Eddie Jordan has offered his view on the new points system proposal.
Former F1 team owner Eddie Jordan criticized the proposed change to the points system, which suggested awarding points up to 12th place, a proposal that was unanimously rejected in 2024. Despite the F1 Commission confirming in July that the change wouldn’t happen, Jordan still fears that eventually all positions will be awarded points. The F1 points system has evolved over the years, from only the top six getting points to the current system where the top 10 drivers receive points since 2010. Jordan, along with former F1 driver David Coulthard, opposes the idea, emphasizing the significance of the winner over other positions. While there was no change to the points system for the 2025 season, Jordan anticipates that points may be given to all drivers in the future, advocating against further alterations. Jordan emphasized his stance against expanding points distribution, labeling it as mere “nonsense.”
