Championship standings

Scoring system

Points are awarded to the top 20 classified finishers in races one, three and four, with the second race awarding points to only the top 15. Race two, which reversed the order of the race one finishers, providing they set a lap time within 103% of the fastest driver, will be awarded extra points for positions gained from drivers' respective starting positions.
