Zak Brown: McLaren ready to invest in permanent steward system

McLaren boss Zak Brown has responded to Johnny Herbert's dismissal as a steward and expressed his opinion on the Formula 1 judging system, stating that reforms are needed.

"I know this may be an unpopular opinion among my colleagues, but I do believe that in a sport as high-tech and expensive as Formula 1, you can't rely on a temporary steward system that has proven inconsistent at times.

We're talking about a multi-billion dollar business, and if we need to invest a little more to make the judging fairer and more transparent, then we're ready to do that," PlanetF1 quotes Brown as saying.

The FIA ​​has not yet commented on Brown's proposal, but PlanetF1 sources inside the organization claim that the issue of judging reform is indeed being discussed at the highest level.
