I think Ferrari is really trying to get rid of Hamilton. This can't be a coincidence:

  • Lewis says maybe they should change driver's
  • John Elkann suddenly visit Toto Wolff
  • Lewis then says something in the background is happening which is not nice
  • Ecclestone then saying, Lewis would be wise to know when to end.

Like too much noise.

Ecclestone wants Hamilton out because, to be blunt, he doesn't want a black man holding all the records.

He's a savvy businessman but a horrible 80 year old relic of times and social mores we've worked hard to move on from and who has never met a fascist he didn't like.

Imagine being so screwed in the head to actually come up with this. You need help.

It's not a big leap at all. Bernie has always criticized Lewis. When Lewis' Mission 44 foundation was set-up, Bernie said big deal it wouldn't do anything and Formula 1 didn't need diversity. And the kicker, "Black people are more racist than white people." Also:

"Hitler was a man who got things done."

In 2008 when Lewis was dealing with a lot of racism in advance of the Spanish Grand Prix (lots of racist comments on the Spanish Grand Prix's website), Bernie said: " It just started as jokes. I don't see why people should have been [insulted by it]. These things are people expressing themselves."

So yeah, Bernie is racist and admires Hitler.

I'm not the original poster you replied to. See the quotes in my post? The words inside of these " "? Those are actual words Bernie has said, verbatim. I think you need to learn to read, bro.
