its a load of bollocks!!!!
a championship is about consistency! why reward hit and miss driving if someone is consistently coming first, second or third in each race??? it will just mean more kamikaze driving with more crashes, i.e. more cost to teams to replace cars that are battered...
IMO
make 1st = 12 point 2nd = 8 points then the rest as they are
more incentive to get 1st, but you can still win if you are consitently 2nd, if the guy who normal comes first is hit and miss...
