Scoring system

Points are awarded to the top 20 classified finishers in races one and two, with the third race awarding points to only the top 15. Race three, which has its grid formed by reversing the top twelve from the qualifying order, awards extra points, up until a maximum of twelve, for positions gained from the drivers' respective starting positions.[36]
