      F1 news: Points system change announcement made

      Formula 1 teams have opted to postpone the call on whether to make changes to the points system until later this year.

      With F1’s midfield teams lobbying to extend the points allocation to reward those finishing in the top 12 from 2025, rather than just the top 10, the topic featured on the agenda for Thursday’s F1 Commission meeting in Geneva.

      It has now emerged, however, that those in attendance agreed to allow for more time in order to examine the potential implications of the change.

      In a statement, the FIA communicated: “Commission members discussed a proposal for changes to the distribution of championship points, as described in Articles 6.4 and 6.5 of the sporting regulations.

      “It was agreed that further analysis of proposed changes was required with a view to a proposal to be presented to the F1 Commission meeting in July.”
