Points system
Championship points were awarded on a 9-6-4-3-2-1 basis to the top six placegetters in each round.[1]
Where rounds were contested over two heats, points were allocated on a 20-16-13-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis for the first 14 positions in each race.[1] These points were then aggregated to determine the first six round positions for the purpose of championship points allocation.[1]
