Ah yes. That classic bogeyman of F1. Any time someone gets criticised for anything, just blame the British press. Be it when Alonso does a move the stewards doesn't like, Max getting booed at Brazil in '21, etc...

As if most of the complaining about this clown doesn't come from people directly in F1. E.g. Max, Lewis, and others calling his swearing ban nonsense.

If anything the press, British or not, has been frustratingly quiet on this. But I guess that's because they're naturally on the side of advertisers, who also want no swearing or personality in sport.
