Additionally, the top five of every leg get 7-5-3-2-1 points. The season is divided into two parts (first 5 and last 6 rallies). From each part, only the 4 best results for each driver count towards the championship. To qualify for the final standings, a driver has to participate in at least 5 events and in at least 1 in each part of the season.
