The FIA have announced the F1 stewards’ penalty points verdict after an incident between Max Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli at the Austrian Grand Prix.
The weekend in the Styrian mountains ended in disaster for Red Bull at their home track with a last-place finish for Yuki Tsunoda and a DNF for Verstappen.
The reigning champion was involved in a lap-one incident with Antonelli, which saw both the Red Bull and Mercedes stars ruled out of the grand prix on Sunday.
The FIA have now announced the punishment verdict for the rookie driver, with the stewards handing Antonelli two penalty points and a drop of three grid positions.
However, because the 18-year-old was unable to continue the race in Austria, he will instead have to serve his grip drop at next weekend’s British GP.
