The Scoring system

Scoring system

At the time of writing FIA points are awarded as follows:

1^st scores 10points

2^nd scores 6 points

3^rd scores 4 points

4^th scores 3 points

5^th scores 2 points

6^th scores 1 point.

You score points for qualifying to race, for improving your position during the race and for finishing. The top 6 get extra points as per the list above.

 You lose points for failing to qualify and for failing to finish.

 If a driver or car does not attempt to qualify, for whatever reason, there is no penalty.

 For each race you score your score for each driver and car is calculated as follows

 Qualifying

Subtract start position from 26. (I.E. pole gets 25 points, 22^nd place gets 4 points.)

Race improvement

Subtract finish position from start position and multiply by 4. (Negative scores included!)

A failure to finish counts as 26^th place.

Race finish

Subtract finish position from 26 and add any FIA points

A failure to finish counts as 26^th place.

Fail to qualify

Lose 10 points

Engines score the FIA points of the highest finishing car using that make of engine. There are no qualifying points improvement points or penalties for engines.

 (E.G. If result is Mercedes 1^st, Mercedes 2^nd, Honda 3^rd, then Mercedes scores 10 points and Honda 4 points. )

All results will be scored as ratified by the FIA. If they change their minds (appeals, disqualifications etc. then I will adjust the points to correspond.

 Tyres used will not count for points this season
