About these data

Data: F1DB · Marcel Overdijk and contributors, CC BY 4.0. Adapted for season-based display; source points are preserved.

Points are retained from the source standings. We do not recalculate historical seasons using the modern scoring system. Drivers who changed teams may have multiple constructors.

Team names use the constructor and engine from this season. A driver’s number is shown only when the same number is verified across all of their results that season.
