Bearman Moves Closer to a Race Ban
Oliver Bearman has accumulated 10 penalty points over 12 months, including a collision with Carlos Sainz at Monza, putting him two points away from an automatic one-race ban.
- During the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, the stewards penalised Haas F1 driver Oliver Bearman with a 10-second race penalty and two licence points for causing a collision with Carlos Sainz, bringing him to 10 points and two away from a one-race ban.
- Having accumulated earlier sanctions, including four points at the Silverstone British GP and two at the Monaco Grand Prix, Oliver Bearman has no points expiring until November 2, leaving four races to avoid a ban.
- The stewards said after reviewing footage that Carlos Sainz was ahead at the apex, granting the racing line, while Oliver Bearman defended inside and received a 10-second penalty plus two licence points.
- His situation raises immediate stakes for Haas, as a driver reaching 12 points, like Kevin Magnussen last year, faces a race ban and may be replaced by Ryo Hirakawa across the next four rounds.
- Critics warned F1 racing guidelines can be too specific or vague and rigidly policed, creating a glaring hole over room drivers must leave, fueling debate at Monza chicanes.
