When they're equal on points (or lack thereof) why not rank them by best result instead then. James took a best finish of 12th this season - but in a race with only 13 finishers. It doesn't mean that his 12th was better than Hughes' best result of 14th in a race with 18th finishers.

That is a perfect reason why the top 15 should not score.
