championship points

How are the championship points awarded?

Championship points are won in races and sprint races. Qualifying and sprint qualifying sessions do not earn the drivers points.

The winner in a race gets 25 points, second place earns 18 points, third gets 15, fourth gets 12, fifth gets 10, sixth gets 8, seventh gets 6, eighth gets 4, ninth gets 2 and tenth gets 1. Anyone who finishes outside the top 10 in a full race does not get any points. Additionally, if someone in the top 10 earns fastest lap, they get an extra championship point. 

The winner in a sprint race gets 8 points, second place gets 7, third gets 6, fourth gets 5, fifth gets 4, sixth gets 3, seventh gets 2 and eighth gets 1. Anyone who finishes outside the top 8 in a sprint race does not get any points.
