Further disqualification Since last December, Oliver Bearman has been experiencing the scheduled GPs with bated breath due to an error on the track that could cost him dearly: more than the final result, the Haas Englishman is concretely close to the risk of a disqualification for a race, thanks to the 10 penalty points accumulated on his FIA Superlicence from May to December 2025. According to the regulations, in fact, if a driver were to reach or exceed a total of 12 points, he would suffer automatic exclusion from the starting grid on the following race weekend. For Bearman, as in previous weekends, a more or less serious penalty would therefore be enough to get close to the ban, with his return to the track expected once the disqualification has been served. The return to zero However, on the occasion of the Canadian GP, the #87’s situation could weaken. If the Briton were not to suffer sanctions on Friday and Saturday, Bearman would go from 10 to 8 points, thus decreasing the risk of a concrete exclusion. Furthermore, from 23 May to 7 December, the points will scale further until they are completely cancelled. Since this regulation was introduced, only one driver has reached 12: the case also occurred in Haas, when Kevin Magnussen was forced to miss the Azerbaijan GP after the maximum points achieved the previous weekend in Monza. By pure chance, it was Bearman who replaced him, making his debut as a starting driver for Haas after his debut with Ferrari that year in Saudi Arabia to replace Carlos Sainz.
