# Standings

This section covers how to retrieve championship standings for both drivers and constructors, and how to filter standings by season.

### In this section

* **Championship standings** - How to retrieve the driver standings and constructor standings, enrich them with driver and team data, and filter by season.

### Drivers standings vs constructor standings

The API provides two standing types: driver standings (individual championship positions) and constructor standings (team championship positions). Both are available via the Standings endpoints.

To retrieve the driver standings for a specific season:

```http
https://docs.sportmonks.com/v3/motorsport/standings/drivers/seasons/SEASON_ID
?api_token=YOUR_TOKEN
```

To enrich with driver details:

```http
https://docs.sportmonks.com/v3/motorsport/standings/drivers/seasons/SEASON_ID
?api_token=YOUR_TOKEN
&include=driver
```

To retrieve constructor standings for a season:

```http
https://docs.sportmonks.com/v3/motorsport/standings/teams/seasons/SEASON_ID
?api_token=YOUR_TOKEN
```

### Points mid-session

During a live race, the `POINTS` type in `lineups.details` returns the points a driver would receive if they finished in their current position. This is distinct from the season standings, which only update after a session is confirmed as finished.

See [Results and Live Data Type Reference](https://docs.sportmonks.com/v3/motorsport-api/welcome/results-and-live-data-type-reference) for the POINTS type ID and availability.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sportmonks.com/v3/motorsport-api/tutorials-and-guides/tutorials/standings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
