#FIA SUPER LICENSE POINTS DRIVERS DRIVER#
– Additionally, the champion of FIA Formula E will be awarded a Super Licence despite the series not being allocated any SL eligibility points.Īs of the July 2015 WMSC meeting, any driver racing in Formula E (effectively from the start of Season 2 in September 2015) must have accumulated 20 points towards a Super Licence according to the scale in the PDF, or have previously held a Super Licence, or have raced in the series for at least 3 races in the previous season. These aren’t championship points for those series, they are purely points assigned to the finishing positions by the FIA for Super Licence purposes. – If none of the above, to gain a Super Licence a driver must amass 40 points over the previous 3 years using the points scale in this download: – Or have previously held the Super Licence and been a regular test driver with an F1 World Championship team in the previous year.

– Drivers must have made at least 5 starts in the F1 World Championship in the previous year, or 15 starts in the previous 3 years. – Drivers must have completed 300km of testing in a Formula 1 car that is not older than 3 years. This is to acknowledge the current situation with the lack of testing in F1 (test drivers, etc.). – A Super Licence holder retains it for 3 years even if he or she does not compete in Formula 1. – “There is a verification of knowledge of the F1 Sporting Regulations / International Sporting Code rules.” – Drivers must be at least 18 years of age. – Drivers must hold a FIA International Grade A competition licence. – Drivers must hold a valid road drivers’ licence. My information is based entirely on FIA World Motorsport Council press releases from December 2014 and July 2015 and the rules as they were in about 2011. These documents state changes have been made to the previous regulations, not that the previous regulations have been replaced, so I assume many of the older rules still apply. This will take effect from the 2016 season. In 2015 the FIA World Motor Sport Council announced a new system they claimed would enhance the old structure. It is based on allocating points to results in different championships according to a weighted scale, drivers applying for a Super Licence must collect a minimum level of points over 3 years. There is no public list of Super Licence holders and there is often confusion over which drivers are eligible. Drivers may only compete in Formula 1 if he or she holds a ‘Super Licence’.
