Hamilton suffers racist abuse…

“Lewis Hamilton is targeted by racists online after his British Grand Prix win and accused of being 'disrespectful and unsportsmanlike' for celebrating the victory while F1 title rival Max Verstappen was in hospital after a huge first-lap crash with the Mercedes driver."

Has mainstream attention highlighted this issue or given the knuckle draggers the platform to exploit?


I’m really becoming fed up of this now. I was against using a form of identification to sign up for social media but while this is now a regular occurrence I can’t see any other way. These rats need smoking out

There’s been some great debate on the Hamilton/Verstappen crash on here. Not once has skin colour been mentioned.

That's partly because those that think that way know they'll be banned, whereas people on twitter get off scott free.

It should be viewed as a badge of honour - Means you've made it to the top if all people can resort to is racial abuse.
