In one paragraph rallies shall finish on sunday lunch time, in the next one they shouldn't. "Don't make the aero inefficient,...put holes in it..."

Granted, those might be chatter/typos, but quality journalism it is not.

So in the final, nobody will understand the points. And who will be winner of the rally? That is the most imporant info for most of the people...

So no (real) changes to the format, rallies are still the same length (saw they haven’t changed the rule from 2019) and only making the scoring system complicated, I hope the FIA & promoter are pleased with themselves, I do hope at least Sundays will be a bit more interesting.

I think Mirek’s quote describes this perfectly: stupid is as stupid does…

If I understand correct, in theory now the biggest points outcome from one rally for the crew is 55 points?

No it’s 30, they’ve just split the 25 points into two and the power stage points you get is still the same. Unless by crew you mean the team in which case yes.
