The chart adds up every point scored. The official table applies the rules of the time (dropped results, or only the best-placed car scoring for a team), so some totals below are lower.

Over the races in which both drivers had a result for the team. Qualifying: who qualified ahead (from the starting grid: there is no qualifying data for this season). Race: who finished ahead, counted only when both were classified. Points: race and sprint points from those races, before dropped results (not every result counted towards the championship).
