Football clubs' race statistics

Races 1 and 2
Super Finals
Total

Race 3 (the Super Final) results apply only for certain rounds: Magny-Cours, Donington Park, Estoril and Jarama in 2009, and every race in 2010. Points for the Super Final were only awarded in 2010. The above table may not be fully representative of the truth in a clubs' performance due to the points scoring system change that happened prior to the 2010 season. Fluctuations in the number of clubs taking part in any given race and the total number of races any club has taken part in overall may also lead to statistical misrepresentations in the data.
