Championship standingsPoints systemDrivers classificationFor drivers classification, points are awarded based on race duration, position in class, and number of starters in class. At the end of the season, best 7 races will count for the championship and the rest will be dropped; however, disqualifications or race bans cannot be dropped. In case of a driver entering for multiple cars in a race, they should nominate which car should they score points from; otherwise they automatically score from the car with the lowest start number.
