F1 penalty points: One driver has points added and takes unwanted P1 from Pierre Gasly

Cars line up on F1 starting grid for practice starts

Lance Stroll had quite the battle with Pierre Gasly during the British Grand Prix, with race-ending damage and penalties part of the fallout.

Stroll had escaped punishment from the stewards when passing Gasly at Stowe, despite seemingly completing that move while off the track, but the attempted retaliation from Gasly through the Vale chicane landed Stroll in hot water.

Stroll was given a five-second penalty for this second and final stage of the Gasly squabble, with Gasly forced to retire his Alpine as a result of the damage caused.

On top of the time penalty, Stroll also saw two penalty points added to his super licence, which thanks to a trio having just dropped off Gasly’s licence, incurred at the 2022 Austrian GP, means Stroll has now surpassed him as the driver at the top of this list.

Formula 1’s penalty points system is in place to keep driver behaviour under control, in the same way as regular road users, with 12 points on their FIA super licence over a 12-month period resulting in a one-race ban.

Penalty points are issued for driver transgressions, with the amount varying depending on the severity of the incident and, once a year has passed since that particular offence, their points get wiped, meaning they have to be careful to avoid crossing that fateful 12-point threshold.

Several drivers continue their angelic run with completely clean licences. These include Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton, as well as two of the three rookie drivers in Logan Sargeant and Oscar Piastri.
