Steiner's verdict on Verstappen's penalty
It is a well-known story by now.
Max Verstappen was given community service for swearing back at the
Singapore Grand Prix, a decision that caused backclash from drivers, pundits and fans alike.
Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner believes the FIA achieved the opposite of what they hoped for. "And do you think children don't listen to that rumours. And there's for sure a lot of children now who think it's actually cool to swear," he told
GPblog exclusively.
While
Oscar Piastri's 94-point gap behind Max Verstappen seems too difficult for the Australian to overcome this year, also talking exclusively to
GPblog, the
McLaren driver believes he is ready to fight for the title next season.
"Next year I feel like I'm ready. I've certainly still learned a lot of things through this year and there will still be a lot of things to learn next year," the McLaren driver said.
Ralf Schumacher doesn't think important figures leave because of Horner
Talking to
Formel1.de, former Formula One driver believes important figures of
Red Bull Racing, including
Adrian Newey, Jonathan Wheatley and most recently, Will Courtenay,
did not decide to join different teams because of the British team principal. The German, who was previously critical of Horner, thinks there was a different reason for these transfers.
"I think that's because when people work together for such a long time, they will eventually want to better their positions and sometimes they then get offers, finacially interesting offers, and then look for something new," Schumacher said.
