Question 1

What are the current F1 standings?

Accepted Answer

The current 2026 Formula 1 World Championship standings are updated after every race weekend. The F1 standings table ranks all drivers by their accumulated points, with 25 points awarded for a race win, 18 for second, 15 for third, and so on down to 1 point for tenth place. You can see the live standings table, points progression chart, and race-by-race analysis on this page.

Question 2

How many points does each finishing position score in F1?

Accepted Answer

Points are awarded to the top 10 finishers in every Grand Prix: 1st = 25 pts, 2nd = 18 pts, 3rd = 15 pts, 4th = 12 pts, 5th = 10 pts, 6th = 8 pts, 7th = 6 pts, 8th = 4 pts, 9th = 2 pts, 10th = 1 pt. An additional bonus point is awarded for the fastest lap, but only if that driver finishes in the top 10. Sprint races award half those values to the top 8 finishers (8 pts for 1st down to 1 pt for 8th). The driver with the most points at the end of the season wins the World Drivers' Championship.

Question 3

Does F1 have penalty points that can be deducted from championship standings?

Accepted Answer

No — championship points are never deducted as a penalty. F1 uses a separate superlicense penalty point system to discipline drivers for on-track incidents. These points accumulate on a driver's superlicense (not their championship tally), and any driver who reaches 12 superlicense penalty points within a 12-month rolling period receives a one-race ban. Superlicense points expire after 12 months. On-track penalties such as drive-throughs, time penalties, or grid drops affect race results — and therefore indirectly affect championship points — but no points are ever directly subtracted from the standings.

Question 4

What is the Formula 1 tabela (F1 standings table)?

Accepted Answer

The Formula 1 tabela — or F1 standings table — shows the current points ranking for all drivers and constructors in the 2026 season. The table is updated after every Grand Prix and sprint race weekend. The Field provides the live F1 championship table with full points progression charts, head-to-head comparisons, and season analysis.

Question 5

Where can I see the live F1 championship table?

Accepted Answer

You can see the live 2026 F1 championship standings table right here on The Field. The page updates after every race weekend and shows both the Driver Championship and Constructor Championship standings, along with an interactive points progression chart and in-depth season analysis.
