Language like that is quite common in the Netherlands, I suppose it's all rappers there. I fail to see how this did any harm to F1, or motorsport. It is childish. This will further reduce the quality of press conferences where drivers really do not say anything but the usual: "Car was [not] running well, we are [not] confident we can run for the top places [run in the points]. We have [no] upgrades. See you after the race.".
