Fernando Gaviria has been given a two-month suspended sentence and a two-year driving ban after being caught drink driving in Monaco.
As reported in Monaco-Matin this week, the Colombian was stopped by police on 22 October for dangerous driving, after which they discovered he was five times over the limit. He appeared at the Monaco criminal court this week.
"You then showed signs of intoxication, and the police measured a blood alcohol level of 1.18 mg/l of exhaled air, or approximately 2.40 grams per litre of blood," Florestan Bellinzona, the presiding judge, said. The limit in Monaco is 0.25 mg/l of exhaled air. Best picks for you
