There shouldn't be Saturday points. Those 18-15-13 etc. should be awarded for overall at the end of the rally.
Yes those should be awarded either for overall win, or for saturday win without the requirement of finishing the rally.Quote:

It wouldnt be difficult to explain. Those retired on friday and saturday can already win a sizable amount of points. This would be more consistent. I the end you take a guy with most points and declare him the winner.Quote:

Fastest guy. on stages all weekend should always be the winner. Nothing elseQuote:

Are his Sunday WCC points important to Hyundai, since Tanak/Neuville both restarted and he goes back to being their third driver?
