[WRC] News & Rumours 2018

Actually not. Current rules are fair as well - simply because they are given and fixed well ahead so everyone knows how they work. They make it tougher for the leading crew for sure but for every leading crew. It doesn't matter which one it is at the given moment. They have to cope with the same conditions - and that is fair.

Fair to who? For the 15% of the current wrc drivers who can actually lead the championship for the first 2-3 rallies, or fair to the rest of them 85% so they can have a chance to win a rally or 2? Just the drivers know how the rules are ahead doesn't make them fair. Or You suggest who doesn't like to rules just to quit? May be its bit extreme, but what lies under the "fair" concept? Everybody are under the same rules, yes sure, but that doesn't make them fair for the ones who are actually are already on top of the board. It is uneven handicap for them.

Current WRC cars rules already are enough equalizing all drivers, why we need to stick with these ancient running order rules? The sport needs refreshing, the 1st part - cars is already done, the other must come accordingly.
