Lewis Hamilton spent the days before the 2020 Tuscan Grand Prix waiting for a T-shirt in the mail. For the most successful driver in the history of Formula 1, a man about to pilot a miracle of engineering at 200 miles per hour, this would not normally have been a priority. Race weekends are about torque maps and tire compounds and schedules honed down to the minute.
But Mugello last summer was different. This was the season of Black Lives Matter protests. The shirt he’d ordered came emblazoned with a message he’d seen across social media, but not once inside the traveling bubble of F1. It read “Arrest the Cops Who Killed Breonna Taylor” in all caps, a tribute to the 26-year-old Black medical worker who was shot and killed by Louisville, Kentucky, police officers during a raid on her apartment.
This has nothing to do with race but competence.
Keep politics out of sport…. But WSJ knows unification does sell

M .V is a great son of P __ It will never be like L .H I wonder ALL the Dutch are a complete ... M like M. V I do not believe the truth
“The goal is not merely to build new pipelines for Black kids into Formula 1 jobs, but to guide them into careers in science, technology, engineering and math, while also targeting a broader societal impact.” The title is such a clickbait…
I had just gotten to the point where I could enjoy a hard new journalism in the WSJ, i was even thinking of subscribing, Boy I dodged a bullet. Thanks WSJ , Heil Trump!
I love those subtly pastel pink sequins, understatedly bling ;)
How many black racing drivers have there been? Not many. I am sure it not because black people don't like racing.
Really like Hamilton as a driver but really wish he didn’t jump on the race baiting bandwagon.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssss
Stark contrast to his radio in the last race where he wasn't insisting much........................almost wondered if he left the car....................
Wow Jesse Owens, Jackie Robinson, and now this rich Britt. 😂😂😂
