Exactly, i tried to explain the new points system to my girlfriend who occasionly watches rally with me, and i seriously couldnt explain it in few sentences, and that is the main problem with the new system. Otherwise i like it and if you are inside the WRC all the time it is fairly simple, but it doesnt help with the new fans.

But based on monte it did bring me to wake up at 8am on a sunday to watch rally, last year i rarely forced myself to wake up for the first stage since everybody was cruising. atleast on power stage rehearsal you could see somewhat faster driving. But now the whole sunday was interesting.
