LONDON, June 28 — Lewis Hamilton said the “time has come for action” after being the subject of a racially offensive term used by three-time Formula One world champion Nelson Piquet.

“It’s more than language,” Hamilton tweeted. “These archaic mindsets need to change and have no place in our sport. In a statement, the FIA said: “The FIA strongly condemns any racist or discriminatory language and behaviour, which have no place in sport or wider society. The seven-time world champion regularly displayed “black lives matter” on his apparel and took the knee before races in the 2020 season following the murder of George Floyd in the USA.“We condemn in the strongest terms any use of racist or discriminatory language of any kind,” Mercedes, Hamilton’s team, said in a statement.
