How many penalty points does Max has on his licence?

I know 3 are due to expire at minimum this year: that baffling 1 penalty point from Qatar preceeded by the 2 from Mexico

But I could swear he had 5 or so left? Or are the remaining ones due to expire early next season?

Edit: Got told in the comments it's actually still 9. 5 are expiring this year. The remaining 3 are for the Catalunya GP (likely driving erratically/causing a collision)

Max' final sector is so hot 🫠

Idk why people are panicking this much already?

Albert Park is an abstract circuit & yes a gravel trip is not ideal especially since there was damage. Battery can however be solved

The car looks as far as I can tell alright. Plus it might not even matter if some team's faster, there's an increased chance we'll see a 2015-esque domino effect or retirements

Edit: I don't think we have to worry about being fast. We have to worry if these cars can even finish sessions properly & that the guys don't crash because of car failure...

Lmao Max & Laurent's reaction to Arvid's decent lap 😝

Doomposters: The result isn't representative

He did no proper Medium run, the Soft lap was Traffic Paradise 🤷🏽‍♀️

Balance being so fine they can attack curbs, brakes working & the car is steering at the very least normally???

Chat is the car mayhaps working?

This is outside of me being a Papaya disliker: Their motorsound is a severe issue to me sensory wise

Red Bull sounds like a lawnmower (likely cuz Honda also sells industrial lawnmowers) with their brrp brrp brrp in the braking, I love it. Ferrari sounds like a Ferrari ofc. I like that

But McLaren... It sounds like constant whistle. Which I cannot listen to. It hurts inside of my ears

I have that issue as well with certain types of drops in hardstyle music

It's that Sector 2 that he is hyperstrong in
