LONDON: Six times Formula 1 motor racing champion Lewis Hamilton has criticised his sport for its silence on the killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died after a white US police officer knelt on his neck.AdvertisementHamilton, Formula One's first black world champion, spends much of his time in America and spoke out on the issue in an Instagram story on Sunday.

"Not a sign from anybody in my industry which of course is a white dominated sport. I’m one of the only people of colour there yet I stand alone," he added.

Stick to driving a race car Lewis.

Wtf has F1 gotta do with Floyd's death? They did a good thing by staying silent instead of getting into a political shit storm. Just drive and win, stop whining.
