Nicholas Latifi has been under immense pressure lately as he fights to improve his Formula 1 race results.

The seven-time World champion and winner of over 100 Grand Prix is growing increasingly agitated at the car.

During a practice on Friday he reportedly got into the team radio and said: “I am f***ing losing my mind. I
