During the weekend of the Miami Grand Prix, Haas F1 driver Kevin Magnussen set a regrettable record for the most penalties accrued in a single Formula 1 weekend
set a regrettable record for the most penalties accrued in a single Formula 1 weekend. This dubious achievement has brought him dangerously close to a race ban.
This series of infractions began during the Sprint race where Magnussen was penalized four times. This was for leaving the track and gaining an advantage on three occasions and was additionally criticized for continuously leaving the track without a valid reason. These infractions collectively added three points to his racing license and resulted in a punitive 35-second total time addition to his race time.
Speaking on the raft of penalties, Magnussen expressed a resigned acceptance of the stewards’ decisions. Despite his acceptance, Magnussen described a weekend tainted with tactical plays that ran contrary to his natural racing ethic, specifically strategies employed to protect his teammate, Nico Hulkenberg, and secure valuable constructor points for Haas.
