George Russell says the F1 drivers are 'a bit fed up' with the FIA after their public statement which called out its president Mohammed Ben Sulayem. After the last race in Brazil, the Grand Prix Drivers' Association , asked Ben Sulayem to 'consider his own tone and language' following the recent swearing row, where Max Verstappen was given F1's equivalent of community service for using an expletive during a press conference.
'I can only talk on behalf of myself here as opposed to any of the other drivers, but I think there's no secret that some were not happy with what was going on in terms of the decisions that were being made,' he added. 'But, at the end of the day, I think if you worked together with us, that we could have helped improve the matter. And I think sometimes just hiring and firing is not the solution. 'You kind of need to work together to improve the problem.
