Haas F1 boss Guenther Steiner summoned after criticism of “laymen” stewards at Spanish GP

Steiner and Haas team manager Peter Crolla are required to report to the stewards at 2.30pm local time (1.30pm UK) for an alleged breach of the sporting code during a mediꦑa session on Thursday in Barcelona.
The Italian said he wanted F1 to have a professional group of FIA stewards for every race after describing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg’s penalty at l𒊎ast weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix as “completely wrong”.
Hulkenberg earned a five-second penalty for an aggressive lunge on Williams driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant.
Speaking ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix, St𓆉einer aired his frustratꦦions at stewarding decisions and suggested a system overhaul.
“I t𝕴hink we have to just go back to [the question]: do we need a different system for stewards?” Steiner said.
“Every profession⛦al sport has got professionals being referees and stuff like this. F1 is one of the biggest sports in the world, and we still have laymen deciding on the fate of people who inꦬvest millions in their careers. And it's always a discussion because there's no consistency.
“I think we need to step it up. I think it's now time. 💦I think we're discussing this for years and years and we always go back to this.”
Steiner added: “Every other sport has pro🌃fessionals for this: American racing, NASCAR, IndyCar. How many times you hear problems with the stewards or with race director’🦹s decisions? Very rarely, very rarely. But they're doing it completely differently.
“There are full time people working there. I'm always saying: innocent until proven guilty. And not that I have to be prove that I was innoce🧸nt, because it doesn't work for me. That is not how I conduct life.”
The FIA said a decisioꦐn will not come before Sunday m✃orning.
