Funny that the commentators talk about points all the time but never actually seemed to discuss what the points scale is. So whenever they say. Oh Racer A has a 4 point lead over Racer B. That means nothing to me. With that said. The drivers championship in GTE is what interest me for Bahrain. Ferrari looks to have a good shot at manufacturers at this point. They have had by far the most occasions where both cars finished in the top 5 in GTE overall (combined pro/am). Both the 51 and 71 will have to get knocked out early to lose it which I don't think will happen. I really enjoyed watching the GTE race at Shanghai. It was excellent for many reasons. For me it was because it was Ford and Porsche battling it for the win this time rather than AF Corse and AMR which I am less of a fan of.
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
Contenders for drivers:
1. 51 Ferrari (Calado/Pier Guidi) 120
2. 91 Porsche (Lietz/Makowiecki) 115
Will be cheering for the #91 for sure. They will have to win with he 51 finishing 3rd or worse.
