TERRIBLE BUT CHAOTIC POINTS SYSTEM
Instead of using the denary system, we use the hexodecimal system;
In denary, each digit increases in value by a factor of 10 (100, 10, 1, etc). In Hexodecimal, each digit increases in value by a factor of 16;
Because I can't be bothered to add letters to numbers and whatnot, I thought that it would be better to assign each digit to a specific Grand Prix weekend (Like Monza gets the highest digit, Madring gets the lowest);
Each Grand Prix scores F (15) for a win and 1 for 15th, sliding down by 1 value for each position;
This is then multiplied by the digit value for that Grand Prix weekend (so a win at Monza would be equal to 15 x 16 to the power of 22, assuming the current 23 round 2026 calendar holds);
The Driver with the most points at the end of the season is crowned the World Driver's Champion;
The Driver's points are converted into Denary and then added to find the World Constructor's Champion.
It would cause a massive farce, be incredibly hard to follow and be incredibly chaotic. Let me know what you think of this. I DO NOT think this should be the points system for F1, but imagine a season like 2008 under this system.
