Piqué was pulled over by police in the L’Eixample area of Barcelona last August and subsequently found to have lost the 12 points on his licence that Spanish drivers are given when they gain their permission to drive. When those points have expired, for offences such as speeding, using a mobile phone while at the wheel or parking infractions, a driver is automatically banned for a period of time and must undergo a series of educational courses to regain their licence.

Piqué accepted the fine in a Barcelona court on Monday and will now have to wait to learn what conditions he faces to regain his permission to drive.
