There is prize money that is given at the end of the year that depends on the Constructor standings.

The prize money in 2007 was about this:
1st – USD80,000,000
2nd – USD74,000,000
3rd – USD67,000,000
4th – USD60,000,000

5th – USD48,000,000
6th – USD46,000,000
7th – USD44,000,000
8th – USD42,000,000
9th – USD39,000,000
10th –USD37,000,000

Then, there is also all the sponsorship money that comes in. Which could easily match the amount of the prize money.

Also, Ferrari gets an extra cut from the F1 pool simply because they are Ferrari.
