WRR - World Rally Ranking
"Who is the best tennis player in the world today? Rafael Nadal. So says the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) ranking. And the best National football team? Spain. The best football club? Inter. So says the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) ranking. The best golfer according to the PGA (Professional Golfer's Association) ranking is Tiger Woods, while Alberto Contador is the best cyclist in the world according to the UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale) ranking.
Until today there was no worldwide ranking for Rallies, the IRDA (International Rally Drivers Association) has promoted the World Rally Ranking which is calculated through a points system, based on the importance, the sporting difficulty and the results obtained by drivers and codrivers from around the world participating in the rallies included in the FIA International Sporting Calendar.
The ranking is an objective and "impartial" standing, where rallymen driver of all nations see their value, the value of their victories and their results recognized as a whole, something that the current classification systems obviously do not allow, being based on standings for individual championships without a unique world classification.
Besides the overall ranking for drivers there is also one for codrivers, and other partial rankings (by nation, by car, by manufacturer, by category, by surface).
The World Rally Ranking, just like other sports' rankings, is based on a computing system which assigns a base score, depending on the overall position obtained, then corrected through a system of coefficients to reflect the relevance, the importance, the difficulty and length of each rally, and therefore the importance of the result: the first factor is the validity of the rally, e.g. a World Rally Championship event has coeff. 15, a Middle East Rally Championship event has coeff. 8.
All with maximum transparency: all the criteria can easily be verified in the IRDA Regulations on the http://www.worldrallyranking.com website.
Alongside the Rankings visible to all (the first 40 positions for each type of ranking) on the http://www.worldrallyranking.com website it is possible to access the complete rankings and to have the possibility to create customized rankings by registering with the form provided, by simply entering your name and your email address.
In short, a revolution for all the protagonists of the rally world, drivers, teams, journalists and fans.
All the results from January 1st 2010 to date of all the drivers and codrivers of all nations in all the worldwide events in the FIA International Sporting Calendar have been included in the IRDA database.
So who are the best rally drivers in activity in the world today?
