There was a proposed draft of penalty system that I tried to push before the start of the season, it was dubbed too harsh however.
Short description: you'd get a 10 (or 15, tweakable) min added to your
class winner's time for each stage retired. I suggested a loop-based retiring system (so that you get DNF times from the stage you retired on till the service) as well, to make it harsher than now, but not as harsh as "one DNF kills all" scenario, but that's not the point of discussion here
.
If there's more support for that system now (as we see more fresher drivers talking about it now, the one's that many of veterans were concerned about) maybe we could see something like that introduced in future seasons. Speak your mind.
