Penalty points before the Belgian Grand Prix
The FIA uses a system of penalty points for the superlicense to reduce the number of violations. Each violation is penalized with a certain number of points, and their total over 12 months must not exceed twelve — otherwise, the driver is disqualified for one race, as happened in 2024 with Kevin Magnussen. Penalty points expire after 12 months from their issuance.
Next time, penalty points will expire on September 1 — thisincludes two points for Hulkenberg received during last year's Italian Grand Prix.
Before the Belgian Grand Prix, thirteen drivers have unexpired penalty points. The leader in this regard is Max Verstappen.
