The FIA should also be reminded that these racers are not TV presenters. For most of them English is a second language and it is not always easy to express themselves.

Even if English is your first language, it's not always easy to maintain your composure when talking about a topic you're emotionally invested in or under a lot of stress about. I would take a different stance about a driver that drops f bombs every other word, but this prudishness about occasional profanity is silly.
