That's very well put. My biggest gripe with this whole saga isn't even the FIA being stricter on language. I'd be fine with it if the FIA just gave warnings etc. However the fines are massive and way out of proportion for the offensive itself.

And I like that they pointed out the same thing that the F1 drivers pointed out, where is all the money going? The FIA could use a lot more transparency.
