The Stewards have issued formal warnings to the Team Principals of both Mercedes and Ferrari regarding their language in the FIA Press Conference on 16 November 2023.
What the fuck is “language not consistent with values defended by the FIA” supposed to mean? Are they revealing that there is some kind of rulebook to what people tell the media?
@guylacaptivite @formula1 They’re mad that people dared to criticize the Las Vegas GP…
What worries me is that there seems to be an actual clause in the sporting rules that allows the FIA to punish teams because of that.
they’re not. This is about swearing ( they both said “fucking”). Toto even defended the Las Vegas GP
If you don’t wanna get sweared at maybe don’t fuck up, cause millions of dollars of damage and then penalise the damaged team for your fuck up
What did they say?
Toto:
"You’re speaking about a fucking drain cover that’s been undone, that has happened before. That’s nothing. It’s FP1.”
Fred:
“We had a very tough FP1. This will cost us a fortune. We fucked up the session for Carlos. We won’t be part of the FP2 for sure.

Pretty minor stuff to get referred to FIA
FIA …fuck you. We are adults… it’s a car racing… not fucking Barbie kids show. FP1 was a fucking shitshow and deservingly called “Fucked up”. Don’t want to be called Fucked? Well don’t fuck up!. -someone probably.
Ridiculous
Fred is such a good swearer he should be given a pass on these tbh. What an absolute lad
FIA 🤡
