F1’s new points system on course to get support it needs
As reported by Motorsport.com prior to the Chinese Grand Prix, Formula 1 teams will discuss with the FIA and FOM about potentially revising the points system for the 2025 season to reward down to 12th place. The proposal aims to address concerns that the domination of the top 10 positions by the leading teams is limiting opportunities for midfield teams to score points. The new system would keep the top seven positions unchanged but redistribute points from 8th place downwards. To be implemented, the proposal needs majority support from at least five teams, as well as approval from the FIA and FOM. Teams like Ferrari and Red Bull are open to the change, seeing it as a way to make the championship more competitive.
