FIA bans veteran F1 journalist for criticising Ferrari's Leclerc

The Daily Mail will boycott the remaining races of the 2026 F1 season after the FIA revoked veteran journalist Jonathan McEvoy's media credentials over an opinion column criticising Ferrari's Charles Leclerc. McEvoy had called the 29-year-old a "sneaky little bastard". The criticism followed an opening-lap incident involving Leclerc and his teammate Lewis Hamilton at the Mexico City Grand Prix.
