#lewishamilton has been trending for over 24 hours since.

No other driver gets this treatment, not even Mazepin. Some blatant racism, some veiled using the crash as an excuse.

It's not helped by @MBrundleF1 or @karunchandhok blaming Lewis before properly watching a replay.
2/ Twice now @Max33Verstappen has tweeted after an incident gaslighting @LewisHamilton.

However, despite his team's condemnation of the racism towards #LH44, NOT ONCE has he called it out or asked it to stop.

He could be a role model by stepping up, but instead he cowers away..
3/ @F1's #WeRaceAsOne campaign is a joke. They watered it down to as sponsors & racists didn't like it being about racial equality.

Playing a 90 second scripted VT prior to a race is & showing the pre-race drivers kneeling for 3 seconds to hide drivers not participating is weak.

I personally enjoy Toto Wolff’s merciless reign of unrelenting terror
It makes a lot of billionaires waste their money and look stupid, and it upsets Christian Horner
That it’s being driven, literally and metaphorically, by Lewis Hamilton, and is covered in anti-racism and pro-LGBT branding, is also a delicious added morsel for me

Mazepin gotta go.
In his ‘apology’ he wrote:

“I have to hold myself to a higher standard as a Formula 1 driver”

How about just be a better person?
What kind of example does this set to younger, impressionable fans?

Groping a random girl is fine? Then showing it off on your socials?

There are some actual wires loose in his brain if he thinks any of his actions are okay.

#WeRaceAsOne?

Let’s find out F1, shall we?

#WeRaceAsOne is a movement against racism, but discrimination comes with several different facades and sexism is one of them, this weekend, an incredible F3 driver named @SophiaFloersch was pushed out of the track and spunned into the grass by a another driver
It was an accident and no ill intent was at play (we hope) but because she is a female driver all the comments on social media made by fans of the sport are of mockery and despotism against her as if she didn't belong there, and that is bullshit, because
Had this accident happened among two Male drivers the narrative will be different... so, if you are a true fan of the sport, educate yourself and strive for diversity, because the @F1 is already on that path.
