That's hardly the answer as I pointed out.
I don't think I will ever do well in the sort of hotlap competition the points suggest.
However I'm good at altering my lines, braking points etc to match the wind, tyre condition, traffic etc etc and therefore usually climb up from my starting position and would like to be rewarded from my finishing position rather than the best lap I could throw in at some random point of the race.
Some people, even though they're much faster than me with their pb's are just making too many mistakes during a race to compete against the consistant driver.
I very rarely spin or crash (and get yellow flags on my license) but I'm not slowest guy either.
In it's current form the points system is just not rewarding enough for me to be really interested in participating on the single seaters.
The finishing order should have the highest weight when counting the points.

Keep the wind as it is.
It is the driver's job to alter their braking points etc to deal with it.
I don't think they'd ever got to race in real life either if they'd only do it in perfect weather conditions.
Suck it up and do your job.

I think the current points system is pointing too much towards the fastest lap and not on finishing position or consistency. I just did a race on SS1 (being very low on the license tables still). I won, but got less points than the man who came second because his best lap was about 0.8 faster than mine (me 7pts, him 8).
I'm not the kind of person to ever do well in a hotlap competition, but put me racing for 10 laps and my consistency starts paying off.
I mean I can be 2 or more secs off pace on a track and still manage to claw myself a 3-5th position even starting from the back of the grid. And then I only get a couple of points.

I like to think it's a simulation rather than a game, but that's not what everybody thinks obviously..
I think it's quite the opposite the further up you go on the servers/licenses.
Try concentrating more on the racing and less on the messaging.. it'll take you further. You can always talk about the race after it without repeating yourself.

Try adjusting your gamma settings in the gfx card options
Why would you want to repeat a message 3 times anyway?
I believe you have to finish the race to gain a point..
Nevermind... I didn't read the whole thing thinking you'd be resetting the licenses as well. If it's down to 1 vote difference, you can move mine from keep to reset.

Following that logic every set of teamskins is just rubbish?

Edit: Just noticed how stupid the 2 closest trees look like.. I'll replace those.
