn't really hurt anyone since the better ones are given more. It brings only good for sponsor relations.

Maybe some people forget, but WRC has always (since 1979) maintained top ten scoring positions, until the FIA decided to base it on the F1 point system from 1997 onwards.
While it kind of looks like an afterthought (I mean, only a few days before the actual championship starts!), I find this a much better point system than the 2003-2009 version. Also, people shouldn't look so much at the present, but rather at the future. This might be another step in the right direction to get more manufacturers in future WRC.

I'm glad to see points down to 10th again. It's as it should be. The same cannot be said of points down to 10th in F1.

actually If I think back I can say that it is good thing to give point to top 10. It is much easier for privateers to bring to their sponsor the following information: "As a result of superb driving and hard work we earned 1 championship point" and it does not sound so well: "As a result of our hard work we reached to top 10 and missed out one point by just a few minutes."
It is clear that F1 type of system didn't suit to WRC. There are only 20 cars in F1 but there might be 120 cars in WRC.
Giving points to the lower positioned drivers might encourage them to fight between 11th, 10th, 9-th place as well.
And for the final remark. In Estonian championship. When you are running in national class the all the cars that reach to finish earn at least 1 point.Colins Crest = Möldri Mätas
