The F1 stewards were busy during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with six drivers, including Max Verstappen picking up penalties.
Verstappen was pinged for colliding with Oscar Piastri on lap 1, earning a 10-second time penalty and two penalty points on his super-licence, taking him to eight for the 12-month period.
He is at risk of a race ban, with his next set of points not due to come off until after the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix in June.
Elsewhere, as the table below shows, Valtteri Bottas picked up a grid penalty he is currently set to never serve as he will not be on the 2025 grid...
