Table key, points system and championship rules
  • Highlight: Rookie
  • Bold: pole position
  • Underline: fastest lap
  • Bold & underline: pole & fastest lap
  • DNQ: Did not qualify
  • NC: Not classified
  • DSQ: Disqualified
  • DNS: Did not start

The top six classified finishers of each race were awarded points on the following basis:

  • 1st (9)
  • 2nd (6)
  • 3rd (4)
  • 4th (3)
  • 5th (2)
  • 6th (1)

Only the best 11 results counted towards the championship.

Numbers shown without parentheses are the points scored that counted towards the championship; numbers in parentheses are the total number of points scored.

Notes

  • Yannick Dalmas was ineligible to score championship points since he was driving the second car for Lola, who had only officially entered one car for the season. As a result, this meant Dalmas’ fifth-place finish at the Australian Grand Prix resulted in no points for the driver or constructor.
