Helmut Marko: Riders know what to say and how to say it

In Formula 1, they continue to discuss the updated FIA International Sports Code, which prohibits racers from publicly expressing their political views and making relevant statements in the context of competition without prior permission.

Red Bull motorsport adviser Helmut Marko is among those who do not support such an innovation.

Helmut Marko: “This is clearly a wrong ban. Racers understand the responsibility of being in the spotlight of the global community, and they know what and how to say it. We live in a democratic society and everyone is allowed to express their opinion.”

In addition, Marco comments on the information about the desire of Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund to buy back Formula 1 shares: “I don’t think it would be good if the control of the championship were in a country that is culturally different than those in which most races take place.

Of course we are talking about a commercial offer, but it is more likely that the deal will be made with someone who meets normal business standards, so to speak.
