Yep, totally agree.
As a non native english speaker it’s always funny to me, how the commentators on Sky F1 immediately apologize for the “dirty” words the drivers use.
Come on guys, we all know these words and everyone should be allowed to say “shit” or “fuck”, when things are exactly that: shit!
This is actually required by law. It’s party of their broadcasting licence that they don’t use profanity before “the watershed” (2100 at night). If they receive a complaint that they were seen to allow the profanity they get fined. And repeat offending will lose their broadcast licence.
It’s dumb and you may not agree with it, but that’s the rules.
