so what is going to be the new points system?

So if I win the most races but also crash out the most and I'm sitting in 24th I should be crowned the champ?

There would have to be a rule that states that you need to be a full-timer to qualify for the championship.

If you're the winningest driver in Cup, I can't see the driver being that low in the standings.

Yes I'm exaggerating a bit, but the last few years the most wins is 10 by Larson in 2021 but he also had 20 top 5's, now what if the bizarre were to happen and he had 20 dnf's? Yes I'm exaggerating again but you get the point, it could be entirely possible for the driver with the most wins to also have the most dnf's and is nowhere near the top, consistency has to matter as well, not an easy situation but there has to be a way.

An entirely possible scenario with the existence of Shane Van Gisbergen.

I do think that in the suggested scenario, drivers would be extra motivated to beat SVG at road courses. Regulars have been getting better and better at RCs these past few years.

I wouldn't have a problem with SVG winning a title under those circumstances. RCs are here to stay, and I like it.

They have extra motivation to beat him on road courses now which is the 10 playoff points.
 
They should have sufficient motivation to beat him because they are professional racing drivers participating in professional motor races. If they lack the motivation to try to succeed in a race against him, they should retire immediately.

It seems clear to me that NASCAR is not going to go back to full series points and frankly it does seem that they are even going to keep stage points or stage cautions. Their way around not giving me the thing I want and going back to a failed iteration of the playoff system from their perspective is to say they're going to do some sort of apology tour where they apologize for everything but the issues I had with it. You know: points system that crowns a full season champion and avoids the issues and additional complexity that comes with any playoff iteration; lack of transparency from the sanctioning body; lack of support to the grassroots and non-national classes such that I would generously call NASCAR's operation of the present day ARCA/Mods "revenue extractive". What is NASCAR sorry for? Me finding out they think I'm illiterate? Providing financial support to the likes of Bubba Wallace and Kyle Larson? Jokes on them: I think they're incompetent enough to get crushed in court by a three headed monster of problem gambler, gigolo, and Yum Brands 2017 Franchisee Of The Year and I have no expectation anything will ever really change in that regard.

You may be over-personalizing this.
 
I heard regardless of format Denny gets a bye in the final round as part of the settlement. :bounce::moon:

Apologies but the only thing I got out of this is I’m trying to figure out which one the Gigolo is ?
