Max Verstappen explains track record as 'ludicrous' FIA criticised

Max Verstappen, or should we say 'Franz Hermann', was a lead talking point on media day ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, with the Dutchman having confirmed he set an unofficial Nordschleife track record. Elsewhere, the FIA adjusting the rules against swearing was discussed, as was the demotion of Jack Doohan at Alpine. Charles Leclerc missed media day through illness.
