As many as 11 penalty points were handed out during the Chinese Grand Prix, so how has this impacted the penalty point standings?
The FIA had a busy time at the Chinese Grand Prix last weekend due to multiple incidents, resulting in 11 penalty points being given out. These points stay on a driver’s license for a year, with a race ban looming if they accumulate 12 points within that timeframe. Despite the system being in place for a decade, no driver has surpassed the 12-point threshold until now. Fernando Alonso received a 10-second penalty and three points for an incident with Carlos Sainz. Other drivers like Daniel Ricciardo, Lance Stroll, Kevin Magnussen, and Logan Sargeant also received penalty points in China. Sergio Perez and Sargeant are the first ones at risk of facing a race ban due to accumulated penalty points. The full list of penalty points can be viewed below.
