Obviously, when the top drivers comment on the new points scoring system FIA has is WRONG!

[@kevinhowley1586]

Thanks to David and the dirtfish team for the coverage all weekend. Top quality as always. Tanak said it right I think. He is coming away with great points for finishing 4th which kind of cheapens the value of finishing at the very sharp end. Needs to be reviewed for certain.

[@DirtFish]

Wow indeed… thanks for tuning in as always guys! 🇭🇷 Watch out for our post-event videos, and let us know what you think on the current points system 🤔

[@mrtravnikar]

Bring back the old system

[@ElwynR]

Tell me the driver who finished third got the same points as the driver who finished second and scored one point in the power stage!

[@0626love]

I like the new system. Game is a game - everyone has the same rules, there is no negative parts. Yes it is different than original rallying was but the Sunday was so much fun!!!! If the winner wants more points, just continue pushing and winning on SUnday - no one forbids that (no excuses for someone else taking the points)!

[@HJK242]

I agree with Ogier, Evans and Tanak

[@markos8400]

Even Tanak, who probably gained the most out of the new system, is critical. Says enough.

[@bpford]

Abolish the new points system as soon as possible

[@cacpowpow]

Fourmaux's power stage run was phenomenal, a true full send.

[@tenmamut]

People watch sport because they want genuine emotions, trying to make it more exiting through such contrived methods such as this scoring system will never make people happy. This sport is about going fast without crashing.

[@bernardoberner4]

Really good to see the drivers criticising the points system. The FIA wanted to test it, they did, now get rid of it

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

Can't change the points allocation mid season

[@bernardoberner4]

@@Matthew-ll9ke never said to change the allocation

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

@@bernardoberner4 you said get rid of it, what else could you possibly mean?

[@bernardoberner4]

@@Matthew-ll9ke does your brain work alright? Doesnt seem like it. Just GET RID OF IT, what do you mean, what do I mean. Keep the current points, and change the points system from Portugal onwards. You wouldnt need to change the points that have already been scored to fit this new system. They were scored in another system, why would you need to mess with whats already been scored just because you changed the points system? You seem to think really strongly theyd need to do that, so whys that? Cus to me, you dont need to do that at all, keep what everyone already has and change the system back to normal

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

@@bernardoberner4 you seem like a lovely chap. Regardless, you cannot change the way points are allocated mid way through a season.

[@alfaromeo1969]

Dirtfish you have gone up a notch in the presentation and camera work on the channel....top shelf

[@waynewilliams839]

Thanks for the fantastic entertainment DirtFish !!! 😊

[@mhh7544]

Driver also has responsebility to react if he hears that notes arent keeping up. Adrien said, we couldnt go any faster coz the co-pilot was reading as fast as he could. Same said many commentator drivers, Martin was belting out notes as fast as he could but Thierry was going faster. Many felt its kinda low to blame co-pilot alone, its a team work.

[@bobbythompson3544]

Seb Ogier is a genius! Would love to have seen him driving Irish stages! This points system is a sick joke!

[@Catty1985]

Dirtfish.. you’re the best !

[@HeyItsAJOmega]

I genuinely thought it wasn't possible to come up with a worse championship format in motorsport than the NASCAR Playoffs, but this points system just about manages it. It's stupid, confusing, illogical, and undermines the entire concept of rally racing. In trying to prevent drivers cruising around on Sunday, all its done has created a situation where guys cruise through Friday and Saturday instead, if they believe they can't win overall, and somehow pick up as many points or more as the overall rally winners. Its nonsense. And *all* the top.drivers are unanimously saying the same thing - there's no debate. It's garbage. And at a time where the WRC is facing serious issues like a dwindling car count in Rally1, spiralling costs and a lack of manufacturer interest, the last thing they needed was to alienate their own fans, drivers and teams with this utter farce.

[@siviunative5241]

Whoever's come up with this should be sacked immediately.

[@mosca3289]

Ogier can still win! That’s incredible.

[@PierreSimonsson]

Point system is carzy bad i takes the fun away we cant cope who is getting point fore what totaly Crazy

[@yogawombat9199]

The thing is the new point system has made Sundays worth watching finally, because last years it's been pointless untill the power stage since everyone is just cruising within the speed limit to save tires. But actually winning should be valued more. If they wanna keep the supersunday system they have to at least score the points like they use to, 1st 25pts, 2nd 18pts etc so the win would be valued more and you can't make up finishing 4th or 5th to the same points or more as the winner with a good sunday. And points shouldn't lock after saturday. Would make it more interesting.

[@tomhalstead1732]

The new points system is awful lol

[@donbrashsux]

BS

[@The-walloper]

Why add an lol? That's virgin behaviour.

[@Werferharfer]

They need to drop this point system

[@tomhalstead1732]

Shit points system

[@user-dr9qw1mm5m]

Great event. Glad to see it live on the stages. Great battle over the weekend. One thing that was wrong is - the point system - It just dont make any sence

[@tekuusi]

"When everyone's a winner, no one is"

[@troyneal8772]

In a strange way, I feel fortunate to be a brand new fan of rally right as this new points system drops in... it's all still SO new for me that I'd much rather FEEL the events than than think about them. So the discourse can go on without me for awhile and hopefully they'll have it sorted or gone by the time I need to care about that sort of thing, which given that even drivers are this vocal about their issues with it, should come sooner rather than later.

[@iamgeoffandthisismystory]

Great weekend in spite of the ridiculous points system. Well done to all!

[@anthonypaterson7066]

IMO very good coverage and without upsetting Colin, David is much easier to understand. Well presented Dirtfish.

[@WW2_X2]

Nice

[@gregoryoruko]

When I grow up I want to drive like Sebastian Ogier

[@dannycasson2487]

points system is killing the sport its a total joke

[@mrmagpiepromotions]

Not a fan of the points system. I understand why they did it, because Sundays were a bit boring prior to the power stage... but overall position should hold more weight in the championship points, super Sunday should be for bonus points. It would have the same effect of people pushing on Sunday.

[@iedurl6914]

Seb's woodpecking seen like.... 1hour before sleep heavy D1GP videos... 3am woke and doing NFSUnderground2... Sunday spec.stage..gotta get that rear, sideskirt and front lip spoilers from the shop😊😊😊😊 #17 #18 #33 #69

[@tangerinedream7211]

Crazy points system,so unfair, hope it's ditched year end. Apparently they are looking at giving F1 points out next year down to 12th position.

[@donbrashsux]

The Champ is showing why he’s the greatest

[@max27stoner]

Also the reasons why Neuville and Evans aren’t champions (yet at least) are that Neuville crashes too often and Evans keeps usually finishing second or worse.

[@user-ez3kl5ih8j]

タカ!!最終日は、速いんだけどね～🤔

[@dylanbaker738]

Can’t believe Thierry again

[@siviunative5241]

The points system is screwed, awarding the undeserved loser.

[@Hellspawn482]

Stupid Fia! They always have fuck around with everything. Points , cars changing they stupid rules every year events.

[@johnd0e25]

FIA continuing to kill WRC one rally at a time...

[@saschareader6696]

@FIA no need for constant review.......the sport doesn't need this.

[@Catty1985]

I’ll see you all here next month…in the best rally of the year 😊 🇵🇹

[@borraaank122213d]

I mean.. if you've been fast on friday and pull back on saturday and sunday, the point system will punish you. As simple as that, rules are the rules, if you complaim and dont know how they work, it will cost you. Sometimes i feel some drivers are willingly abiding with the prior rules and not with the ones at hand.

[@olliebrown89]

Pretty mad that kale and ogier can just pick and choose what rallys they do, turn up and win.
