Drivers Championship
Points were awarded to the drivers of the top 10 placed cars in the order of 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1[1] and drivers of C2 cars were also awarded 2 bonus points if they finished in any of the top ten outright positions.[2] However points were not awarded if a driver:
- drove more than one car in the race[3]
- failed to drive the car for at least 30% of the distance[3]
- drove a car which did not complete 90% of the winner's distance
All drivers were eligible to score points in the overall championship, but drivers of C2 class cars were also awarded points separately for their own title.
Only half points were awarded at Round 9 due to the race being stopped[3] with less than 50% distance having been covered.
World Endurance Championship for Drivers
The 1985 FIA World Endurance Championship for Drivers was awarded jointly to Rothmans Porsche teammates Hans-Joachim Stuck and Derek Bell who shared a Porsche 962C throughout the season
Group C2
The Group C2 title was awarded to Gordon Spice and Ray Bellm who shared a Tiga Ford entered by Spice Engineering.
Teams Championship
Points were awarded to the top 10 finishers in the order of 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1, however
- Teams were only given points for their highest finishing car; any other team cars were merely skipped in the points allocation
- Teams did not score points if the car did not complete 90% of the winner's distance.
All cars were eligible to score for their team in the overall championship, but C2 class cars were also awarded points separately for their own title.
Rounds 2, 8, and 10 were not part of the Teams Championship and counted only for the Drivers titles.
Only half points were awarded at Round 9 due to the race being stopped with less than 50% distance having been covered.[3]
