Explanation

Lewis Hamilton holds the record for the most penalty points in a single Formula 1 season, accumulating 9 penalty points on his licence during the 2013 season. The penalty point system was introduced in 2014, but Hamilton's numerous incidents that season set a benchmark. Penalties are given for driving infringements and accumulate over a 12-month period.
