After accruing more penalty points than is allowed in a calendar year, Haas driver Kevin Magnussen will miss the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Following a collision with Pierre Gasly of Alpine during the Italian Grand Prix, the Dane was awarded a 10-second penalty and two penalty points on his license. That brought his yearly total of points to 12, which is automatically punishable by a racing ban according to the rules. Haas has not announced who would take Magnussen’s spot for the race in Baku on September 13–15. They have signed British racer Oliver Bearman for 2025, and reserve driver Pietro Fittipaldi is one of their choices.
