I cannot see the logic of 2 drop rounds, I think all score should count, the driver with the most points at the end of the season should be the champion.

Its bad enough with 1 drop round, but to have 2 dropped it will distort the final positions too much.

Look at it this way, a driver that has 7 good rounds, no engine or mechanical failures ( not by luck, but by good preperation), keeps himself out of trouble in the races and drives very well at all the rounds, and ends and with the maximum points over 7 rounds...this driver is unlikely to be champion...his drop scores will be too high, he will be penalised for driving a better championship....it has happened often with 1 drop score, it will happen more often with 2 drop scores.
