Ogier: New WRC points system makes “no sense”
The WRC has introduced a new points structure this year to make rallies more exciting, particularly on Sundays. Drivers can still earn a maximum of 30 points, but they will be distributed differently. Points will be awarded to the top 10 at the end of Saturday, but only to those who finish the rally on Sunday. Additional points will be given for a separate classification based on Sunday stages. Sébastien Ogier, the eight-time world champion, is not happy with the new rules and believes they don’t make sense. He thinks the new system devalues the overall victory and creates confusion for the wider public.
