When I am a steward, I do not express any opinions.

You do, when a false start gets a 5k fine and no grid penalty.

“I understand it from Jos’s point of view because it is his son. Is there any bias? No, of course not. I wasn’t the only one to think that Max was over the top in Mexico. Lando Norris and [McLaren boss] Zak Brown thought so too

Those are the people and comments you chose in your defense, the other party who have a vested interest in seeing Max penalised.

well, tbf Max was over the top in Mexico and the penalties were justified, especially the second one. That's not to say Herbert isn't biased. He hates Verstappen and will take any opportunity to penalise him.

He really is a bit of a moron, isn't he?

His intelligence is insufficient to have him realise that he should not react to remarks of the father of a driver.

Max was definitely over the top in Mexico. He should be enormously thankful he wasn't punished for his T8 incident, which IMO was far worse than his T4 incident.
