Results and standings

Scoring system

[edit]

Points will be awarded to the top ten classified finishers in both races.[a] The pole-sitter in the feature race will also receive two points, and one point will be given to the driver who set the fastest lap in both the feature and sprint races, provided that driver finished inside the top ten. If the driver who set the fastest lap is classified outside the top ten, the point will be given to the driver who set the fastest lap of those inside the top ten. No extra points will be awarded to the pole-sitter in the sprint race as the grid for it will be set by reversing the top twelve qualifiers.

Sprint race points

Points will be awarded to the top ten classified finishers. A bonus point will be awarded to the driver who set the fastest lap and finished in the top ten.[5]
