Top finishing crews score points as follows: 25, 18, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2. All crews who finish a rally will be awarded 1 point.

Drivers may nominate one event as their 'joker', on which if they finish in the top five they will score additional points: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Position 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th
Points 25 18 15 12 10 8 6 4 2 1
Joker Points 5 4 3 2 1

There will be two full points scoring opportunities on the Rali Ceredigion. Full championship points will be available in both Leg 1 and Leg 2 of the rally.

For the final round of the Championship, the points total for that rally will be multiplied by 1.5. Joker points will not be effected by this multiplier

Competitors five best scores will count towards their championship total.
