Mike Hawthorn wins the World Championship (42 pts) for Ferrari, the first British champion, with just one win
Stirling Moss P2 (41 pts) won four races but lost by a point. At Porto he had spoken up for Hawthorn, who kept a second place that stewards had threatened to take away
Tony Brooks P3 (24 pts) with three wins for Vanwall
Vanwall win the first Constructors' Cup (48 pts to Ferrari's 40)
Moss's Argentine win in Rob Walker's Cooper was the first World Championship win for a rear-engined car

Scoring Notes for 1958

One-off rulings, race-day anomalies, and data quirks that affect how points are awarded this season.

[Season] Fastest-lap point and the Constructors' Cup: Drivers scored a point for fastest lap wherever they finished, even after retiring. The first Constructors' Cup counted only each team's best-placed car, without the fastest-lap point.
[Race] Indianapolis 500 — drivers only: The Indy 500 (round 4) counted towards the Drivers' Championship, so Jimmy Bryan's win is in the drivers' standings, but not the Constructors' Cup, so its roadster teams score nothing in the team table. Its 33-car field is shown only as deep as the Grand Prix grid; nobody below the points finished high enough to score.
[Race] German GP — Formula 2 class: Bruce McLaren finished 5th overall in a Formula 2 Cooper, which was not eligible for championship points, so his 5th scores nothing.
[Race] Italian GP — shared car: Carroll Shelby and Masten Gregory shared the Maserati that finished 4th. From 1958 a shared drive scored no points, so neither scores. The grid shows the first driver only (Brooks and Lewis-Evans also shared a Vanwall at the French GP, outside the points).
