In each race, drivers will score points on the following scale: 20-18-16-14-12-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 to the first 15 drivers in each race, with an additional point for pole position and a point for fastest lap in each race. Once again in 2009, the Carrera Cup GB will continue to have a pro-am category for non-professional drivers. Trophies will be awarded to the drivers who finish in first, second and third place in each race in both the pro and pro-am categories. Pro-am drivers' points count towards both the pro and pro-am categories.

Continuing in 2009 is the pro-am2 category for drivers competing in 2007 model year cars and earlier. Points will be scored on the basis of 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1, with an additional point for pole position and a point for fastest lap in each race. Pro-am2 points can only be scored in eight race weekends.
