Scoring system

Points are awarded to the top ten classified drivers, and the top eight of the sprint.[26][c] In the case of a tie on points, a countback system is used where the driver with the most Grand Prix wins is ranked higher. If the number of wins is identical, then the number of second places is considered, and so on.[26] Points are awarded using the following system:

Position  1st   2nd   3rd   4th   5th   6th   7th   8th   9th   10th 
Race 25 18 15 12 10 8 6 4 2 1
Sprint[a] 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 The Chinese, Miami, Belgian, United States, São Paulo and Qatar Grands Prix feature the sprint format.[21]
  2. Lewis Hamilton originally set the fastest lap, but was later disqualified as the thickness of the plank assembly was below the minimum thickness required.[23] Lando Norris, initially having the second-fastest lap, was recognised for setting the fastest lap of the race.[24]
  3. In the event of a race or sprint ending prematurely, the number of points paying positions can be reduced, depending on how much of the race or sprint had been completed.[27]
