New points system to be launched in 2010

-
It is a foregone conclusion that next season will see a change in the points awarded for races. Since there will be more cars on the grid, the FIA has seen it fit to increase points collection positions from 8 to 10 and the points collected for each position also increases.

This is how it works out:

1st: 25
2nd: 20
3rd: 15
4th: 10
5th: 8
6th: 6
7th: 5
8th: 3
9th: 2
10th: 1

This probably will make it more interesting but it would be a chore to be calculating the points and drivers positions on the fly. We'd definitely need a paper and pen handy everytime during a race.

LEWIS HAMILTON SPARKS F1 FRENZY WITH MYSTERIOUS “08.08” TEASE ON INSTAGRAM

Lewis has once again captured the imagination of the Formula 1 world—this time not with a blistering lap or a dramatic overtake, but with a cryptic Instagram Story that sent shockwaves through the F1 community. On July 30, the seven-time world champion shared a moody image of a smoking matchstick resting against a box of matches. But it wasn’t the aesthetic that caught fans’ attention. It was the numbers printed on the box: 08.08. Just two digits, but enough to set off a firestorm of speculation about what Lewis is about to announce on August 8th. No caption. No further context. Just a smoky teaser during F1’s summer break—and a wave of questions. Right In The Middle Of The Summer Break August 8 falls neatly in the middle of Formula 1’s traditional summer shutdown, a quiet window when teams regroup, factories go dark, and fans get a breather. But leave it to Lewis to stir the pot during the calm. The Ferrari star has always had a flair for the dramatic, and his fans know better than to...

FERRARI UNDER PRESSURE AS LEWIS HAMILTON CALLS FOR URGENT CHANGES TO SF-25 STEERING AND SUSPENSION

-

Ferrari’s 2025 Formula 1 campaign has been a rollercoaster ride of potential and frustration. While the legendary Italian team has shown flashes of competitiveness, inconsistency and recurring technical issues have held them back. At the heart of the matter now is the SF-25’s steering and suspension setup, which has drawn criticism from both of its star drivers — Lewis and Charles Leclerc. With the second half of the season fast approaching, Ferrari is scrambling to bring performance upgrades to the SF-25, hoping to salvage race-winning form. But as Lewis strongly warns, the team cannot afford to carry over these limitations into the 2026 car. Steering Complaints Date Back To Early In The Season It turns out Ferrari's steering problems aren't new. Charles Leclerc first raised concerns about the SF-25’s steering feel all the way back at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in April. At that time, his complaint was relatively low-key — a passing comment in the post-race cooldown room. Bu...

After 18 years with Mercedes, the seven-time world champion faces the challenge of adapting to a new team, car, and culture.
