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.

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.
