Bearman Two Points From F1 Ban as 2026 Penalty Totals Updated

Expiry timing keeps his 10 points live through the first six race weekends.

Overview

  • The Race published a driver-by-driver 2026 super licence tally with reasons and exact expiry dates for each point.
  • Lance Stroll and Liam Lawson begin 2026 on six points each, with Kimi Antonelli next on five.
  • Bearman’s total stems chiefly from overtaking under red flags in Monaco, a pit-lane crash under red flags at Silverstone, and a Monza collision.
  • Max Verstappen peaked at 11 points in 2025 after contact with George Russell but avoided suspension when older 2024 points expired.
  • Valtteri Bottas is listed on zero for 2026 yet must serve a five-place grid penalty for Cadillac’s season opener due to a 2024 Abu Dhabi infraction.
