Formula 1 Teams’ Championship

The Formula 1 Teams’ Championship is another name for the Constructors’ Championship: the season-long title awarded to the team that scores the most combined points across both cars. For 2026, Mercedes leads the standings with 219 points, ahead of Ferrari on 147 and McLaren on 106. [skysports](https://www.skysports.com/f1/standings)

## Page intro

The Teams’ Championship is decided by the results of both drivers on each squad, so every race matters from the first lap to the final flag. This page works well as a standings hub, a rules explainer, and a season tracker for fans who want the bigger team picture in Formula 1.

## How it works

Each team earns points based on where both drivers finish in each Grand Prix, with the top ten positions scoring points. The standard F1 points system gives 25 points for first place, then 18, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, and 1 for tenth, and an extra point can go to the fastest lap if the driver finishes inside the top ten. At the end of the season, the team with the highest total wins the championship. [bbc](https://www.bbc.com/sport/formula1/articles/cp83kpe9d93o)

## Why it matters

The Teams’ Championship affects prize money, prestige, and the way teams approach strategy through the season. A strong second driver can be just as important as a race winner, because every point adds to the constructors’ total. That is why pit strategy, reliability, and consistency often matter as much as outright speed.
