The Belgian Grand Prix finally got underway yesterday after a lengthy delay, with Oscar Piastri emerging victorious and extending his lead over both Lando Norris and Max Verstappen. The race itself was relatively uneventful — a fact reflected in the post-race penalty report.

No drivers received penalty points on their licenses, meaning the standings remain unchanged in that regard. Max Verstappen still holds the highest number of penalty points, while several drivers continue to maintain a clean record.

Additionally, no penalty points are set to expire ahead of the next round in Hungary. The earliest expiry date falls on September 1, when Nico Hulkenberg could see his slate wiped clean — provided he avoids further infractions in the upcoming races.

Notably, Hulkenberg was the only driver placed under investigation during the Belgian GP, following a pit lane incident.
