FIA look foolish in battle with Verstappen: 'Ben Sulayem can't win this'

Lewis Hamilton didn't need to think about it for long. He advised Max Verstappen not to serve the community service penalty imposed on the Dutchman for using the word 'f***ed' in a press conference. The former World Champion said he wouldn't do it himself. So even his biggest rival fully backed the Red Bull Racing driver, but there is one party that, for now, insists on the punishment: the FIA. Why is the motorsport federation letting this incident get out of hand?
