The F1 penalty points system has been in place since 2014. It was brought in because the sport did not have a definitive system in place where driver transgressions were keenly observed.

There was no data as such that was used to measure how drivers had performed during a particular event. With the driving standards seeing a decline in the early 2010s, the system was introduced in 2014 to help keep the driving standards in check.

The race weekend in Monaco is the perfect example of how the system is important. Lance Stroll picked up a penalty twice during the weekend. Lewis Hamilton did the same in qualifying, and George Russell also did it in the race. As the weekend draws to a close, where do the drivers stand in terms of penalty points that they have accrued? Let's take a look.

Ollie Bearman now has 4 F1 penalty points to his name.

Kimi Antonelli has three F1 penalty points on his superlicense.

The seven-time F1 champion was issued a penalty point for his incident with Franco Colapinto. He's now at 3 points.

Alex Albon has three F1 penalty points on his license.

Lance Stroll is currently at three F1 penalty points on his license.
