For instance :
Bronze driver = 1 point
Silver driver = 2 points
Gold driver = 3 points
Platinum driver = 4 points.
Say that 3 drivers line-ups should have a maximum of 7 points when you add them all and you effectively ban too strong combinations like Platinum+Platinum+Silver. You also give more room to gold and silver drivers.

I see what you mean.
Maybe 8 points would be better than 7?
7 would rule out bronze-platinum-gold too.
Ironically, both 7 and 8 would rule out platinum-platinum-bronze lineup, so that would exclude all of Van Eerd - Van der Garde - De Vries (9), Rusinov - Jensen - Vergne (G-S-P = 9), Gonzalez-Davison-da Costa (S-P-P = 10), Hanson-Albuquerque-Di Rest (S-P-P = 10)
So that system would never be accepted by Van Eerd, Rusinov or Hanson.
Brundle-Owen-Van Uitert (G-S-G = 8) would be allowed at 8, banned at 7.
