Points System
Championship points were awarded on a 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1 basis to the top ten classified finishers in the Championship Class in each race. An additional point was awarded to the driver gaining the Championship Class pole position for each race and a further additional point was awarded to the driver setting the fastest lap in the Championship class in each race. To secure the “fastest lap” point the driver must have been declared finisher for that race.
The same point-score system was also used for both the National Class and the Trophy Class.
