Expert Wurz reveals
Automatically saved draft
A penalty for Max Verstappen heats up tempers in Formula 1! The Red Bull superstar was punished by the FIA for using inappropriate language. "Nobody in the Whatsapp group thinks it's cool. Of course all the drivers are angry about it," says Alexander Wurz, President of the GPDA drivers' association.
What happened? At the press conference on Thursday, Max Verstappen was asked about his car, with which he had previously only finished fifth in Baku after numerous problems. "As soon as I went into qualifying, I knew the car was fucked," replied the 26-year-old. Too much of a good thing for the FIA! The subsequent verdict: Verstappen must do community service.
"... then he should sort it out with the team boss"
Which Wurz in turn finds "extraordinary", as he told motorsport-total.com. The ORF expert would have liked the President of the FIA, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, to seek a discussion with the drivers beforehand. According to the Austrian, the other drivers were also surprised by Verstappen's penalty
Wurz hopes that authenticity is not lost: "Personally, I'm not a fan of verbally attacking competitors. But if he complains about his car, then he should take it up with his team principal."
