The F1 penalty points system was first introduced to keep the driving standards above a certain threshold. It was introduced in 2014, where points were given on the basis of driver transgressions.

These transgressions could be anything from dangerous driving, causing a collision, pushing a driver off track, etc. Kevin Magnussen became the first driver to face a race ban under this system.

The Danish driver had accumulated as many as 12 F1 penalty points in the last 12 months and hence had to miss the race in Baku. As we head to the race in Singapore, how do the drivers stack up in terms of F1 penalty points? Let's take a look.
