Verstappen has hit out at repeated questions about his F1 race ban threat after 2025 Canadian Grand Prix qualifying.

Verstappen was handed a 10-second time penalty and three penalty points for driving into Mercedes' George Russell in the final stages of the Spanish Grand Prix, which brings his total over the past 12 months up to 11, with 12 leading to an automatic one race ban. Only after the Austria race will he start losing points again to diminish that threat.

Max Verstappen arrived at the Canadian Grand Prix a single point away from a one-race suspension following his collision with George Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix.
