Mercedes driver George Russell defended suspended FIA steward Derek Warwick’s right to speak to the media and believed that anything more than a one-race ban for his comments would have been excessive. Warwick was temporarily relieved of his duties for the Canadian Grand Prix after making controversial media interviews. The 70-year-old, who has four grand prix podiums, was removed as a steward for the event. Warwick’s statements about current drivers and incidents like Max Verstappen’s crash at the Spanish Grand Prix led to his suspension. Russell supported Warwick’s reinstatement, emphasizing the scrutiny every word receives in the sport. The FIA’s decision on Warwick’s suspension and subsequent return for the Austrian Grand Prix were mentioned, contrasting the case with Johnny Herbert’s permanent removal for similar issues.
