the newly-formed World Rally Drivers Association announcing they will just not speak in post-stage interviews if they're going to get fined for swearing is setting down an interesting baton for the GPDA to pick up this weekend

I've seen loads of drivers swear in their own language, even on live broadcasts, and have no problems. The FIA only objects to them swearing in English.
the WRDA (and WRCDA for the co-drivers) have been remarkable in forming and executing their plan so quickly after all that shit went down just last month w rally Sweden, im proud of them!
It's remarkable to me that car racers are capable of coming together in a union, but motorcycle racers aren't. And I don't have a good explanation for it
My theory is that they have the Safety Commission, in which MotoGP riders meet senior Dorna and FIM figures to discuss safety concerns, track safety, etc, and that acts as enough of a lightning rod/distraction to prevent further organisation
