If a driver reaches 12 penalty points on their FIA Super License over a single calendar year period, they are hit with a one-race penalty ban. Last season Kevin Magnussen missed the Azerbaijan Grand Prix after accumulating enough penalty points to trigger the one-race ban at the previous race, the Italian Grand Prix.

Oscar Piastri has extended his title lead to 10 points after holding off Lando Norris for victory at a Spanish Grand Prix which was ultimately dominated by late Max Verstappen drama.
