Not sure F1 got this one right, 6 of the drivers deserve respect for sticking their heads above the current trench of the day. People in general watch F1 to see F1, if they wanted to view politics they can and would go elsewhere.
Personally I don't agree with Hamilton's recent view of Bernie E. In the the early 90's I lived for a time in Middlesex. Racism was obvious, as were the perpetrators and their victims.
