Can we talk about the rule that gives more importance to the championship points than the user rating to calculate the splits?
That thing never had any sense to me, I think that the drivers must always race against people with its same skill, but this is specially annoying the first week of a daily series, here is an example: last MX5 race, the top 5 drivers in the second split were 2 seconds faster in qualy than the rest of the grid. These guys were faster in race than the top5 of the first split. In the first split there were some people 2-3-4 seconds off the pace per lap. Wouldn't be these guys happier in the second split racing against people of its same level? Wouldn't be happier the top 5 of the second split, and the top5 of the first split if they could race together?
I guess that this rule was added to avoid an specific scenario were in the middle of a championship a high ranked driver that is not disputing the championship could send a low ranked driver that is fighting for the championship to the second split, but without making that rule more specific you're penalising the the system in most of the cases just to make it more fair for an scenario that will be an exception.
I know that the rule won't be changed, but can it be at least removed from the first weeks of the championships? (or completely removed for the daily series where championships are not that relevant)
Hope to see some opinions about this, specially from the people that would be usually in the lower splits.
Cheers.
