Driver Points:
The driver is awarded points based on his race finishing positions. The top five finishers have a five-point separation (i.e., 175, 170, 165, 160, 155). Points earned by finishers 6 through 10 have a four-point separation. Three points separate the points awarded for finishing position 11th through the end of the field, regardless of the number of starters. Points are awarded to the starting drivers regardless of who is driving at the finish. The starting driver must take the green flag and complete one lap before turning the car over to a relief driver. Five bonus points are awarded to any driver leading a lap, and an additional five points are given to the driver leading the most laps. In the event that two or more drivers finish the season with the same number of points, the number of wins during the season is used as a tie-breaker to determine the championship.

Owner Points:
Owner points are distributed in the same manner as driver points, except that the owner receives points based on the performance of the car regardless of who drives it. Owner points are used to determine the starting lineups when qualifying is canceled or when identical preference for provisional starting positions.

Manufacturer Points:
Points for the Manufacturer’s Championship are determined on a 9-6-4-3-2-1 scale. Only the first car across the line for each manufacturer receives points.
