Charles Leclerc should not face punishment for saying the F-word in an FIA press conference at the Mexico City Grand Prix, says a majority of F1 fans polled by RacingNews365.
Charles Leclerc may potentially face retribution from the FIA for his slip of the tongue during the press conference after the Mexico City Grand Prix, where he accidentally used the F-word. Despite not being penalized by the governing body yet, a majority of F1 fans in a recent poll feel that penalizing the Ferrari driver would be too harsh, considering it was unintentional. Amidst describing his moment of losing second place due to oversteer, he uttered the expletive, prompting surprise reactions from the media and a quick apology from Leclerc. Swearing in official FIA press conferences has sparked debate in F1, especially after Max Verstappen received community service for a similar offense in the past. The fans are divided, with almost 60% against punishing Leclerc and just over 40% advocating for consistency with how Verstappen was treated.
