Tartarus-1960

The 1950s & 1960s saw the first F1 seasons, with three different scoring systems. Gaia, Tartarus and Eros are the three first entities to emerge from Chaos in Greek mythology.

Gaia represents the 1950-59 period, and Eros represents the years 1961-66.

Tartarus is the universe where they use the scoring system from 1960: 8-6-4-3-2-1 for the first 6 drivers of each race. But there's a catch. At the end of the season, only just over half of your best race results are retained towards the World Championship points.

The 1960 season had 10 races. But only the best 6 race results of a driver mattered in the end. And 6 is just over 50% of 10.

For example, if a season has 21 races, then 21/2 = 10.5, and 11 is just over 50% of 21 races. So only a driver's best 11 race results matter in the end.

We find this "just over the 50% of races" criteria throughout the 1960s.

Scores between parentheses are the drivers' scores if they had counted every race result. There's another universe, Typhon-1960, where they use the 1960 points system but they keep every race result. So scores between parentheses are the same scores you can find in Typhon.

Tartarus is almost identical to Eros, except for 1981 Carlos Reutemann.
