The Fan-F1 standings after the German GP

There is indeed an official ranking in Formula 1 that allocates points based on the importance of the positions achieved, meaning with a decreasing scale of two by two for the top three places. 10 points for the winner, 8 for the second, and 6 for the third.

This scale only rewards drivers who finish in the top eight, drivers who regularly finish in the top 10 (9th and 10th, for example) are never acknowledged even though this position is almost as important as an eighth position, which usually awards a point.

To set things straight, casinoenlignefrance.eu.com invents the consistency ranking: Each driver receives points according to their reverse finishing order, 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 only one point.

In the end, we obtain a ranking based on the finishing position of each race, showing the consistency of each participant and allowing the driver to be rewarded for their work within the team, not just based on their position.
