Max Verstappen admits he still doesn’t know what he’ll be doing when he completes his two days of public service with the FIA.
The Dutchman was given the order as punishment for pushing Esteban Ocon in the weighing area after their collision during the Brazilian Grand Prix and has to fulfil it within six months.
“I honestly really don’t know,” he said when asked about it by Sky Sports. “We’ll discuss, between the team and the FIA, what we’re going to do.
“If I agree with it, it doesn’t really matter, does it? What can you do about it? I find it a bit harsh but yeah… We’ll find a solution.”

Some have had fun making comparisons to community service with even Sky putting the idea of looking after Damon Hill’s rubbish forward as a joke.
“I’m definitely not going to look silly,” he replied. “I think anyway I’m already very hardly treated by that, so we’ll find something suitable because I’m not going to look like an idiot.”
Previously, drivers have taken part in FIA safety campaigns or worked with young racing drivers to try and act as role models so those are the kind of acts the FIA will likely be considering.
