Max Verstappen says constant questions about his overhanging race-ban threat are "very childish" and "p****** me off" after sealing second in Canadian Grand Prix qualifying.

Verstappen has hit out at repeated questions about his F1 race ban threat after 2025 Canadian Grand Prix qualifying.

The FIA hit the Red Bull star and four-time world champion with a 10-second penalty in the race, followed by three penalty points on his super license. That means Verstappen enters the Canadian Grand Prix with 11 points total on his super license in total. F1's rules dictate 12 penalty points in a 12-month period trigger a one-race suspension.

The Spanish Grand Prix stewards declared the late-race crash was ‘undoubtedly caused’ by Verstappen, while Russell labelled it “deliberate”. Verstappen was initially defiant, before conceding in the cold light of Monday morning that his move was “not right”.
