Lmao, almost made it through the response without swearing...

I agree though: It's just words, the drivers are under a lot of stress; so what if they swear a bit now and again.

I hope that the drivers all collectively make a pact to swear like crazy on the radio for the entire race. The FIA isn't gonna fine all the drivers millions all at once and the media will have a field day with it.

They did not expect him to give an actual answer before being rudely cut off as if to illustrate the absurdity of the policy.

At the very least, the host knew what he was doing. If not more people within the production crew. Keep in mind that the ban was created by FIA, not Liberty Media.

That's comedian Jack Whitehall, and I struggle to think of a presenter who'd be more in on the joke.

Comedian is stretching it a bit

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah, that's what I meant โ€” whoever wrote the joke expected the answer to start with "it's very fucking important" or the like.

Good for him.

Also, I thought I was watching the Oscars there for a minute. What a commercial shitshow Formula 1 has become. I am calling it now, this will be Max's last F1 season.
