Max Verstappen says the fallout from the swearing row at last month’s Singapore Grand Prix remains unresolved, with F1’s drivers set to issue a collective stance on the matter within the next week.
F1’s world champion also implied he would continue to limit his answers in official FIA press conferences at this weekend’s United States Grand Prix.
Verstappen was handed F1’s equivalent of community service at the last race four weeks ago after he used an expletive in the Thursday press conference to describe his Red Bull car’s performance at the previous event.
The punishment came after FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem had said in an interview, which was published earlier on the same day, that he wanted to see less driver swearing broadcast on F1’s global TV feed, and that the sport’s stars had a responsibility to mind their language
