    The Formula 1 World Championship Standings determine who will be the Champion at the end of the season. In this sport, there are two different World Championship standings. A Drivers’ Championship and a Constructors’ Championship. They both run hand-in-hand but determine two different winners. One for the drivers, and one for the teams. \n\nThe Formula One standings have been running since the inception of the World Championship in 1950. The first official World Championship race, with points awarded, took place at Silverstone with the British Grand Prix. In every race since then, points have been awarded in various formats. \n\nIn modern Formula 1, points are handed out to all finishers inside the top ten. The winner of each race secures 25 points in the World Championship. The driver who finishes a Grand Prix in second-place will earn 18 points. The driver who completes the podium in third-place scores 15 points. \n\nThe rest of the top ten pick up points. 4th place scores 12 points, and 5th gets 10 points. Each place scores two points less than the previous place, until 10th who scores one point. One bonus point is available for a driver who achieves the fastest lap in the Grand Prix and finishes inside the top ten. \n\nIn 2021, Formula 1 introduced Sprint Races which help form the grid for qualifying. In his inaugural year, only the top three drivers scored points for this. However, in 2022 the top eight drivers in the sprint race scored points. Eight points go to the winner of the sprint race and therefore the driver starting the Grand Prix from 1st place. Seven points go to second-place, and six points go to third-place. The points are reduced by one until the final point is awarded to eighth-place. \n\nFor the Constructors’ Championship, the points scored by drivers racing for their Formula 1 team are combined to give a total number for their team. If a team achieves a one-two finish whereby the teammates finish a race 1st and 2nd, the team will score 43 points and this total will be added to the Constructors’ Championship. \n\nIn Formula 1, the prestige lies in the Drivers’ World Championship, and the money lies in the Constructors’ World Championship. The finishing order of the Constructors’ World Championship also determines how much time each team gets in the Wind Tunnel for the following F1 season. \n
