The FIA hit the Red Bull star and four-time world champion with a 10-second penalty in the race, followed by three penalty points on his super license. That means Verstappen enters the Canadian Grand Prix with 11 points total on his super license in total. F1's rules dictate 12 penalty points in a 12-month period trigger a one-race suspension.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner believes the team is well-equipped to cope in the event Max Verstappen teeters over the edge with an extra penalty point at the Canadian Grand Prix
