Points system

Championship points were awarded on a 9–6–4–3–2–1 basis to the first six placegetters at each round. Only the best eight round results could be retained by each driver. For rounds staged over two heats, points were allocated on a 20–16–13–11–10–9–8–7–6–5–4–3–2–1 basis to the first 14 finishers in each heat. These points were aggregated to determine the first six placegetters for the round. In the event of two or more drivers attaining the same total, the relevant round placing was awarded to the driver who place higher in the final heat.
