Lewis Hamilton is known for explicit radio messages

This year has seen a lot of drivers getting frustrated and shouting on their team radio, a lot of which has been aired on TV and though such chatter may excite the fans, it is not healthy for the sport.

With experienced drivers losing their cool on the team radio, it does not set a good example for the youngsters who are dreaming to be an F1 racer in the future. Though healthy racing rivalry must be encouraged, such blatant radio messages should come to an end.
