Verstappen to Serve Community Service in Rwanda

Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen will undertake community service in Rwanda as a penalty for swearing during a press conference at the Singapore Grand Prix. The FIA confirmed that Verstappen will work with junior racing drivers as part of a grassroots development program organized by the Rwanda Automobile Club. This initiative includes activities with an FIA Affordable Cross Car, which was built locally in Rwanda. The punishment follows Verstappen's expression of frustration with his car, using inappropriate language. The FIA President has emphasized the need for professionalism in language use within motorsport. Verstappen will fulfill this obligation while attending the FIA Awards Ceremony in Kigali to collect his fourth consecutive championship trophy.
