What does Evans need to mathematically seal it in Sardegna? Win the rally + how many points in PS?

Is it sealed in stone that this year's championship will only have two more rounds?! Lately there have been some discussions of the Monza addition.

In short season like this, mechanicals sway the results too much, not much of a season to make up the points lost.

Motorsport is always a combination of human and machine. Both must perform.

If Evans gets maximum 30 points in Sardinia, then only Ogier has a chance. Others would not have even theoretical chance, even if Evans would get nothing in Belgium. And when Evans gets maximum points, Ogier would need to get at least 18 points to remain in theoretical title fight.

In a simple way. If Ogier, Tänak, Rovanperä or Neuville would get maximum points from the next two rallies:

Ogier gets 60 points, Evans needs to collect 43 points to win by 1 point.
Tänak or Rovanperä gets 60 points, Evans needs to collect 34 points to win by 1 point.
Neuville gets 60 points, Evans needs to collect 29 points to win by 1 point.

Was thinking the same.

Not that I wish something bad for Evans, it would be just epic in Ypres then.

But I believe only mechanical gremlins would ruin his championship.

Neuville (and Breen) at Ypres must give Hyundai some advantage for the Manu title given their experience there.

Given the amount of sheer bad luck Evans has had in the past he surely doesnt deserve any now.

We see a trend developing....If you drive for Toyota Gazoo Racing, you have a shot to become Champion. The car is fabulous. The team is on kill. Hungary has been horrid on this team. Fowler goes to work, and just like that, winners. Okay, I get that luck had everything to do with it, but we all knew that Hungary would be like this. I thoroughly enjoyed this rally. Hated it for Ogier, but he isn't done. We all understand that.
