Leave him alone.... he's oppressed. Great F1 driver but is suffering under the oppressive jack boot of .... something, maybe. I hope he makes even MORE money next season because he probably deserves it to make him happier and less oppressed.

Completely agree although, life is quite easy for him outside of a race circuit. Good car driver though.

Nah, I’m bored of people moaning about how much he moans about how hard his life is. Especially when it’s easy to ignore articles written about him.

If you’re that triggered by him, maybe avoid all such media.

Can people not just have a moan and throw it out there for other peoples thoughts?

Why cant the 'just ignore him so' brigade ever allow people to just have a moan?

Good driver who knows how to drive the car thats built around him. I would argue that George Russell is a better driver.

Russel jumped into Hamilton's car, which he was too tall for, and arguably would have won in it had it not been for the pitstop feck up and the puncture.

I understand that Hamilton may have had more than a leg up to get him to F1...

Pretty sure he won't be worrying about how he heats the water or stops his kids from freezing and getting ill or keeps a roof over his families heads. Or ambulances not showing up or his kids teachers being on strike or how he gets to work in London when the trains don't run..

Apparently he was also fifth on The Sunday Times Giving List, donating £20m to a variety of charities.

So he's a alright guy in my book.

No leg up for Lewis. His father worked all hours to get the money together for him to race karts. He did well enough to get attention from Ron Dennis at McLaren who then took him under his wing.

George Russell was better funded and got onto the Mercedes driver academy.

He is a brilliant driver but has the uncomfortable load to carry of being the only black driver in F1 and an international celebrity.

He is in Catch 22.

If he says nothing (because he personally has no problems) he is accused of being a selfish arrogant bastard for not using his status to help the poor and oppressed.

If he says something he is accused of being a "bell end" who should shut the fuck up because he is a multi millionaire.

He is simply using his elevated platform to raise awareness.

Abso-fucking-lutely, thank god somebody said it. I mean, what even qualifies a black athlete to discuss the racism they experienced going up through the ranks of their sport. Or, that it is still exists today.

The only people that should be raising awareness of issues affecting other members of our society are those without public voices.

Or, maybe just salt of the earth types who earn minimum wage paid via p.a.y.e like Piers Morgan and Jeremy Clarkson, who definitely don't have their earnings paid via offshore production companies to avoid as much tax as possible.

It's funny how, when he was just Lewis Hamilton the racing driver, he was our Champion, beating the world for good old blighty. But since he got all 'uppity' and started having an opinion, he is suddenly 'a massive bellend'

There was a podcast with Mark Webber recently where he was talking about all the F1 drivers who were complaining about the sacrifices etc that they all bleat on about.

His response:

“Let’s not beat around the bush, you’re being paid a handsome sum of money to do a very, very phenomenal job and that is not a burden,” he said.

“I never spoke about sacrifices, people talking about sacrifices and ‘I gave a lot up’ - I think that’s an absolute load of bull***t.

And what sport or entertainment has a point in your opinion?

One of the benefits of F1 is it has, for some years now, been developing hybrid power units. The internal combustion unit is only 1600cc and the amount of fuel it uses during the race is capped yet it can produce almost 1000 horsepower in qualification trim. The power units now have far higher efficiencies than normal engines and the technology that creates that is being passed into road vehicles.

What point is there to football? Cricket, tennis, darts, etc etc.

The internal combustion unit is only 1600cc and the amount of fuel it uses during the race is capped yet it can produce almost 1000 horsepower in qualification trim. The power units now have far higher efficiencies than normal engines and the technology that creates that is being passed into road vehicles.

What point is there to football? Cricket, tennis, darts, etc etc.

What technology is passed to road vehicles?

Elements of most areas like IC Engine design, brake technology, materials technology, energy recovery systems, electric motor design, tyre construction, fuel technology, vehicle sensoring, fuel economy, aerodynamics, Non bursting fuel tanks, crash protection, carbon fibre construction techniques, battery technology, sports psychology and, unusually, one team partnered with a NHS hospital, and used their technique for designing fast wheel changing to assist the hospital in more efficient operating theatre organisation, to name but a few.

The Williams team also helped reorganise and label the "crash cart" (defibrillator) for better safety and efficiency."

The working with an NHS Trust was a publicity thing, they used the same basic improvement methodology as many trusts use as a matter of course. What they mainly did was give the staff time to implement ideas they already had but weren’t given permission or resource to do by the management.

"...

Just drive the car you muppet..

Don't even bother doing that.

Motor racing is as juvenile and pointless as tuning your car so that the exhaust goes 'Phut Phut Bang Bang' all the time.

Well indeed. I don't doubt they have some great tech relevant for racing cars and their rules. But a lot of it seems to be just fluff and self justifying spin.

It justifies itself as its a money go round. But the altruistic stories... Oh its helped fuel efficiency? Has it? Really? If that was the case why are cars still struggling to get more than 50 mpg?

"Wow!!!

Hiya all...

I have read everyone’s posts..

And it’s all very interesting...

I didn’t think it would take long before someone played the racism card…"

I honestly don’t feel you’re qualified to suggest someone (who, by the way?) played ’The Race Card’ when you brought up colour in the first post, when it added nothing to your complaint (at least, when reading it for what it was, rather than between the lines)


"

Let’s not all forget???

Isn’t his mum white???

"

She is, and he identifies with his black heritage and culture more than his white, why are you bringing this up, are you saying he isn't actually black?


"

I think all posts basically covered all sides of what I was trying to say in my original post..

I don’t care what colour or creed anyone is..

"

I suspeect that you actually do, of all the things people have responded to, you have picked on Race, and have mentioned it 3 times already...


"

I treat people rich or poor how they treat me..

We are all allowed our opinions...

I’m a white English male..

Worked all me life..

And still do..

Funny how boohoo Hamilton didn’t bang on when he had the fastest car for was it 6 yrs??

I hate having the racism card rammed down my throat constantly!!

"

5….

A simple google for "lewis hamilton racism site:news.bbc.co.uk” will give you many many many articles in which LH has commented on, discussed, or answered questions regarding this. Every year for over 15 years. Yes, even when he was winning. You seem to have that mervellous internal inconsistency that many ranters have of not having arguments that back each other up and indeed trip themselves up. Lewis (and EVERY OTHER DRIVER) took the knee in 2020. And 2021. in 2020 mercedes had a black colour scheme “to promote respect and equality… [and] to show our commitment to greater diversity within our team and our sport” (not LH words). Guess who had the fastest car and won in 2020 and 2021?

Basically, LH says he was bullied at school by kids who were being racist, and 6 days later you see it and decide it’s been rammed down your throats forever (although not when he was winning, even though by your definition it was, and, it also wasn't.. er) and moan about it like he’s been on the front pages of todays papers being a diva for complaining about something he’s no right to complain about because he’s got money. He should just go drive his car, even though currently there isn't one to drive and testing isn’t allowed anyway. Bassically what you really want is for him to not exist in your life in any aspect.

Still, as ever, threads like this are very good in outing those who I will never wish to meet or chat with, on a cellular level...

Well then he’s can't have suffered racism then I guess. Who knew it was so simple

When someone puts just a few drops of piss in your beer, you’re gonna complain about the piss in your beer. When being mixed race, you don't get half the racism.

What I really respect were drivers from decades ago that competed in the sport for genuine love. It was nowhere near as well paid as it is now and FAR more dangerous.

Unsure what point you are trying to make honestly.

Just an opinion from someone who has dealt with Lewis and many better drivers who've driven the same car, faster..

But don't fit the marketing remit!

Another weirdly clearly self contradictory statement, so white drivers don’t get the same access to sponsorships, therefore as the only black driver LH is the only one actually benefitting from the amount of money in F1?! Or something?

The amount of money it costs to develop and build an F1 car would feed over 100 000 poor families for year. That fact is something no decent human being should ever be comfortable with.

I agree, the best don’t, but what you are seemingly saying without saying is that by virtue of that argument, LH is an average driver, who has only got into his position because of his marketability, which agreed, is part of a drivers attractiveness to an F1 team.

So, in the rich white mans world of F1, in the early 2000s when Ron Dennis first talent apotted LH (and it was telent spotting, not marketting spotting), it was because he thought he could make money off having a black driver? And yet, in the 20 ears since then, if simply finding a black driver who was half decent but would expand your marketting appeal = a show in driver who can win races and make money…. hoe come there’s still only 1 black driver, who still gets shit for being black?

Honestly, every other driver on the grid is assessed by his driving skills, backing, and marketability. Every one. And yet, why is the black driver the one who is held accountable for this process? A driver who, when he BECAME an F1 driver, had no marketting appeal, no backers, just the admiration of a team owner for his driving ability?

Unfortunately the world doesn’t work like this, much as it would be nice And such comparisons are a) unfair, and b) available to point at absolutely any aspect of life, from why Chelsea are paying 1/3rd the cost of Mercedes annual F1 Bill for a single football player, to why someone bought a £40k tesla when they could have has a 15 year old Fiesta for £1k.

The point is, those vastly inflated figures are not being paid or contributed to by the ones who can;t afford to feed themselves, so they are in no worse position if a sport like F1 does, or does not exist. They don’t get any richer, because a private business is now no longer operating.

The money spent my those teams, is coming from elsewhere, not anyones welfare provision. And, for the most part, it’s an investment, not a bill, because they will earn money off the back of it, and also employ 10s of thousands of well paid engineers, marketers, designers, mechanics, drivers etc as well as entertaining millions.

Nope!

- BS story on talent spotting (Had McLaren logos on his kart ffs, no one has that level of support at such a fledgling stage. Sorry, other than the very rich)

And just like that, we have circled back to the crux, a well wrapped up semi discussion that is there to seemingly show that there is a well thought out reason for why you think, in all simplicity, that he’s not allowed to say he’s suffered racism through his life because he’s rich. And let’s ignore every other driver with boats, planes, more than one house etc. Jackie Stewart moved to Switzerland to avoid paying tax, and still lives there. Want to villify him or is he too white?

You know, I can totally see it. Anyone at the level he is in their chosen arena, be they a sportsperson or a singer etc, are going to have an entourage who’s whole purpose is to provide security and keep out the plebs from getting near to them - although not always because they think they are above the plebs, but just you imagine getting autograph hunted, or rather selfie stalked these days I guess, every minute of your public life outside your own home. Far better to remove yourself from that sort of thing, that have to either force a smile and freeze frame every 5 minutes for your life, or worse be an actual cock to people rather than a perceived one by telling everyone to fuck off.

I don’t like his interests, his clothing, I sometimes see his humbleness as grating, but equally what’s worse, someone who thanks the fans at every podium even when it seems insencere, or someone who never thanks tha fans, so we can never accuse them of being insincere and therefore they get held to a lower standard. Tricky one.

I don’t have any special admiration for him as a person. I just abhor the grief he gets for doing and saying things that white drivers have never received grief for, and peoples inability to separate the media making a story about an answer he gave during an interview to a question a white journalist no doubt put to him from feeling like they’ve had black propaganda stuffed down their throat. Any many on this thread fall into that category, and will then add on a thousand cuts of other complaints, which either don’t exist in reality or can be applied to all drivers. Where has he bemoained his life and told unprivileged people how to live their lives? He hasn’t. But prople will whinge, and then go “Race card!” when they get pulled up.

Even cocks, deserve decency. Just because you don't like his personality, doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to be treated like shit and excuse that because he’s got money.

Enjoy your boats, planes, cars, multiple residence's, tax haven's, sham celebrity relationship's, etc..

Just refrain from bemoaning your life hardships and telling unprivileged people how to live their lives..

Therefore, Cock!!

And just like that, we have circled back to the crux, a well wrapped up semi discussion that is there to seemingly show that there is a well thought out reason for why you think, in all simplicity, that he’s not allowed to say he’s suffered racism through his life because he’s rich. And let’s ignore every other driver with boats, planes, more than one house etc. Jackie Stewart moved to Switzerland to avoid paying tax, and still lives there. Want to villify him or is he too white?"

Happy to address all points you raise, however it seems your 'argument' is the one circling..

Before doing so, I ask one question.

Did you have any first hand experience of Lewis or motorsport in general?

If your opinion and references are purely media and spectator based, I'll just bow out.

I have unaware friends who support him and I just don't comment as it's their prerogative to do so..

My opinion is mine and first hand.

It’s of no relevance to the thread, though it may be relevant to where you took it. I have met him to shake hands, before the Hungarian GP in 2019. He didn't seem any different to any other driver I have briefly seen

As I mentioned in a reply to someone else. It’s not about if he is a cock. He may well be one, and I totally get that.

It’s about only calling him out for being one because he said something that triggered a white person, as per the OP post

I presume you read the thread. In which the OP used race right at the top and then 5 times in his reply to peoples input, which were also largely concerned with race before I even replied once…

That’s why. Because that is the discussion here. It’s not is Lewis a cock. It’s Lewis is a cock for complaining about racism, he should just drive the car, and pleasure himself quietly in is tax haven with his entourage, but by the way I’m not being racist, he really is a cock, although he was only signed becauase he’s black …. and and and.

I don't know him personally.

I have seen and heard a lot of what he says both in the media world and over the radio whilst driving.

My conclusion is that I do not dislike him because of his family background or appearance, for me its simply because he is a massive hypocrite using his privileged position to promote poorly researched agendas.

In the words of Rhianna.

I don't understand why because someone dislikes a black person it has to be racism. I don't warm to the chap. Not because he's black. He may be a great driver and he may do great things and other people may like him. But I don't. Ditto for verstappen. Webber I like. Russel, gasly, norris seem more likeable. Of course nowhere near Hamiltons achievements. But it's unhealthy and lazy and offensive just to play the racism card.

This is very fair to say, but relies on those people not having already played the card first, because that’s far lazier.that card was played in post 1 by the OP, and again by many more detractors before I or others felt it some balance was needed.

Actually it was already relatively balanced until the OP replied himself ignored every post above where lots of people above had said they dislike him without mentioning or hinting at race, and went on a tangent about how many had brought race into it, which few had although he did 5 times in one post… that’s when I thought I’d spend 2p

The saddest thing about the "internet generation" is people can "hate" so easily someone they have never met, someone who they never will meet and someone who has had no direct impact on their lives.

Where in Hell did all this hate come from?? Has hate become devalued or are we really that quick to go to the very worst human emotion?

My original post was because I read again another bs statement headline from Hamilton that he had been bullied at school...

Like all his articles I’ve give up reading about him as I’ve just had enough of him...

I fall in and out of love watching different sports and the last few seasons have been awesome as cars have been closer in performance and really shown even in lesser cars how good all the other drivers are...

Like leclerc interviews when he has been totally shafted by his team again..just talks about race and cock ups and that’s it...

Because MV doesn't really comment about much outside of F1/Motorsport, so his opinion (or any hypocrisy) doesn't impact on peoples life - and i'm not sure what he's worse at as most F1 drivers are equally pretty whingy and its always someone elses fault when it comes to things not going to plan on track

"Good driver who knows how to drive the car thats built around him. I would argue that George Russell is a better driver.

Russel jumped into Hamilton's car, which he was too tall for, and arguably would have won in it had it not been for the pitstop feck up and the puncture.

I understand that Hamilton may have had more than a leg up to get him to F1...

No leg up for Lewis. His father worked all hours to get the money together for him to race karts. He did well enough to get attention from Ron Dennis at McLaren who then took him under his wing.

George Russell was better funded and got onto the Mercedes driver academy."

He was still funded by McLaren in his early kart racing career, used to see him at PF international circuit with the kid that looked like the milky bar kid who sold a story years later saying he was neglected because he was white. They both had all the latest kit and a big silver brand new Mercedes van and awning but no McLaren / west branding for obvious reasons.

I shouldn't throw around insults in the forum, but you are a seriously deluded man.

All you have done is show your ignorance"

No I'm not the deluded one, I don't lap up his lies and insults like you clearly do. How anyone can defend this scumbag is beyond me.

"Good driver who knows how to drive the car thats built around him. I would argue that George Russell is a better driver.

Russel jumped into Hamilton's car, which he was too tall for, and arguably would have won in it had it not been for the pitstop feck up and the puncture.

I understand that Hamilton may have had more than a leg up to get him to F1...

No leg up for Lewis. His father worked all hours to get the money together for him to race karts. He did well enough to get attention from Ron Dennis at McLaren who then took him under his wing.

George Russell was better funded and got onto the Mercedes driver academy.

He was still funded by McLaren in his early kart racing career, used to see him at PF international circuit with the kid that looked like the milky bar kid who sold a story years later saying he was neglected because he was white. They both had all the latest kit and a big silver brand new Mercedes van and awning but no McLaren / west branding for obvious reasons. "

No you got the story wrong. It was Hamilton saying he was neglected by the big bad white people. Like he always does. Always attacks and slanders his own race. Ironic when he is pulling the racism card and calling us whites Nazis when he is sponsored by the company that literally built the nazi car fleet (Mercedes). Fuck Lewis Hamilton.

"The amount of money it costs to develop and build an F1 car would feed over 100 000 poor families for year. That fact is something no decent human being should ever be comfortable with."

Imagine how many poor families could be fed if the world stops funding fucking missions to Mars !

"Hes a racist fuck with absolutely no talent. He's certainly no Schumacher in his prime. The sooner he retires or emigrates to the centre of an exploding sun, the better.

If he has no talent how is he so successful?

You don't need talent to be successful in the 21st Century. Just pull the race card like he does every 5 seconds. He is quick to forget he is part Caucasian when he is having one of his many 'why I hate white people and how they destroyed my life' rants. Along with his racist black student only sporting programs.

I’ll just go and tell all the Olympics contestants. And Oscars nominees

The majority of 2020s Oscar so called talent can't act to save their lives. Certainly aren't Al Pacino or David Jason. And he can't drive. At all.

David Couthard was a million times better than he ever was.

No. Of course he can't drive. What were we thinking.

Why are you assuming i "lap up his lies and insults"?

I dont even read his comments or interviews.

So, his wins were rigged? And he cant drive?

And what is 'his own race'??

You really dont have a clue, do you.

Id love to have a battle of wits with you, but i never fight an unarmed man

WTF with this thread. Of course Hamilton can drive, and is happy with things oversteering a little.

The current cars don’t suit him so well because the trend is to chase downforce not handling.

He’s made some great moves at just the right time into the right car.

If F1 is rigged it’s by the FIA deciding who won after the race every week, which is why I stopped watching before the halos came in.

Has he ever called people nazis?

Also he is mixed race, I'm not sure what you mean by 'own race'?

Mixed race is part white.

One of his parents is white. As i said his own race. And yes many a time he has called white people nazis but quickly shut the convo down when he was told he is sponsored by the company that literally built a fleet for the nazis themselves. He happily takes money from them no question.

Overrated driver to that's had the best car most seasons, last season without the best car didn't win a race and got beat by his teammate. No where near Schumacher or Senna.

I can't find a single source on line thst he has called white people nazis?

He is vocal about issues of race but I'm not sure any of that comes close to be equitable to calling people nazis. Similarly I can't see anything he's said that is overtly racist

Ive done exactly the same...i couldn't find a single comment where he's called anyone Nazis.

But ill keep looking

Lots of people slagging him off for driving for Mercedes and wearing Hugo Boss though, with their connections to the Nazis

Arent you glad he explained what 'mixed race' meant?
