It's pathetic, and we wonder why new Manufacturers won't sign up, or show interest. While the Ken Block/Monster news is hopeful, I'm not sure another year of Ford v Citroen is going to bring anything positive to the sport. There has been a distinct lack of build up to RallyGB, mainly because people/media just aren't bothered.Quote:

I don't understand this:
"End of day podium
A podium at the end of each day is pending the resolution of a Bonus Points system. A further study is required for the Drivers’ World Ranking to be compatible with the current Championship points listing."
Does that mean there will be silly points for each day rather than at the end of the rallye where the positions entitle points?
As long as the arab world is sponsoring it.... it will be around for a long time to come :pQuote:

1. It gives advantage to the faster crews on the first day and bit slower crews advantage during the next days. So, more or less it avoids the possibility that top 8 is in half hour at the end of the rally .-)
2. If they plan to award Bonus points, then there is no point to loose time at the end of day.
At least Super2000 cup calendar has been confirmed. I assume that rules will be simple. You have S2000 car, you can take part in 10 rounds, but 7 of them counts. There is interesting addition -"for teams" As far as I have heard they plan that there will be only one car teams.
Why is it silly? Because a rally is about getting from the start to the finish in the fastest time. If you don't finish you are nowhere. If you push too hard at the beginning and cannot complete the course you have not completed the contest and therefore should not get points.
