How do you enforce everybody to take part on the Sunday if they can't be bothered...

I think there is good reason it hasn't been done like this. Possible in the future but too quick a change now to be fair.



Fair point, on screen graphics will have to be clear, and commentary will have to be mentally switched on. So I wouldn't be too surprised if they didn't focus on Sunday scores much. It could just be 5-10 seconds per graphic at the end of each stage. 'Here are the stage results', 'Here are the leg standings', 'Here are the rally standings'.

Else, by the time they get to cameras in WRC2 cars it will be an absolute fkinc mess.

It's easier than trying to understand that a Rally2 car is winning the class but is not nominated for WRC2 but is 8th overall so will score WRC points.
How would giving extra points for Sunday be a different event? It's the current solution without the nonsense Saturday points.

Fair enough about the organisers needing heads-up to have a separate Sunday sprint but the FIA had plenty of time to do something, Sunday cruising is there for years and years...
