Fan-F1 ranking after the Singapore GP

There is indeed an official ranking in Formula 1 that allocates points according to the importance of the positions achieved, with a decreasing scale of two by two for the first three positions. 10 points for the winner, 8 for second place, and 6 for third place.
This scale only rewards the drivers who finish in the top eight, while those regularly in the top 10 (9th and 10th, for example) are never acknowledged, even though these positions are almost as important as an eighth position, which usually awards a point.
To correct the situation, casinoenlignefrance.eu.com invents the regularity ranking: Each driver receives a point according to their reverse order of arrival, provided they have crossed the checkered flag. In case of retirement, they receive no points. The first receives 22 points, the second 21, the third 20, and so on. The 22nd, if there is one, will therefore inherit just one point.
In the end, we get a ranking based on the finishing position in each race, showing the consistency of each participant and allowing the driver to be rewarded for the work done within the team and not only based on their position.

Button and Barrichello still dominate the discussions even in this ranking. He has a 13-point lead. Next, we find Glock (+1 place) tied with Rosberg, then Webber who drops two places due to his retirement. The three drivers are within 2 points of each other. Further back, Alonso is 6th and Hamilton is also 6th! They both deliver strong performances. They are therefore also tied with 186 points. Closely following are Räikkönen (-2 places) and Vettel (+1 place) with 184 and 179 points, respectively. Heidfeld falls sharply to 10th place with his retirement as well.
Trulli, Fisichella and Kovalainen maintain their 11th, 12th, and 13th positions. Massa continues his fall as Kubica takes 14th place from him. Nakajima remains 16th with 111 points. Sutil, in 17th, still hasn’t surpassed the 100-point mark, and that won’t happen today with his retirement. No changes at the bottom of the standings with Buemi, Piquet, Bourdais, Grosjean, Alguersuari, and Badoer in a tie. Liuzzi enters the table with his 14th place today in Singapore.
