Following an incident with Carlos Sainz during the Italian Grand Prix, Oliver Bearman is close to becoming the second driver to be hit with a Formula 1 race ban. The stewards concluded that Sainz’s Williams was ahead at the apex and therefore held the right to the corner. Bearman received two penalty points, putting him just two points away from a one-race ban. Bearman debuted with Haas last season in Baku, following Kevin Magnussen’s race ban. If Bearman receives a ban, Haas reserve driver Ryo Hirakawa is likely to take his place. Bearman was disappointed after the race, acknowledging the collision was a missed opportunity for a strong points finish.
