New regulations in the off-season could see drivers issued a race ban if they swear repeatedly
Max Verstappen responded to F1's new swearing rules with the phrase "I prefer not to speak," referencing Jose Mourinho. He has previously faced punishment for foul language, including community service. At the F1 75 Live event, he elaborated that reactions to the rules speak for themselves. He did not address the crowd during the new car unveiling. Verstappen is focused on winning a fifth consecutive title and moving past his conflict with George Russell. His new teammate for 2025 is Liam Lawson.
