What do you think of the new system?
Under the new points system, drivers will be awarded 43 points for first place, 42 for second and one point less for every following position down to last. The winner will receive three bonus points with one bonus point awarded for leading a lap and one for leading the most laps.
The winner will receive a minimum of 47 points and a maximum of 48. Second will receive a minimum of 42 points and a maximum of 44.
The Chase field will remain 12 teams, but now the top 10 will be set on points with the next two spots based on wins for drivers not in the top 10, but inside the top 20. If there is a tie for either of the final two spots for most wins among those outside the top 10, the final spot or spots would be based on points. If all the wins are among top-10 drivers, the final two spots will be set on points.
Seeding for the Chase will be based on wins, with three points awarded for each during the first 26 races. But the 11th and 12th spots will not be awarded bonus seeding points for their wins.
