Scoring system A team has to enter two cars to score points in an event. Drivers and teams must nominate a scoring rally when they enter the event. Originally, the best six scores from seven nominated rallies counted towards the final classification, but in response to the removal of Rally Saudi Arabia from the calendar, the FIA reduced the eligible score requirement to the best five of seven rounds. Registered drivers are able to enter additional rallies with Priority 2 status without scoring points.
