How is the World Champion title awarded?
There are two titles, one for the Drivers World Championship and one for the Constructors Championship. The drivers’ title has been awarded since 1950, and the constructors’ since 1958. The constructors add together the points scored in every race by each car of their make (they cannot enter more than two), in the same way as the drivers accumulate the total number of points scored in each event. In the event of two drivers having the same number of points, the title is decided on the basis of the quality of the places obtained, that is, the number of first places, followed by the number of second places, etc. 10.
