Teams Championships
For races under three hours, points are awarded to the top 10 finishers in the following order:
- 20-16-13-10-8-6-4-3-2-1
For races between four hours and eight hours, points are awarded in the following order:
- 25-21-18-15-13-11-9-8-7-6
For races longer than eight hours, points are awarded in the following order:
- 30-26-23-20-18-16-14-13-12-11
Cars failing to complete 70% of the winner's distance are not awarded points. Unlike the Le Mans Series where teams with multiple entries have each entry number scored separately to the championship, teams with multiple entries only score the points of their highest finishing entry in each race.

Famous quotes containing the word teams:
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
