Hamilton hatred

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I honestly don't know, as I don't know what report this is from, but did the interviewer ask any white drivers if they would be boycotting the Grand Prix?

Difficult to do this during a pre arranged one on one interview... Also it would probably be dependent on the interviewee talking about his support for the NBA happenings.
 
I don't care for Hamilton particularly. I find him quite whiny and spoiled.

Addendum: I don't know him, he's probably very nice. His brother is, who I've met and worked with.

I also would never deny that Hamilton is probably one of, if not the, greatest driver of all time. His ability is incredible. I wish I was a fraction as talented as he is at anything.
 
What is he doing. He looks like a walking cringe by dragging political crap in to the sport and wearing that t-shirt.

He is probably going to leave F1 as the most successful ever, then I suspect proceed to drag his own name through the mud.

If you need to ask that then you are are clueless as him, you also a tax evader? :rolleyes:

I give you a hint, he does not give a monkey for these people, only his own narcissism and at the end of the day innocent or not (she did not know her BF was using her address for drugs, sure) if you shoot a cop expect to get shot back.

Actually he putting his money where his mouth is with the Hamilton commission.
Unlike the other drivers, especially the ones who stand up and make claims in wanting to fight it their own way yet I've seen them do nothing.

But it's ok as it's not their fight and their teams are not affected.

It's not my fight either so I do nothing also but I just watch and admire rather than hate.

Jealous much? :rolleyes:

Before posting in future, you should get your facts straight about the murder of an innocent woman.

I do think that any other driver wouldn’t have gotten away with it in F1, but they can’t touch Hamilton due to his records and status in F1.

It was a little thrust in our faces this weekend, but I just switch off to it. I agree with my wife when she says it should be kept out of sport and that with F1 it’s a class problem rather than a racism problem these days, although Hamiltons focus seems to have shifted more to events outside the sport.

He’s probably lucky they aren’t going to Texas this year, I’m not sure how it would go down there tbh.
 
Lewis is still my favourite driver. I would rather athletes / celebrities not use it as a platform for political views but unfortunately it seems to be the way now so I just ignore it.
 
The problem is where do you draw the line? What if every driver has some political stand they want to make? What happens when they go to Russia and want to make an anti-Putin statement, go to China and make a statement regarding the treatment of the Muslim Uyghurs, or a stand against the war in Yemen that the Saudis are prosecuting? If any drivers have some less mainstream opinions, are they allowed to campaign for them in the name of free speech, even if their teams, the FIA, and Liberty Media don't support it?

I don't know where you could draw the line, or how you could do it without attracting criticism from one side or the other, which is why so many sports just ban it all together, rather than end up in a no win situation where a non-political sport ends up being used as a platform of any kind.
