Been a massive fan for 30+ years, this is the last straw for me.

I love Lewi's driving, but he really needs somebody to sit him down and tell him the STFU on this shit.

Couldn’t agree more mate.

Calling out other drivers for not “taking the knee” and being actively “against racism”, whatever that means, is a poor show from him.

Hamilton is MAJOR SJW, a Token hire, and would HAVE no record if not for Mercedes power plant propelling him to the front. As soon as someone overtakes him, he's usually done.

 

Also, I too, am an American that loves F1.

 

Add Vettle to your list of cucks, surprised to see him take a knee, would've thought he'd have more fight.

 

Maybe one day before Verstappen fucking retires Red Bull mechanics will get their shit together and learn how to car or he'll get signed by Ferrari. His record would be better if the damn car would stop dying on him.

Siteless_Vagrant 3 points ago +5 / -2

(in my most highest of high royalty english accents) RUSSELL? In a Silver Arrow?? I say old chap are you MAD old boy?? Preposterous!

 

Seriously though, (end accent) that WOULD be an interesting move. I would suspect a move for Norris or one of the Renault drivers first. (I'd say Verstappen but I don't see RB letting that happen). And wasn't there some rumors at the end of last season about one of the F2 drivers being pulled in?

Toto Wolff is Russell's agent. He's also in the Mercedes program of drivers. He's first in line if you ask me.

It was so satisfying seeing Hamilton not even get to the podium, you just know he was standing ready with his BLM t-shirt. You know the orange man thing got me thinking, if Trump is the "Orange Man" then perhaps the Dutch were a match always meant to be. A lot of people here in the Netherlands absolutely love Trump (don't believe the media!). In fact, if you look at footage of our recent anti corona protests you'll see a lot of folks wearing MAGA caps!

Leclerc made a good statement today. He also seems somewhat level headed. Also these drivers are probably under so much pressure from their manufacturers and sponsors to toe the line that they are in fear of losing the best job in the world.

Leclerc statement:

All 20 drivers stand united with their teams against racism and prejudice, at the same time embracing the principles of diversity, equality and inclusion, supporting F1's and FIA's commitment.

"I believe that what matters are facts and behaviours in our daily life rather than formal gestures that could be seen as controversial in some countries. I will not take the knee but this does not mean at all that I am less committed than others in the fight against racism."

To be fair there is plenty of racism from whites against blacks, and vice versa. It is everywhere and I’m not going to lie about this. The affirmative action stuff does not negate the fact that a lot of people are racist. But BLM is just a political tool that is only making racial division worse. A racist will not have a change of heart because of BLM protests obviously, if anything racial tensions stoked by the democratic media is only making things worse. But this is their intent, hopefully people on all sides will see this.

Willholbert09 2 points ago +2 / -0

I don’t argue this. Imo The more racism is mentioned the worse it gets on all sides. But once again BLM is a political tool with attempts for Democrat media to relate racist white culture to Trump in hopes of changing votes and also getting charity money for the DNC.

So I have no issues with someone “leclerc” admitting there is racism, as everyone knows this.

The best way to combat this is to hopefully convince more black people that trump is better for them than the alternative, and BLM is not on their side but only making racial division worse. I see, in this forum, many black trump supporters and this gives me hope.

Kek. But at least LeClerc and the Iceman (Alfa Romeo?)had the balls to stand up. Hamilton stirring up & sucking up hard to the SJW crowd when two years ago he was attacked ruthlessly by these same people and lost woke sponsors and was just about FIRED for posting a Christmas video where he laughingly told his 3 year old nephew: “take that (tutu) off! Boys don’t wear dresses!” Please sir, may I have a another? Sad.

I like how the message is "take a knee to end racism".

These guys are like, "so I took a knee, where's my check?" Like they give a fuck at all. Laughable.

Hamilton has been rather quiet about his sponsor, Petronas, being in court later this year for war crimes in the Sudan

When the consortium that Petronas took part in operated in Block 5A, approximately 12,000 people died, and 160,000 were violently displaced from their land and homes, many forever. Satellite pictures taken between 1994 and 2003 show that the activities of Petronas in Sudan coincided with a spectacular drop in agricultural land use in its concession area.

They are both open wheel cars, but far from the same. Most F1 guys have balls too small to race in IndyCar. Some of them admit it, others keep there mouth shut about it. The super speedways scare the F1 guys to death. Tracks like the Indy 500 (huge super speedways) are uniquely American
