    Then it wouldn’t make any sense to just wait and save tyres for the last Power Stage.
    maybe not enough tv drama for the last stage. i'd go more with point reward for any ss and keep the ps point

    How about the power stage as the last stage on Saturday? with 3,2,1 points. On the Sunday have a joker points stage among the last stages. The stage that counted announced at the podium 3,2,1 points. The drivers would have to drive the Sunday consistently and not save the tyres/ effort for one power stage.

    Because its all about the promoter wanting the last stage power stage drama - for live TV. Every Sunday lunchtime.

    Its why we have these identikit mickey mouse Sundays nowadays. Anyone who watches the power stage live would watch it whether it was 11am or 5pm, so I wish we could go back to full days on Sunday.

    But that won't happen, and I doubt the promoter/ FIA will even want to hand out a point for every stage win on Sunday either.

    The best we can hope for imo is new tyres being allocated before the power stage, but even then they'll moan about costs...

    The juvenile in me did have a chuckle when the helicopter just flew over a massive penis drawn in the snow on the power stage!

    Reinforces old stereotypical view that Finns have of Swedes. All they think about is phallus. No offence meant.

    Zero points for Breen is a painful blow after the Monte podium.
