For Formula 1 purists, Derek Warwick belongs to an illustrious list of drivers, having competed for the most iconic teams. Young audiences know that the Brit works as a steward in Formula 1. But certainly not everyone really knows his true self: "People should know: We are not paid to be stewards".

Derek Warwick, the former Formula One driver, has been suspended from his role as a steward at this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix after making “unauthorised media comments” about Max Verstappen.

The FIA have suspended Derek Warwick as an F1 steward for this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix with immediate effect. Warwick, 70, was due to be on the stewarding panel for this weekend's action in Montreal.
