MAX has added that the rules are unclear and ''over-regulated''.

Dutch passport appears to be causing bias with Brit stewards.

Stewards.
Herbert: Brit ex-F1 driver.

The FIA president , Mohammed Ben Sulayem s@cks as usual (!)

The FIA knows very well that Herbert is partial towards the McLaren Team.
And still...The FIA put him in service (again)! for the Brazilian GP while they know It's MAX vs Lando for the rest of this season..

The FIA really s@cks and Herbert is a piece of Papaya 5H1T .

On the other hand : We MAX fans fully agree that MAX mowed too much grass in Mexico....

FIA steward Johnny Herbert saying questionable things - as FIA steward - in the press about Verstappen.

As an FIA steward he should know better: stick to assessing the incidents in an impartial way and refrain from making statements in the press that could jeopardize your impartiality and integrity as an FIA steward. He's talking here as an FIA steward, not as a journalist or social media influencer. Leave any arbitrary psycho-analysis of a driver's alleged mindset out of the equation and definitely don't pontify your questionable theory as fact (or as very likely) in the press. Apparently not the sharpest tool in the shed. Engage brain before speech.

Loïc Bacquelaine (FIA steward and lawyer) should lecture him about impartiality and discretion.

A passport seriously?!...for being the reason for any bias is WILD. Are we going back to primeval times?

Loïc Bacquelaine was one of the four FIA stewards in Mexico. He's Belgian. Apart from the Dutch nationality, Verstappen also has the Belgian nationality. So one of the FIA stewards in Mexico had the same nationality as Verstappen: the nationality argument can be debunked (apart from being ludicrous anyway).

Based on the recent statements by FIA steward Johnny Herbert, it rather seems that Herbert is bothered by Verstappen in F1, regardless of his nationality: community service penalty in Singapore because of "the car was f**ked" statement, 10 seconds time penalty and 2 points in Mexico and another 10 seconds time penalty and 2 points in Mexico.

None of us over here is an FIA steward, so we're free to speak our minds.

That is so but in a trial by jury, hypothetically if there would be a 3-1 majority then the decision of the 3 would be passed. I have served on a jury myself and was bullied by the jury 'foreman' into agreeing with him and some of the others but I stood my ground.
As far as the f word is concerned then I agree it has ''rattled'' Herbert into watching MAX like a hawk (ignoring that a lot of people swear) and strangely being put on the stewards seemingly continuously now. Let's remember MAX wasn't swearing at anybody but the car set up itself and I won't bring LeClerc's swearing (that remains unpunished ) into the subject.

It's been just a few days since the MGP and I'm sure it's the media doing what they're good at with sensationalising.

If Verstappen says that the paddock is British orientated, I don't think he means the stewards alone but the paddock as a whole. Including journalists, who do their fair share creating this negative narrative.

British bias? YEP, as an American I see it!!!!!
