So between the top 3 since 2022: Evans won on tarmac twice, both times last year in Croatia & Japan; Ott only has won win in Ypres back in 2022 & Thierry has won 3 times, in Japan ‘22, CER last year and Monte-Carlo his latest win so effectively has the upper hand in those last two events…assuming he doesn’t lose more than say 25 points in the next 3 events, it’s his to lose. Mind you, Evans has yet to win this year while both Ott & Thierry have one win a piece….2024 will go down to the wire imho, especially with this complicated scoring system, I honestly hope they sort it out for next year so that at the base of it the one who finishes first still gets the most points.
