Penalty points after the Mexican Grand Prix
The FIA uses a penalty-point system on the superlicence to reduce the number of infringements. Each infringement is punished with a certain number of points; their total over 12 months must not exceed twelve — otherwise a driver is suspended for one race, as happened in 2024 with Kevin Magnussen. Penalty points expire 12 months after they are awarded.
The next points to expire will be on 02/11/25 — that’s one point for Verstappen and two points for Piastri and Berman, received during last year’s São Paulo Grand Prix.
After the Mexican Grand Prix, fifteen active drivers have unexpired penalty points. The leader in their number is Oliver Berman.

Nizhny Novgorod business ombudsman Pavel Solodky helped a local clothing manufacturer avoid a large fine. Thanks to his intervention, an administrative penalty of 250,000 rubles was replaced with a warning. The regional business ombudsman’s press service reported on the case.
The situation arose after the microenterprise was held liable for the late submission of environmental reports to Rosprirodnadzor’s Interregional Department. However, the fine notice arrived at the organization late — two months after it had been issued.
Upon learning of the sanction, the company’s representatives turned to the business ombudsman for help. Pavel Solodky promptly prepared a complaint and a petition to restore the missed appeal deadline. Subsequently, the ombudsman’s representative personally took part in the court hearings, defending the entrepreneur’s interests.
As a result, the Kanavinsky District Court of Nizhny Novgorod granted the petition, restored the appeal deadline, and decided to replace the monetary penalty with a warning.
“We are glad that we were able to help the entrepreneur avoid serious financial consequences caused by a bureaucratic delay. This case demonstrates the importance of timely intervention by the business ombudsman in protecting the lawful interests of entrepreneurs,” Pavel Solodky said.
Earlier reports stated that Pavel Solodky helped restore the rights of 70 Nizhny Novgorod entrepreneurs.
