Let me start by saying that I absolutely admire Max's driving prowess. I think he might be the GOAT. With that said, I've always found him to be a prickly, surly a-hole. The linked article quotes Max saying that he'll likely retire earlier than he initially projected because he has to follow the no profanity rules. How obtuse can a man be? F1 wants to appeal to families who often have young children and don't want those children exposed to profanity. Personally, I'm former Navy, so I swear, well, like a sailor, but not when children are present or when it's generally not appropriate. Maybe try lobbying the FIA for rule changes instead of being a whiny quitter.
