2010 FIA Formula One World Championship

POINTS SYSTEM

In order to further encourage the ‘race to win’, an adjustment to the points system was agreed. Points for both titles will be awarded at each event according to the following scale:

          1st : 25 points
          2nd : 18 points
          3rd : 15 points
          4th : 12 points
          5th : 10 points
          6th :  8 points
          7th :  6 points
          8th :  4 points
          9th :  2 points
         10th :  1 point

QUANTITY AND USE OF TIRES The number of dry weather tires sets allocated per driver has been reduced from 14 to 11.

In addition, to encourage teams to run during the Friday practice sessions, one set has to be returned before the start of the second practice session, and two sets before the start of the third practice session.

IMPROVING THE SHOW

In order to introduce a further element of strategy, cars having participated in Qualifying 3 (Q3) must start the race on the same set of tires with which their grid time was set.
