Maybe someone with a bit of time on their hands (or who can be bothered) could work out what the manu champ would look like this year if you could score (and so block) points with three cars instead of two. Would Hyundai actually be beating M-Sport? I doubt it.
I think if the rule came in the fans would certainly benefit. More seats, more cars on stages. Bigger competition. It's important for the teams involved but personally I couldn't care less about the manufacturers title.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

are you kidding me? how? i want a long explanation please.
To be honest my wish was that Ford would come back or some major sponsor would help Wilson and he could retain the same line-up. Tänak is getting on really well with Ogier and as you see M-sport is kicking everyones ass this season. Evans has also progressed and shows great speed. and i think they would have been even better next season.
But now it seems they will have a hard time next year.Last edited by EstWRC; 5th September 2017 at 19:02.

I think everyone would be gutted to see M-Sport get cleaned out. Just as much as everyone was so thrilled for them last year to get Ogier. They were too good - everyone noticed
I guess you can compare it to football. You develop players (like Tanak) and then without the financial support they go to a bigger club. At least in football you get a transfer fee. Wouldn't surprise me if Malcolm has something written into his deal with Ott (he saved his career multiple times and developed him) but that's pure speculation from me.
If nothing else at least this finally gives Malcolm some leverage with Ford. No way he can guarantee any form of success next year without his two top guys.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

4 cars rule with existing point system will make retirement+rally2 more significant than currently is, hence better competition.

What exactly is the proposal with the 4 car rule. Best 2 out of the 4 score, or still nominations?
