Note:
- The above table reflects the points awarded to each driver at each round as shown in Australian Motor Racing Year 1991/92 on pages 302 & 303. The final points listing shown on page 303 varies slightly from this.
- There were only nine finishers at Rounds 9 and 10.[3]
- Round 12 at Lakeside was stopped due to an accident [2] and only half points were awarded.[3]
gollark: The reason for it over here is sensible if probably annoying for said students: they can charge exactly £9250/year to domestic students, which is magically loaned to you by the government, but no such restrictions exist for international students.
gollark: I guess so. At least I'm not an international student.
gollark: I apparently have to pick a course within a few months before applying to university, and because the English system is so perfect and without flaw™ cannot really do the American thing of studying multiple things and specializing later. Fun!
gollark: Do related things and pick later?
gollark: As you can see, they're very pingy.
