Max Verstappen is on the verge of a race ban after picking up too
many penalty points, currently sitting on 11. Drivers are allowed
to pick up 12 points in a 12-month period, with an automatic
one-race ban being triggered once 12 points are met, with Kevin
Magnussen becoming the first driver banned under the system in
2024, missing the Azerbaijan GP. Verstappen and Fernando Alonso
entered the season on eight penalty points on their super-licence,
although Alonso lost a set of three points the day after round two
in China, and a further three points on April 20th, leaving him on
just a pair. As for Verstappen, he has made it to the Austrian GP
without a ban, despite moving to 11 points following his Spanish GP
collision with George Russell. On June 30th, 2025, he will lose
two penalty points, but still only drop to nine. 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.
