I've been reading my F1 racing mag and came across this:
Article 7, the dead heat
7.1 Prizes and points awarded for all the positions of competitors who tie, will be added together and shared equally.
7.2 If two or more constrctors or drivers finish the season with the same number of points, the higher place in the Championship (in either case) shall be awarded to:
a) the holder of the greatest number of first places,
b) if the number of first places is the same, the holder of the greatest number of second places,
c) if the number of second places is the same, the holder of the greatest number of third places and so on until a winner emerges.
d) IF THIS PROCEDURE FAILS TO PRODUCE A RESULT, THE FIA WILL NOMINATE THE WINNER ACCORDING TO SUCH CRITERIA AS IT THINKS FIT.
What criteria do you think the FIA would deem as 'fit'?
Also has this ever actually happened?
