Max Verstappen has been advised to stop “wasꦺting energy” protesting against hiꦬs swearing reprimand by Nico Rosberg.

Verstappen got into trouble at last weekend’s F1ℱ Singapore Grand Prix for descr🦋ibing his Red Bull as “f******” in the pre-event press conference.

He received a communiꦆty service order as a punishment from the FIA for his foul language, and has made his displeasure obvious.

Rosberg told Sky Sports: “Ther❀e’s two sides. On one side, my kids are watchi🌊ng.

“On the other hand, we want them t🀅o be gladiators and show their emotions.

“Either way, bleep it out and let them൩ show their emotions. It’s important for all of us watching.

“If I was in Max’s position🌠, it would not be so good because he is wasting his energy on this.

“He needs full focus. He is fighting for the world ch♚ampionship at the momen꧅t.

“It’s not so great that he’📖s deal♌ing with it so much.”

Verstappen made his feelings known with a number of🦄 protests in Singapore.

At his next press conference after qualifying, he answered only briefly before pretending that a problem with his v🅰oice was prohibiting him from speaking.

Verstapཧpen also took to speaking to journalists away from the official press conference in more depth.

Lando Norris and Lewis H💧amilton then came to Verstappen’s aid by dis⭕agreeing with the reprimand that came his way.

Hamilton describ🎐🧸ed the punishment as “a joke” and urged Verstappen not to comply.

The off-track shenanigans remain only part of🌠 his headache at the moment, though.

As Rosberg warned, Verstappen is locked in a battle to retain the F1 ti🦩tle.

🎀Norris’ run of form has cut Verstappen’s lead to 52 points at the top of the standings.

Verstappen will be champion for a fourth year in a row if he finishes🌠 a🌼s runner-up, behind Norris, at every grand prix and sprint until the end of the season.
