Martin Brundle has questioned why the Grand Prix Drivers Association did not target more important issues in their state🐽ment to the FIA.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell, the hea𒁏d of the GDPA, revealed in Las Vegas the gove𒅌rning body of Formula 1 have not responded to their gripes.

The GDPA had created a new Instagram account to criticise the FIA’s hardline stance 𒅌on swearing, which had seen Max Verstappen hit with a community service punishment.

“I was a bit surღprised with the GDPA thing going on𓂃 Instagram, and that they didn’t ask more about professional stewards or drivers’ guidelines, rather than underpants and jewellery,” Sky Sports’ Brundle said.

“Clearly the FIA is dysfunctional at the moment.

“The revolving door of senior personnel is extreme. They haven’t got time to sort themselves out, it seems to me, let alone talk to🐽 the drivers.

“It’s always been the case. The current iteration of th⛦e GDPA, I started w🦋ith Michael Schumacher and Gerhard Berger. I was the chairman in 1994.

“The drivers have always tried to get an accord.

“T🐠he stakeholders, the owners and F1 don’t really want the drivers to have a voice.”

The FIA has been plu🍸nged into further controversy with the rౠemoval of race director Niels Wittich with three rounds of the season remaining.

Wittich has claimed he was push🌠ed out, and Verstappen admitted his shock.

Brundle said: “It’s very difficult to rationalise. Niel𝄹s said he was fired. He fully expected to b🎉e here.”

He continued: “Clearly [the drivers] are miffed♐, and I don’t blame them, for reading on social media ꦬthat the race director has changed with three to go. It makes no sense at all.

“Drivers have always tried to have a union. But they can be a dispaﷺrate bunch, because it’s such a transient group of people, even this season.”

Jenson Button♓ added: “It’s good that they are outspoken, and all on the same page.”

Danica Patrick said: “I don’t th💟ink that, whenever an organisation tries to be bigger than the talent within, it ever works out.

“You have𝓡 to work with them. These are your gladiators. They’re the ones risking their lives.

“Niels is ultimately the one who helps🅘 them keep safe.

“Any time it feels like yo✨ur voice isn’t heard, when you’re playing such a big role in the sport, it just doesn’t sit ♍well.”
