Ted Kravitz did pretty much the same. Ted said that teams used to swear on purpose, and now the FOM has a 'beep machine' in order to broadcast messages with swearing. I still think Permane sent a precedent in terms of 'yelling and swearing' at his WDC driver.
Yes it is not the swearing it is the screaming. Mika Hakkinen has said he has never been spoken to like that, Steve Roberstson said Kimi has never been spoken to like that and Lewis said he would have answered back the same. It doesn't seem like normal every occurrence. There aren't any examples around of senior members screaming at their drivers.
