For €30,000 fine and in professional circumstances, yes, I would be clean spoken in the language I am fluent enough to understand. How many of you swear in professional circumstances? None, else tell me what happened. I know my company has codes of conduct including this topic.

Fourmaux had 24 hours to consider his words. Not discounting that there will be emotionally charged moments in this sport, but I think that excuse is overstated. There are 60 seconds between the stop line and speaking. 30 seconds between spotting the camera and speaking. 10 seconds between the reporter with microphone opening the door and speaking. There is now a rule in place, perhaps the co-driver can take on a role of coaching the driver as a professional exercise that happens 20 times per rally.

I don't want to make this a point but more of an open question, is it an English as a second language problem? I don't remember Elfyn Evans swearing or petulantly protesting being silenced. Did Craig Breen, Gus Greensmith?
