Points systemPoints towards the World Championship for Makes were awarded for the first ten eligible finishers in each race in the order of 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1. A make was only awarded points for its highest finishing eligible car and no points were awarded for placings gained by any other car of that make. Only the best seven results counted towards the championship, with any other points earned not included in the total. Discarded points are shown within brackets. Half points were awarded for Round 7 due to the race being stopped prior to half distance. The same points system was applied to each of the three Divisional awards, with cars classified as follows: - Division 1:[1] Up to 2000cc [2]
- Division 2:[1] 2001 - 3000cc [2]
- Division 3:[1] 3001 - 6000cc [2]

World Championship for Sports Cars{{main|1977 World Sportscar Championship season}}For 1977, the FIA again organised two separate World Championships for “sports cars”, with Group 6 cars contesting the World Championship for Sports Cars and production-based cars competing in the World Championship for Makes. Events in which both types of car ran, such as the 12 Hours of Sebring or 24 Hours of Le Mans, were not counted towards either championship. Following the 1977 season, the World Championship of Makes would become the sole international championship, while the World Championship for Sports Cars would be downgraded by the FIA to become the European Sportscar Championship. That series would only last the 1978 season before being dissolved.
