Williams The team’s principal James Walls believes that the recent boohing and swearing in Formula 1 will not grow with controversies, but believe that there is no place to smell in the championship.
Earlier this month, BOOS was heard at the launch event of the 75th anniversary of F1 in O2 Arena, London, which was aimed at the reign champion. Max VerustapaneFIA, and Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner.
It led the FIA, which has come under the fire for its militant approach, in which the language of dishonesty is stamped with heavy punishment on drivers, In attendance mainly for blaming the British audience for ‘tribalism’,
Walls felt that the booung experienced at the O2 event was unnecessary and the F1 should not have a place, but the F1 and other teams were eager to “launch” for the presentations of launch in front of the crowd for “launch”.
“I am not worried that it will overshadow because I think we have such a strong product,” Walls started. “Let’s start with O2. I was uncertain how this incident would happen, but I think it was absolutely luxurious and did the game justice.
“I don’t think there is no place for boohing. We were there to represent our game effectively, about which we are emotional. And we need to remember that it is trying to give back to the world. It is not a hero-elevated type of environment.
“There are always areas where we are fighting each other, it is in politics, FIA or Formula 1. It is a common element.”

The current swearing -in dispute has been expanded and offered its own, stating that he felt that the driver should eventually be admitted in high -two -two situations – saying: “I have already said that a driver is already in the car, which is in this room, you will not be proud of this room.
By adding it, he said to the press conference situations that it was unnecessary and the FIA should “take a lens on what is happening at different points.”
Wolf agreed with Williams’s boss, surprising on the amount of boouting on O2. He appeared refuting the FIA’s stance on tribalism, saying “there was really no boo on Max” and “this is his home and still Christian has got this boon” – but agreed that it should not be a part of F1.
Austrian wanted the F1’s driver to adopt an approach like rugby when it comes to the choice of language, which he explained that “sophisticated and no one would never call an officer a word”. However, he unanimously echoed about the swearing in while on the track.
“I don’t think we should take an oath about the authorities. It is to ensure that the FIA also needs to protect it. It is clear. For me, it is about respect, it is about respect, about the honor of your rivals, about the honor of the authorities, to incite anyone, whether it is your own people or whether it is an adverse competitive that is on track.
“This makes a big difference whether you use F-word in terms of your own driving or out of emotion, such as James said, because I am using it if I am angry.
“But when it is directed to another driver in the car, an officer or your team, I think it is what we need to ban. And in our opinion, we need to create a difference between these two.
“We do not want to mute drivers and their feelings. If we are in a press conference, if we are being interviewed, it’s a completely different set. But in the car, until it is not a provocative and until it is derogatory to someone else, I will just let it go.”

Opinion: Swara and Volf provide level-headed opinions in the sea of resentment
The principal of the team shakes the pot on the occasion, they are eventually in their roles of taking care of thousands of people for a simple reason: Gallon’s greatest captains on the wheel need wise captains.
Their general knowledge is the scene – from the point of view of this author, at least. Some people may argue that Boo, part of the game, will argue that it does not really need to be. F1 is not a “we versus them”, but a celebration of 20 of the best drivers in the world is doing a thing that can only dream us to dream. Tribalism creeping in F1 is like wandering in Tesco in a decoration dress and feeling just as if he asked if you asked if you are in possession of a clubcard. For non -UK readers, simply replace the example with two supermarket chains appropriately – Albert Heines and Jumbo, for example, if you are from the Netherlands.
The entire swearing in seems foolish. The swearing-in in official media sessions or on officials should be completed with punitive measures, but it seems that a line has been wisely drawn when the Formula E’s Dan Tiktam survived the punishment on the radio during the Jeddah e-Pix weekend. Nor should he be punished for him.
The FIA has not helped necessary with lack of clarity on the ruling. Just pull the line clearly, ask the drivers to be sensible, and leave it there. During the moments of the quarters struggling with George Russell, there can be a self-sensor with asymmetrical “criski”, but not everyone is blessed with the same mental thesaurus of the old-time phrases …
