Individual Drivers
Points were allocated per race as follows: 20 points awarded to the winner, 15 for the runner-up, 12 for third place, 10 for fourth, 8 for fifth, 6 for sixth, 4 for seventh, decreasing incrementally to 1 point for tenth position. Competitors finishing beyond tenth place did not earn points. An extra 2 points were granted for recording the fastest lap in a race. Only the top 14 results from each driver contributed to the overall championship tally, with all bonus points factored in. Three drivers had points subtracted, which are indicated in parentheses.
