Update ye, oh mighty updater!
After Abu Dhabi
1. Red Bull - 293pt (DNF)
2. Ferrari - 237pt (+25)
3. Lotus-Renault - 188pt (DNF)
4. McLaren - 177pt (DNF)
5. Force India - 176pt (DNF)
6. Toro Rosso - 143pt (+15)
7. Williams - 120pt (+18)
8. Sauber - 120pt (+12)
9. Mercedes - 102pt (DNF)
10. Caterham - 84pt (+10)
11. Marussia - 50pt (DNF)
12. Hispania - 17pt (DNF)
Big winners in this race of attrition are Williams, Ferrari and Caterham, as Ferrari move themselves to an all-but-unassailable 2nd place, Williams take a stride away from, while Caterham haul, Mercedes. Caterham now have a golden chance to nab a non-bottom-three finish, hoping that Schumacher phones in the rest of the season...
After USA
1. Red Bull - 293pt (DNF)
2. Ferrari - 262pt (+25)
3. Lotus-Renault - 203pt (+15)
4. McLaren - 195pt (+18)
5. Force India - 184pt (+8)
6. Toro Rosso - 143pt (DNF)
7. Williams - 132pt (+12)
8. Sauber - 130pt (+10)
9. Mercedes - 108pt (+6)
10. Caterham - 88pt (+4)
11. Marussia - 52pt (+2)
12. Hispania - 18pt (+1)
The table starts to resolve properly now. Red Bull have the title while Ferrari are now guaranteed 2nd. 3rd-5th are separated by just 19 points, with Lotus, McLaren and Force India all in the hunt. Hispania are plum last with Marussia second last.
The mid-pack is less clear. Toro Rosso, Williams and Sauber seem to be fighting 6th-8th between themselves, though 9th place Mercedes can leap two of those three with the right result. Caterham still have an eye on that Mercedes ninth, but it would require a thoroughly ludicrous result to achieve it - having the highest finishing 2nd car of anyone... Still, it's Brazil, where half the field once parked in the middle of the Senna S.
Caterham are clearly the class act of the "new" teams, despite the fluke Marussia result that sees them displaced in the real world table, racking up enough points to worry an established team with enough draw for world champion drivers this season and next, managing more than half the score of anyone outside the podium-fighting teams - while Marussia languish on a third and Hispania barely manage a third of Marussia's points...

No further movement occurs as the Williams/Sauber battle is killed on lap 1 by Vettel, Lotus run out of points-scoring oppotunity with Grosjean's self-inflicted retirement and McLaren are prevented from catching them by Nico Hulkenberg.
Ferrari do manage a third success maximum point score and Caterham manage a remarkable result (luckily managing to settle the real-life argument in their favour too) that doesn't quite see them catching up with Mercedes.
So there you have it. The ultimate measure of 2012's cars' speed, reliability and relative driver pairings. It's fun seeing Hulkenberg and Hamilton moving down...

And lo, 2013 did start...
After Australia
1. Ferrari - 25pt (+25)
2. Red Bull - 18pt (+18)

8= Mercedes - 0 (DNF)
8= Toro Rosso - 0 (DNF)
8= Sauber - 0 (DNF)
8= Williams - 0 (DNF)
There's not really anything to say at this early point. Ferrari, Lotus and Red Bull carrying on where they left off, Force India picking up reliability points and Mercedes losing them - and Pastor Maldonado again costing Williams some.

Oh Red Bull...
Mercedes make up for race 1 with a 2nd place finish, while Lotus round off the podium and bump up to 2nd. McLaren's woes see them flanked by the young teams, while Force India drop into the clutches of the bottom teams.
And Williams. Pastor Maldonado. Nuff said.

Famine is probably too busy to keep this updated but I guess the FACC's standings are now like this. Famine, do correct if I got it wrong:
After China
1. Ferrari - 50pt (+25)
2. Lotus - 45pt (+18)
3. Red Bull - 43pt (DNF)
4. McLaren - 31pt (+15)
5. Marussia - 24pt (+8)
6. Caterham - 22pt (+6)
7. Mercedes - 18pt (DNF)
8. Toro Rosso - 16pt (+12)
9. Force India - 15pt (DNF)
10. Sauber - 12pt (DNF)
11. Williams - 10pt (+10)
After Bahrain
1. Lotus - 70pt (+25)
2. Red Bull - 61pt (+18)
3. Ferrari - 56pt (+6)
4. McLaren - 43pt (+12)
5. Mercedes - 33pt (+15)
6. Marussia - 26pt (+2)
7. Force India - 25pt (+10)
8. Caterham - 23pt (+1)
9. Williams - 18pt (+8)
10. Toro Rosso - 16pt (DNF)
11. Sauber - 16pt (+4)
EDIT: Not sure how Famine's system works with same-points-situations. Sauber and Toro Rosso both have two DNFs, once 4 points and once 12 points (as far as second drivers are concerned in this table of points).
So I chose STR over Sauber based on first driver finishing positions (7th in China, Sauber's best is 8th in Malaysia).
If we go by second driver finishing positions, then they are again tied with their best result being a 12th place (Sauber in Malaysia and STR in China).
And ... again tied for their second best result (18th. Sauber did it in Bahrain, STR in Malaysia).
And then we get two DNF's each
(but we can argue that Sauber's DNFs meant 22nd and last place in both cases, while STR's DNFs meant one 22nd place and one 19th place (Australia).)
So, in any case and whatever may be that Famine uses to order teams in these situations, I guess it's fair to put STR above Sauber.

Damn straight!
All looks good to me
Since FACC is a 2nd driver championship, I'd never use 1st driver results.EDIT: Not sure how Famine's system works with same-points-situations. Sauber and Toro Rosso both have two DNFs, once 4 points and once 12 points (as far as second drivers are concerned in this table of points).

The first tiebreaker is countback, but as you say this doesn't help us here:
Toro Rosso: 16pt (12, 4, DNF, DNF)
Sauber: 16pt (12, 4, DNF, DNF)
Now the official FIA line here is brilliant. It reads that if countback still results in a "dead heat":
So I'll go with how they decide ties in qualifying - whomever got their points on the board first. Sauber got their 12pt at Malaysia, Toro Rosso at China so for now it's Sauber above Toro Rosso.FIA F1 Sporting Regulations

10. Caterham - 33pt (+4)
11. Toro Rosso - 22pt (DNF)
You can probably see a pattern already developing here. Red Bull are making consistent pairs of finishes and are starting to build a healthy lead - already more than a race's worth. The next four teams are all picking up good finishes, but a little less often than they'd like - there's a hell of a second place scrap shaping up.
Force India are being cast off as best of the rest, while Sauber and Williams look to be making a head-to-head fight for 7th - but Marussia and Caterham haven't been ruled out yet. And consistently bottom of the tree with a hopeless attrition rate is Toro Rosso.

10. Caterham - 45pt (+4)
11. Toro Rosso - 42pt (DNF)
Leaving Europe, Red Bull have the healthiest of healthy leads - two entire races - while 2nd seems to be a Ferrari/Mercedes battle and 4th a Lotus/McLaren scrap. Force India are in a no-man's-land with Sauber similarly adrift in 6th and 7th. Williams are still fighting amongst the young teams - Toro Rosso managing a brief spurt of reliability only to then fall back into bad habits and sink to the bottom again...

Leaving Europe, Red Bull have the healthiest of healthy leads - two entire races - while 2nd seems to be a Ferrari/Mercedes battle and 4th a Lotus/McLaren scrap. Force India are in a no-man's-land with Sauber similarly adrift in 6th and 7th. Williams are still fighting amongst the young teams - Toro Rosso managing a brief spurt of reliability only to then fall back into bad habits and sink to the bottom again...

A second successive conflagration for Red Bull means their first no-score since the tyre construction was changed and drags Mercedes back to within a race (compare to real life where they're 2.5 races clear and the right result in Japan puts them a single 4th place from the title)...
After Korea
1. Red Bull - 223pt (DNF)
2. Mercedes - 205pt (+18)

It looks like the title is a fight between Red Bull and Mercedes - with Ferrari having an outside chance - while Lotus and McLaren will fight for 4th. Sauber and Force India seem to be left to squabble for 6th while Williams provide, in a lonely 8th, a target for eager Marussia and Caterham. If Toro Rosso can overcome their woeful reliability, they've still got a say in the midpack.

Toro Rosso solve their reliability and leap within sight of two places in two weekends. Up top, McLaren are fading and Red Bull's second DNF in three races sees the gap at the top closed right up - one more could see Mercedes take top spot and Ferrari are close in too...

If Red Bull finish ahead of Mercedes in the USA, the FATC is theirs - but any other result means the final race is the decider. Lotus's DNF means they can now do no better than 2nd and McLaren can do no better than 3rd, but the top 5 as a whole are now safe, with only the order to be determined.
It's all to play for still at the bottom too. Force India, Sauber and Williams have a fun little group that should persist to Interlagos and STR, Marussia and Caterham can still finish in any order.

Red Bull take the title - but at least it went further into the season than in the real world.
Mercedes and Ferrari are left to fight over 2nd place now as Lotus fall by the wayside - but nothing less than max points for Ferrari while Mercedes score 4 or less will do.
McLaren and Lotus now have a straight fight for fourth, while the same gap separates Sauber and Force India for 6th.
A very improbably set of circumstances is required for Williams to drop out of 8th place now, though Toro Rosso, Marussia and Caterham are largely interchangeable - if Brazil repeats its own 2003 performance, anything could happen.

For a laugh and to show the FACC method is objectively superior to the existing method of ranking the lowest scoring teams, here's the current F1 driver's championship ranked in the same way that teams that don't score points are ranked - countback.
1. Vettel (12 wins)
2. Alonso (2 wins; 5 seconds)
3. Rosberg (2 wins; 1 second)
4. Raikkonen (1 win; 6 seconds)
5. Hamilton (1 win; 5 thirds)
6. Webber (4 seconds)
7. Grosjean (1 second)
8. Massa (1 third)
9. Hulkenberg (1 fourth; 1 fifth)
10. Di Resta (1 fourth; 1 sixth)
11. Button (1 fifth; 3 sixths)
12. Perez (1 fifth; 1 sixth)
13. Sutil (1 fifth; 2 sevenths)
14. Vergne (1 sixth)
15. Ricciardo (2 sevenths)
16. Guttierez (1 seventh)
17. Bottas (1 eighth)
18. Maldonado (1 tenth)
19. Bianchi (1 thirteenth)
20. Pic (2 fourteenths)
21. van der Garde (1 fourteenth; 2 fifteenths)
22. Chilton (1 fourteenth; 1 sixteenth)
23. Kovalainen (1 fourteenth)
Any driver below Webber who wins a race at a probably-sopping Brazil this weekend - and race winners below Webber include Massa, Button and Maldonado - would leap Webber to be the 6th best driver this season. And that's any driver - if a weird set of circumstances left Chilton the only car in the field, he'd be the 6th best driver this season.
That's not exactly a satisfactory scoring system, yet it's the one we use for teams (and drivers) without points...
And for reference, this is exactly how Bernie wanted to score the driver's championship 3 years ago with his "medals" system...

Season analysis!
1st (-) Red Bull - 323pt
Vettel - 0pt/0%
Webber - 323pt/100%
Horribly unbalanced team, but with all the speed and reliability in the world - both cars finished on 15 occasions (78.9%) and they scored top points on 9 occasions (47.4%). In fact only one of their events wasn't a DNF, 1st or 2nd - Singapore.
2nd (-) Mercedes - 278pt
Rosberg - 128pt/46%
Hamilton - 150pt/54%
Reasonably well-balanced - each driver lead the team home 8 times, though the Malaysia result wasn't due to talent. Rosberg has the edge of the two drivers but only just.
Better reliability than Red Bull sees them finish on 16 occasions (84.2%) with 4 top finishes from 15 podium finishes, but the speed of the Red Bull isn't there.
3rd (-) Ferrari - 261pt
Alonso - 12pt/4.6%
Massa - 249pt/95.4%
Another terribly unbalanced team - Alonso only finished behind Massa when both cars finished once - but again, they had the reliability (16 finishes [15 on the podium] from 19) and Mercedes-equalling pace sees them just about par-for-par.
4th (+1) McLaren - 213pt
Button - 61pt/28.6%
Perez - 152pt/71.4%
You might be surprised to see McLaren up here with their relative dog of a car, but the fact is that they brought both cars home in every race - Perez achieved a classified finish at Monaco - and that goes a long way.
They achieved no top-scoring finishes, but 6 podia and a fair smattering of 4ths and 5ths meant they picked up points everywhere as faster, more fragile cars scored big one race and DNFed the next.
The team balance is not great though. For all Perez's exciting racecraft, his long game is inferior to Button's, leading his world champion teammate home just 6 times compared to Button's 13. Perhaps the clean slate of Kevin Magnussen will help them higher up the grid next season - but they need to be challenging the top two steps more effectively.
5th (-1) Lotus - 206pt
Raikkonen - 63pt/30.6%
Grosjean - 135pt/65.5%
Kovalainen - 8pt/3.9%
Lotus had just as much pace as the three teams above them - just as much as Red Bull in fact on occasion - but the reliability is what sees them languishing. Six non-finishes is as many as McLaren, Mercedes and Ferrari put together.
It's been a tale of two seasons for their drivers, with Raikkonen showing Grosjean his gearbox 7 times in the first 10 races, but only once since then - almost as if Kimi's heart wasn't in it any more. It's not like Kimi to be distracted by salary issues or contract negotiations and just give up. No wait, the other thing.
6th (+1) - Sauber - 137pt
Hulkenberg - 18pt/13.1%
Guttierez - 119pt/86.9%
Sauber defines a tale of two seasons. Since their last DNF at Hungary, they've picked up 83pt - more than Lotus in the same period - but again it's a combination of early season reliability and an unbalanced driver pairing that sees them the best placed of the smaller teams but not as far ahead as they could have been.
Retaining Hulk for 2014 is a must - of their 15 finishes, 12 have been with Hulkenberg leading Guttierez
7th (-1) - Force India - 132pt
Di Resta - 47pt/35.6%
Sutil - 85pt/64.4%
Force India shouldn't be down here - four podium finishes does not a 7th place team make - but reliability doesn't lie. 7 non-finishes puts them on the back foot and, though they score well when they score, they don't do it often enough. A midseason spell of 1 finish in 5 races did the majority of the damage.
Di Resta leads Sutil home twice as often as the reverse. The year out may have hurt Sutil's form but he's been just as much 2nd best in the back half of the season. Might be time for a change of personnel.
8th (+1) - Williams - 96pt
Maldonado - 32pt/33.3%
Bottas - 64pt/66.7%
Perhaps a surprise - the Williams has been terrible all season long - but they've dragged themselves round more often than competitors and kept ahead of the "new teams", picking up useful points in the process.
What's more surprising is that Maldonado - who has now twice scored just 1pt in a season, the poorest season's performances by any Williams driver in history - is consistently better than the teammate who's outscored him in the driver's table and been retained. Perhaps this will prove to be a mistake in 2014...
9th (-1) Toro Rosso - 80pt
Vergne - 42pt/52.5%
Ricciardo - 38pt/47.5%
A great balance between the two Red Bull juniors, let down by the worst reliability on the grid. 8 non-finishes saw STR flopping about at the arse end of the table, behing the new teams, right up until Hungary - only a 42pt haul in a 7 race spell saved them from this ignominy.
STR is the grid's enigma. The car has the pace to run top 10s, the drivers are broadly comparable in ability - and one's now graduated to the top team on the grid - but they can't qualify the damn thing and they keep stopping it well short of the finish.
10th (-) Marussia - 72pt
Bianchi - 10pt/13.9%
Chilton - 62pt/86.1%
Marussia have done a belting job this season, with only 3 non-finishes and a haul of points of which to be proud. Chilton's managed more FACC points than Caterham, highlighting the car's reliability but also perhaps that he's not the right man to get the car further up the field. A bit more speed and they'd be ahead of Toro Rosso...
11th (-) Caterham - 59pt
Pic - 16pt/27.1%
van der Garde - 43pt/72.9%
While Caterham were hoping for a fluke 13th place at Brazil to elevate them to 10th in the ludicrous "countback" constructors' championship, the truth is that they were already well beaten by then.
Consistently the best new team since they first arrived on the scene, Caterham have lost their way without the experience of race-winner Heikki Kovalainen on race day - they need to get a reasonable journeyman driver to get development back on track or 2014 will be more of the same.
1st (-) Red Bull - 323pt
Vettel - 0pt/0%
Webber - 323pt/100%
Horribly unbalanced team, but with all the speed and reliability in the world - both cars finished on 15 occasions (78.9%) and they scored top points on 9 occasions (47.4%). In fact only one of their events wasn't a DNF, 1st or 2nd - Singapore.

2014, the season so far...
1. Mercedes - 50pt (DNF, 25, 25)
2. McLaren - 40pt (25, 15, DNF)
3. Ferrari - 40pt (18, 12, 10)
4= Williams - 30pt (DNF, 18, 12)
4= Force India - 30pt (12, DNF, 18)
6= Toro Rosso - 15pt (15, DNF, DNF)
6= Red Bull - 15pt (DNF, DNF, 15)*
8= Sauber - 10pt (10, DNF, DNF)
8= Caterham - 10pt (DNF, 10, DNF)
10. Lotus - 8pt (DNF, DNF, 8)
11. Marussia - 6pt (DNF, DNF, 6)
*Pending Ricciardo appeal for Australian Grand Prix
No non-scorers, only one team with a perfect finishing record - the Ferrari may not be fast, but it's reliable and on the podium for it - and the established order of the last four years has all gone to pot. That said, the top 5 teams are occupying the top five spots (with the exception of Red Bull) and the bottom 5 teams are occupying the bottom five (with the exception of Williams), so there's a semblence of sanity still...
