[edit] Season Results

Points were awarded to the top 10 finishers in the order of 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1, with the following exceptions:

• Drivers failing to drive the car within a certain percentage of the laps in a race were not given points.
• Manufacturers were only given points for their highest finishing car; any other cars from that manufacturer were merely skipped in the points standings. Points were still awarded to their drivers however.
• Neither driver nor manufacturer scored points if they did not complete 90% of the winner's distance.

[edit] Manufacturers Championships

[edit] Overall Manufacturers Championship

All cars were awarded points for the overall championship, but C2 and B class cars were scored separately for their own championship.

Chassis builder and engine builder were considered as a single constructor, thus multiple chassis or engines can be listed.

No points were awarded for Rounds 5, 8, and 11. Only the best 6 points finishes counted towards the championship, with any other points being skipped. Skipped points are marked in italics.
