Championship standings
Scoring system
Championship points are awarded for the first ten positions in each race. The pole-sitter in Race 1 and Race 2 and the driver with the fastest lap in Race 1 and Race 2 also receive one point. The grid for Race 1 is decided by a normal qualifying, but the grid for Race 2 is decided by everyone's second best time in qualifying. If a guest driver gets Pole Position, the point will go to the best qualified regular driver. If a guest driver has the fastest lap, the point will go to the regular driver with the fastest lap. Entries are required to complete 75% of the winning car's (per division) race distance in order to be classified and earn points. Participants who join less than 4 events (8 races) will be treated as guest drivers and will not be included in the scoring and will not receive any points. All results shall count towards the year-end standings. There are no scratch results. If there are in a division on average less than 6 participants the overall points standing will be reduced with 75%.
