The FIA has announced that Johnny Herbert will no longer serve as a steward, with his media punditry work declared “incompatible” with the role.

Herbert had served on the FIA stewarding panel as the driver steward, and continued to offer views on Formula 1 through work as a pundit, but the governing body has now said he will no longer serve on the stewarding panel.

“It is with regret that we announce today that Johnny Herbert will no longer fulfil the position of F1 driver steward for the FIA,” read a statement.

“Johnny is widely respected and brought invaluable experience and expertise to his role. However, after discussion, it was mutually agreed that his duties as an FIA steward and that of a media pundit were incompatible.

“We thank him for his service and wish him well for his future endeavours.”
