The F1 Commission contemplates extending points to more drivers.

The F1 Commission is considering a significant change to the sport's points system, proposing an extension beyond the top 10 finishers. Many team principals have backed the proposal as the mid-field has become more competitive.

“We have 10 very strong teams. This year is a good example. We have a fantastic fight also in the second part of the grid, 10 cars fighting within one tenth , two tenths. Our pole position is P11, currently. Our win is P11 if nothing happens at the front, and the reliability of the guys at the front has been… extraordinary.

“We have a new fanbase also. We are not any more the purists that we were for these many years. So I think it is really time to have a look at this. McLaren Racing CEO, Zak Brown, proposed an even more expansive approach, suggesting that points could be awarded to every finisher, mirroring the IndyCar series system.
