WEC awards championship points to the top ten finishers in each class, scored independently for Hypercar and LMGT3. At a standard six-hour round the scale is:
25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1
So a class win is worth 25 points, down to a single point for tenth.
What makes endurance scoring distinctive is that not every race is worth the same. The longer rounds carry more points, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans pays double — a reflection of how much the blue-riband event matters to a title fight. There is also a bonus point for pole position.
One eligibility rule catches manufacturers out: to be in the running for the manufacturers' title, a marque must contest every round of the season. Miss a race and the crown is off the table.
These points decide the season's drivers' and manufacturers' championships. For the different race lengths that feed into the table, see how a WEC race weekend works.
