Impossible with 30 place grid penalty,pole is the person starting the race in first position can you clarify a couple of points , is it the driver qualifying with the fastest time that gets the points in qualifying ? if a driver gets a timed
penalty in a race how does that score is it the position he crosses the finishing line or after his penalty , and all drivers on 0 points are they not 19= ? Thanks

A driver can qualify on pole position and subsequently be demoted. You can see this if you check the official FIA session classifications. The driver setting the fastest time in Q3 will always be at the top. Take a look at the official documents for the last round and you will see there are documents for the qualifying classification and the starting grid.

Race positions are taken from the official classification which include any time penalties a driver picks up in the race.

Some good scoring at the top of the table sees the top three pull away a little from the chasing pack. At the bottom a good score from Stunty moves them up a place and away from the wooden spoon position currently occupied by Woodentop.

Results in full:
Pole: Rosberg (2pts)
Tier 1: Rosberg (2pts)
Tier 2: Ricciardo (2pts)
Tier 3: Alonso (2pts)
DPAW: Gutierrez (2pts - 19th WDC to 12th race)

A quick reminder that it is straight onto Italy this weekend.
