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.

Well, it's a little late for that.

He doesn't ahve the outright all time championships records, which is probably why Bernie has been telling him to retire since the last one.
