F1 2024: Max Verstappen protests punishment for swearing, Singapore Grand Prix, what happened, press conference , Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton defend Verstappen, F1 news Max Verstappen staged a one-man protest at the Singapore Grand Prix Saturday against his “ridiculous” punishment for swearing in an earlier session this week.
The Red Bull driver must “accomplish some work of public interest”, said a panel of FIA stewards, after using the F-word in Thursday’s drivers’ press conference which was being broadcast live. “I find it, of course, ridiculous what happened,” he said of his sanction. “So why should I then give full answers?
He later told Sky Sports F1: “It’s just ridiculous to get a penalty for that. When you insult someone, that’s pretty clear. I didn’t even aim it at a person. It’s a bit of a slip of the tongue moment.” “This is the pinnacle of the sport. Mistakes are made. I certainly won’t be doing it , and I hope Max doesn’t do it.”
