Max Verstappen has been advised to stop “wasting energy” protesting against his 🅠swearing reprimand by Nico Rosberg.

Verstappen got into trouble at last weekend’s F1 Singapor🉐e Grand Prix forꦗ describing his Red Bull as “f******” in the pre-event press conference.

🌳He received a community service order as a punishment from the FIA for his foul language, and has made his displeasure obvious.

Rosberg told Sky Sports: “There’s two sides. On one side, my kids are watc𓃲hing.

“On t𒁃he other hand, we want them to be gl𝐆adiators and show their emotions.

“Either ꦑway, bleep it out and let them show their emotions🍌. It’s important for all of us watching.

“If I🙈 was in Max’s position, it would not be ꧑so good because he is wasting his energy on this.

“He needs full focus. He is 🌟fighting for the world championship at the moment.

“It’s not so great that he’s dealing wit🍃ꦇh it so much.”

Verstappen made his feelings known with a number of 🎀protests in Singapore.

At his next press conference after qualifying, he answered only briefly before pretending that ಞa problem with his voice was prohib🌱iting him from speaking.

Verstappen also took to speaking🐼 to journalists away from the official press conference in more depth.

Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton then came to Verstappen’s aid by disagreeing wit𓂃h the reprimand th🐷at came his way.

Hamilton desಌcribed the punishment as “a joke” and urged Verstappen not to comply.

The off-track shenanigans𓂃 remain only part of his headache at the moment, 🍬though.

As Rosberg warned, Verstappen is locked in a battle to reta🔯in the F1ꦅ title.

Norris’ run of form hasꦯ cut Verstappen’s lead to 52 points at the top of the standings.

Verstappen will be champion for a fourth year in a row if he finishes as runner-up, behind Norris, at eve❀ry grand prix and sprint until the end of the season.
