According to the details, the statement of the six-time world champion came after winning Sunday’s Styrian Grand Prix.

Hamilton added that “I just had to encourage them that racism is here, going to be here and probably be here longer than our time here and people of colour, who are subject to racism, don’t have time to take a moment to protest and that be it.”

“We’ve really got to think, as a sport, what we can do because those are nice signs, but passion is needed.”

“F1 has come forward and said they are supporting ending racism and it is amazing to see Mercedes is also doing that, but no other team has done a single thing,” said Hamilton.
