As an addition to the posts I wrote on the different points systems used since 1950 and their fairness the other day, ManipeF1 has written an excellent post where he compares the greatest drivers of the sport using a normalised points scoring system here: A alternative view of points-scoring comparisons.

I think his post and the ones I have just done make excellent companions – his post is a very interesting way of looking at things!

Recently, the Sporting Working Group met in Paris and decided to vote through some proposals that would hopefully improve the racing this year. The most important of these was a radical change to the points system, which would drastically increase the amount of points for a win and award points down to tenth place, in order to help the new teams score some points this year (From my blog 'Making Up The Numbers).

It’s Driver Consistency time for the Brazilian Grand Prix – who sizzled under the Samba sunshine and who had too many caipirinha’s before the race?

Time to see who was a Singapore Flyer and who had too many Singapore Slings – yes, it’s Driver Consistency time from my blog - "Making Up the Numbers"!

Here is the Driver Consistency post for the Italian Grand Prix - as a bonus I compared Barrichello and Kovalainen's laptimes, analysed the championship standings (and what each driver has to do to win), and then looked at what would have happened if we used a medals system.

Hope you like it - and please leave comments!
