How are F1 points awarded?
Formula 1 awards points to the top ten finishers in a Grand Prix. The winner receives 25 points, second place gets 18, and it scales down to 1 point for tenth. This system ensures that consistency across the season, not just race wins, is crucial for championship contenders like Kimi Antonelli.
