George Russell has become the latest F1 driver to speak up against the FIA's ban of political statements.

Those talks will come at a time when FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem has stepped back from a hands on role in Formula 1.

Russell says he hasn’t spoken with Ben Sulayem yet this season but has been in contact with F1 race director Niels Wittich. “But I have been in contact with Niels on the more sporting and racing perspective and we’ve got a really strong dialogue of which all the views of the drivers are being shared and put forward.

“But in terms of the dialogue direct with Mohammed, I guess we’ll have to have a conversation at some point on what is the right way to go about this.”Although a lot of the headlines doing the rounds in Formula 1 are about the freedom of speech ban, there are other issues the drivers also need clarity on.Pierre Gasly is knocking on the door of a one race ban with the new Alpine signing sitting on 10 points.
