Guenther Steiner Criticises FIA’s Handling Of Verstappen's Swearing Incident
Former Haas Team Principal: Reigning Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen had been reprimanded by the FIA for using inappropriate language ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix. Former Haas Team Principal, Guenther Steiner has spoken out against the FIA, claiming they were in the wrong and did not have to make a "big story" out of it.
"The best way [to handle it] would have been not to make a big story of it. Sit down with the drivers, they have a meeting every weekend, and say: 'Hey, guys, can you tone it down a little bit? We are the FIA, we don't really like this.'
"But don't say: 'If you do, you get a fine, a penalty, whatever.' Because you know these guys, they've got an ego as well. And they say: 'I don't want to do that.' And then what do you create? All this controversy - for nothing," Steiner said to BBC.
