Hamilton and Russell Blast FIA President’s swearing-in ban U-turn

Lewis Hamilton The FIA ​​has joined the decision to bring back the decision of the President of the FIA ​​on his swearing -in – saying that the entire “ridiculous” position is “a mess”.

During this time, George Russell Said that the plans to climb their previous stance on drivers who punished Mohammad Ben Sulem’s plans seemed to be “all slightly suspicious”.

It comes after a revised penalty for drivers for swearing in the governing body of Formula 1, FIA, a backlash.

Under the original schemes, F1 drivers may be fined € 40,000 (£ 33,700) for the first crime, and may be doubled – as well as restrictions for another crime. However, it has now been reduced to € 5,000 (£ 4,200), while the risk of restrictions has been lifted.

Asked about the decision to move forward from Hamilton Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix And said: “It is ridiculous. I really don’t know. Nothing I say that it will make any difference. It seems a mess there at this time.

“There are a lot of changes that are required, of course. But it really doesn’t affect me. I don’t see what has happened since then.”

Meanwhile, Russell, a director of the Grand Prix Drivers Association, said: “We are talking about a situation where things are returned because it was a bit attractive in the first place.

“Definitely we are happy to see that it (has been changed), but it should never be in the first place, if it makes sense.

“So thanks to the changes (FIA), it seems a bit wrong when we should not have been at that place to start.

“We still have no correspondence with anyone from the senior level in the FIA. So yes, it is all a little suspicious.”

Russell was asked why he felt that drivers were not directly talked about by Ben Sulem.

He said: “This is a good question. It seems more challenging than really happening, but we all have put forward our thoughts.

“I wouldn’t say that it has reached one point without a return, but you want to see at least from another party.

“I think we think we have put forward our thoughts, and we want to interact and communicate, and only you can ask.”
