There is indeed an official ranking in Formula 1 that allocates points according to the importance of the positions obtained, with a decreasing scale of two points for the first three places. 10 points for the winner, 8 for the second place, and 6 for the third.
This scale only rewards drivers who finish in the top eight, and drivers who regularly finish 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 rectify the situation, casinoenlignefrance.eu.com invents the consistency ranking: Each driver receives a point according to their reverse order of arrival, provided they have crossed the checkered flag. In case of abandonment, they receive no points. The first receives 22 points, the second 21, the third 20, etc. The 22nd, if there is one, will thus inherit just one point.
In the end, we get a ranking based on the finishing position in each race, showing the consistency of each driver and allowing them to be rewarded for the work they provide within the team, not just for their position.

In the standings, Button is still in the lead, followed by Webber (203 to 182 points). Barrichello, Rosberg, and Glock also maintain their 3rd, 4th, and 5th places. Hamilton makes an impressive leap from 9th to 6th place. He now has 132 points but is far behind the leaders as Glock has 157. Alonso loses a place, with a one-point gap from his former McLaren teammate. Vettel, in 8th, also loses a place due to Hamilton’s rise. Trulli in 9th and Heidfeld in 10th move ahead of Massa (-3 places), who doesn’t score any points.
Räikkönen and Fisichella remain 12th and 13th with 109 and 86 points. Bourdais will no longer score points, which is why some drivers like Piquet and Kubica gain a place. The Frenchman is still 17th in our Motors Inside ranking, just behind Kovalainen, who is waking up as he moves from 19th to 16th place. Nakajima overtakes Buemi for 18th position. Sutil is 20th.
