Axis by axis
Execution9 vs 8
DiRT Rally 2.0 leans harder on execution: Millimetre steering corrections at speed define stage time
Reads1 vs 1
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance4 vs 3
DiRT Rally 2.0 leans harder on variance: Hidden surface cuts, gravel buildup and weather are unmappable mid-stage
Optimization6 vs 4
DiRT Rally 2.0 leans harder on optimization: Car setup and service-park tyre choices are fully solvable pre-stage
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
