Tsitsipas Linked to 210 km/h Athens Speeding Case as Lawyer Says He Was Not Driving

The digital penalty was issued through Greece’s new smart‑camera system, with his counsel saying the late‑September incident and license surrender have already been handled.

Overview

  • Greek reports said a vehicle associated with Stefanos Tsitsipas was recorded at 210 km/h in a 120 km/h zone on the Attiki Odos expressway.
  • Initial coverage cited a €2,000 fine and a one‑year driver’s license suspension tied to the violation.
  • Lawyer Thanasis Papathanasiou stated the car was driven by a third person, not Tsitsipas, and that both the fine and the license surrender were addressed.
  • The attorney also indicated the episode occurred in late September rather than in recent days.
  • Outlets noted the sanction was delivered via gov.gr after detection by newly deployed smart cameras on major Greek roads.
