"It's just probably a bit the world that we live in, within the sport, but also [in] general, it seems like people are a bit more sensitive to stuff."
"That's how it goes. I guess the world is changing a bit, but I think it already just starts with not broadcasting it, or not giving the option for people to hear it."
"That will help a lot more than putting bans on drivers. For example, I couldn't even say the F word. It's not even that bad. The car was not working [in Baku]; the car is F'd."
"Yeah, excuse me for the language but come on, like, what are we, five-year-olds, six-year-olds?"
"Even if a five-year-old or six-year-old is watching, they will eventually swear anyway, even if the parents want or they will not allow it, when they grow up, they will walk around with their friends and they will be swearing, so this is not changing anything."
"I think you will swear anyway. If it's not in this room, maybe somewhere else. Everyone swears. Some people a bit more than others - it also depends a bit what language you speak."
"Of course, abuse is something else. I think a lot of things get broadcasted nowadays where in other sports, you don't run around with a mic [microphone] attached to you."
"A lot of people say a lot of bad things when they are full of adrenaline in other sports, [it] just doesn't get picked up."
"We're here, probably for also entertainment purposes, things get sent out, and that's why people can pick up on it, discuss it on social media, and you get all sorts of trouble."
"So,I think it already just starts with not broadcasting it. If you don't broadcast it, no-one will know, only the team. With that, you can deal internally with these kind of things."
