Carlos Sainz learns his fate from FIA after swearing in a press conference
Carlos Sainz risked FIA wrath by swearing

The FIA have made their judgement on 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz after he swore in a press conferen𒊎ce on Thursday.
The Williams F1 driver has escaped a punishment, which could have been a €40,000 ($45,370) fine, report𓆉.
The FIA opted not to refer Sainz to the stewards at the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix for his languag꧑e.
“Carlos was ♛very apologetic and admitted that the languag🐬e he used was not right,” an FIA spokesperson was quoted by the .
“He said he 𝓡would make amends. He has not been꧙ referred to the stewards.”
Carlos Sainz escapes another FIA fine
The reason for Sainz’s bad༺ language in a press conference before the Bahrain Grand Prix was to complain about a fine he received a week🦄 ago for another misdemeanor.
Sainz was ꦇhit in the pocket for✅ €20,000 (half of which was suspended) at the Japanese Grand Prix for being late to the national anthem.
He insisted he was late due to a “stomach issue”, which the FIA took int🅠o account to lower his fine from €60,000.
But 168澳洲5🧸最新开奖结果:Sainz raged in Bahrain several days later: “To be five seconds late and h✅ave to pay €10,000 is for me out of the question.”
He added, crucially: “S*** happens.”
That word contravenes the FIA’s clampdown on language used by drivers in official p𝐆ress c༺onferences.
Maꦗx Verstappen was notably punished with a community service after swearing last year.
However, Sainz found support from Georg▨e Russell, the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association director.
Russell called it an “168澳洲5最新开奖结果:expensive poo” for Sainz.
Russell also made it🍃 clear that the severity of the punishment did not fit Sainz’s crime.
Several days later, S✱ainz has at least avoided another expensive hit.
