I do not follow Formula 1, I just stumbled across this post browsing the main page. Why does the person in 1st have twice as many points as the next runner up? Is this a quirk of how Formula 1 scoring is done or did they actually just win by that much?
1st gets 25 points, second gets 18 per race. He consistently won nearly every race this season whereas second place was less consistent.
