All races should be point scoring; no dropping. Simple. Too late this year but has to be something for next year....

Simple fact is that every past champion would have been, regardless of dropping points. Phil is leading this years championship regardless of if we drop results... I can't see it makes a difference either way.

It works to keep more people in the races, but I don't like it for the championship... IF I won 2 of the races but not the third, I would possibly only make up 5 points instead of 10. A big IF I know.... But it allows more points to be scored and could reduce any gains to be made. I am more a fan of all 3 being championship races, or keeping it at 2.

I suppose it would let me crash in one of the races though!

However, I think this is as much a rule change as anything else we have said we can't change mid-season. Sure, you only score in 2 races, but it fundamentally changes how the points get distributed.
