The FIA has announced that “further analysis” is required before F1’s po♑ints 𝔍system is potentially changed for the 2025 F1 season.

Outlined in a media statement by the FIA on Thursday afternoon, members of the F1 Commission discussed a pr🦂oposal🥃 of changing the sport’s points system.

The new prop🥂osed system would look to award points to the top 12 finishers, rather than top 10, to give midfielཧd teams more to fight for during grand prix weekends.

The FIA noted: “Commission members discus🌟sed a proposal for changes to the distribution of Championship points, as described in Articles 6.4 and 6.5 of the Sporting Regulations.

“It was agreed that further analysis of proposed chan꧃ges was required with a view to a proposal to be presented to the F1 Commission meeting in July.”

Plan𒀰s to change the points system in F1 have been met fa𒅌irly positively.

RB boss Laurent Mekies💎🧸, formerly of the FIA, has backed the idea.

He said:𓂃 “Of course, I will support that. “There are no backmarkers any more. There are six OEMs in F1, plus Red Bull Racing, so it's like seven top teams.

“Even the bottom five teams are large𒆙 organisations now and it's very difficult to explain to the outside world, to our partners, and to our fans, that we battle for a P11 that actually grants zero points.”

Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu and Ferrari boss Frederic Vasseur are🍌 also supportive of the new points system.

However, it has been m𓂃et with some criticism, particularly from Martin Brundlಌe.

“Formula One world championship points must be har💧d won and treasured,” he wrote on his X account. “Valued. Not some kind of lucky dip where everyone wins a prize.”

The FIA also confirmed that discussion on wh🍒ere pre-season testing will take pla🧔ce occurred and that rear-view facing cameras will be introduced from the Spanish Grand Prix onwards.
