He could just have said VER is 1,159 seconds quicker than you in one lap. The question is. Why did not he say that? :fire:

He was in the mood to be sarcastic, probably :laughing:

Statement from the GPDA (driver’s assosiation) directly to Mohammed Ben Sulayem :muscle: :muscle: :muscle:

It’s a really petty childish statement in my opinion which is ironic considering it says “Our members are Adults”

To then complain about not being able to swear on a public broadcast, which nobody is able to do on any other broadcast at the times F1 is shown is laughable

It’s a really unnecessary statement, because as for the rest of it as far as I’m aware all major sports also have a fines system

i think they mean ( and what i read out of that) is that the FIA is treating them like little children.
both cases (Max and Charles) were not intended to be rude ore swear on purpose

If the FIA wants swearing out of the interviews the can simply put a delay of 10 seconds on it in which they can beep the bad words away

and i think it is good to see where the fines are used for, a little transparance is welcome

Who is the drivers representative at GPDA now? Is it Max V? :slight_smile:

George Russel, Sebastian Vettel and Alexander Wurz

A little “threesome” of drivers. Increases the chance of the drivers being heard. Hopefully. :slight_smile:

Or the drivers can simply not swear? It’s not a FIA thing it’s a broadcast regulation or do you have casual swearing on your tv broadcast 24/7,
I can understand it if they are in the car and something happens on track but while they are doing an interview there is no need for it

if you look in both cases you will have to agree that no swearing was intended
it was just the way they (and many people)talk normally

and Günther Steiner was a master of that and never got fined

The swear words are not being directly censored. But the ugly words are being “removed” with some stipulated “dot, dot, dot, dots” over the words. Especially on the TV screen. And the producers are trying to “cut the sound” as best as they can. :slight_smile:

Depends where. Not a problem in most countries in Europe at all…

Not a problem at all in Germany and most European countries.

That’s great but the world is bigger then just Europe, it’s going to be an issue in more countries like the U.K and the USA for example then places it’s not, other sports manage it so why can’t F1?

Because it is stupid to censor these words in a sport made for adults? :upside_down_face:

This reply is honestly so silly I don’t even know how to even answer it
