Every F1 Driver with Penalty Points in 2025 – Ranked From Lowest to Highest

Since 2013, Formula One drivers have operated under a strict penalty points system introduced by the FIA to enforce discipline on track. Each infraction — whether it's causing a collision, ignoring flags, or driving dangerously — adds points to a driver’s license.

As of June 6, 2025, twelve drivers have active penalty points — and one of them is just a single point away from suspension.
