    What's funny with this new rule is that that superallydriver is going to score a stage win for the stage that follows the stage in which s/he retired.

    I guess it is better to give some extra points per leg, and re starters could only compete for that separate per leg classification, (with those extra points.)
    Not in general classification.
    Points for final classification should be higher (why not back to 20-15-12-10, etc)

    They very well could have written that the superally penalty is 10 minutes if you retire on/after the last stage of the leg but c'mon, where's the fun in that one! mokin:

    i would venture in thinking that it's designed to account for those super specials where they race for 1min/1,5min.

    As a spectator theres nothing worse then watching 3 WRC cars then all the group N dribble. Super rally is good for spectators, although I agree they should not be able to score points.
