So let's say you're 5th after saturday but it's tight. You menage to climb to first on sunday, so you win the rally but you're 6th on the power stage. And there is a guy who was first after saturday, won the powerstage and comes second in the rally and gets way more points than the winer. Cool
Without additional points for wining the RALLY it's a load of bullshit

OK... read the FIA regulations.
So basically every rally becomes two rallys. You get points for your position after saturday, and sunday has it's own classification (only the stage times from sunday add up). Power stage will be run with no changes, and as I see it no additional points for the RALLY winer.

No, it will die before the end of the decade, the championship anyhow;
If anything I’d change the point scoring system back to what it was in 2003-2009, 10-8-6-5-4-etc.

Well we have such a small group of cars finishing might as well reward them for the top 8.
