Wow, talk about tight at the top of the table, those four retirements could have really cost me
We've used boost twice this year, and both times we've failed to score any points.
What's the actual point of the system?

The actual point is to give team managers and drivers something extra to actually participate in the series. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. That it didn't work out two times for you doesn't mean it didn't for others. In Montreal this season, I was by far the fastest driver with a double boost until the car broke down.
Adjusting the values is something we can look into during pre-season testing, to maybe increase chances and risks alike with boosts. However, we've already discussed this a few seasons back and there was a huge consensus that the odds need to stay rather than a boost basically ordering the field from highest to lowest value. And I'm totally with this.

Oh how different thing would be if I had snatched that win at the Hockenheimring. Fate is cruel.
On the boosts note, I'll suggest again adapting to a similar system to the GPGNC. Boost makes a huge difference there. My team is kind of a backmarker since I just joined, but at round 3 I submitted a 500/500 boost and finished 4th.
Stats: 139 Starts / 7 Wins / 9 Poles / 5 Fastest laps

I'm on top 10 in Test Drivers standings. Wow, looks quite interesting. Next one is the last and hopefully I can give everything myself to finish this season on a high.

I am completely with you on this. I have also been in the camp of thought for along time now that the boost system needs to be changed and I am fully with the idea that the GPGNC version works really well and actually gives you, as a team boss, an added layer on intrigue in the racing. The strategy for me, was trying to out-guess the other managers and deploy a boost to the best effect.
On a side-note though, the Christel VXR alumni are doing mighty well in the championship. *Secretly sticks a tenner on Elleker to win it*

But you can still fail with that boost system, like me. No boost system is perfect I guess.

It would be nice however that when you do boost, you can go over every other team without using all of it at once. Backmarker teams can use +8 BHP in the middle of the season and still 'only' compare to the number 1, 2 and 3 teams.
Maybe we could try and make the boosts more powerfull like Ruben was saying as well. Maybe do a few test runs in the off season with it?
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!
