Max Verstappen is on the verge of a race ban after picking up too
many penalty points, currently sitting on 9. Drivers are allowed to
pick up 12 points in 12 months, with an automatic one-race ban
being triggered once 12 points are reached, with Kevin Magnussen
becoming the first driver banned under the system introduced in
2014. Verstappen has made it to after the Austrian GP without a
ban, despite moving to 11 points following his Spanish GP collision
with George Russell. On June 30th, 2025, he lost two penalty
points, but still only dropped to nine, meaning he is a
Russell-esque incident away from a ban. The article below showing
how many F1 penalty points each 2025 driver has will be updated
after every grand prix in the season to reflect the latest
standings with points being added, or expired ones being removed.
