"A very typical White response?"

Is there also such a thing as a "Very typical Black response" or would that be considered racist?

I think you've missed my point.

I am saying that people are so obsessed with people saying something racist than they are with black people actually being murdered because of the colour of their skin.

And to me I think that is backward, but maybe that's very white of me who knows.

Personally I don't care what the prejudice is, I feel like it should be addressed if it's verbal, but do I think it should be involving the Media and law enforcement more than actual violent crimes? No, look at how little coverage that Azeem Rafiq in the Cricket has had lately, and there is alleged violent outbursts in that case.

Unfortunately there is no cure for racism and I can’t see there being one
Some countries are far more racist than other’s

i stand with Nelson on this

maybe he shouldn't have said the N word, ok


he has very good points, Hamilton always acts like a stupid crybaby when things aren't going his way


even his former teammate Bottas dislikes him, especially the way how he has been used as a pawn for him

Tbf in F1 nobody is as much of a crybaby as Verstappen, but I bet Piquet wouldn't call him slurs or any random insults because we're meant to support the brat according to the media.

And what now?

Should people in powerful positions in life go about the action of controlling everybody else's mindset because Mr Piquet used a racist term?

Oh no, certainly not.

Hamiltin should deal with this personally and not lump everyone in the same bracket.

[Cherie]

He has apologised and said the word he used was mistranslated

Make of that what you will

poor Michael Masi getting worked out just because Mercedes didn't want him anymore

well thank you FIA for new car rules, and Verstappen is getting support from Leclerc in terms of not changing anything anymore for this season, since Sainz and Russell complained about too much shaking in the cars

Lewis Hamilton has criticised spectators at the Austrian Grand Prix for cheering when he crashed in qualifying at the Red Bull Ring.

Hamilton went off at Turn Seven, close to grandstands packed with Dutch fans of his 2021 title rival Max Verstappen.

"I was going through a bunch of stuff in the crash, but to hear it afterwards you know... I don't agree with any of that, no matter what," he said.

"A driver could have been in hospital, and you are going to cheer that?"

The incident left Hamilton 10th in qualifying, although he was promoted to ninth on the grid for Saturday's sprint event after a penalty for Red Bull's Sergio Perez.

I feel the same - though it wasn’t a crash as such .. he just kinda slid sideways into the padded barriers .. very slight, if any , car damage . There was never any chance of injury - the cars are uber safe these days anyways

Thankfully it ended up not being too bad.

But I do honestly think that some Hamilton & Verstappen fans are taking the rivalry to an unhealthy level.

They simply do not like each other at all

Maybe Hamilton simply isn’t used to someone standing up to him ..

He complains a lot about Max but he’s made the exact same ‘risky moves himself against other drivers -throughout his whole career .

thats what crowds are for, to cheer

Cheering crashes is cynical, in my opinion.

I remember where I was and what I was doing when Ayrton Senna was killed. It's just one of those things you'll remember for the rest of your life, like when Diana was killed.
