Full Series Standings

Points are allocated in both races according to the following scale: 15 for first place, then 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, and 2 points for ninth position. Additionally, one bonus point is granted to the driver who secures pole position in the initial race at each circuit (this bonus applies solely to drivers). Only those drivers who complete the races are eligible to receive points. Team rankings are determined by summing the results of the top two drivers from each team in every race.
