If the drivers are for it I'm sure it'd be good, but I don't understand how that would work... would the shakedown results give the reverse starting order for day 1, or all three days?

Even the current system would be fine if drivers weren't allowed to know splits and times during the last stage of the day. Stopping any non-emergency radio contact between teams and drivers would do it, but it'd be difficult to enforce. Drivers could still slow down at the end of the stage in the hopes of getting a better position, but without knowing what was going on, it'd be a risky move.
