FIA & British news media shud be afforded a place in the Guiness Book of Records for the "biggest over-reaction to a fairly isolated & possibly innocent event".

Whether you choose to believe the explanation of the Spanish fans involved or not, this has now officially been blown WAY out of proportion. The political correctness of society today is almost a joke, with names, descriptions, etc thort out by committees so as not to offend sum sector of the planet or anutha.
Groups of people are never going to accept other groups, whether divided by race, religion, class, age, sex, whatever. That's reality. Accept it & move on, making a noise about it just creates 'camps' to belong to.

There has never been any evidence of 'racism' in motor sport that I am aware of and when you consider the number of nations involved at all levels of the sport it is a great testimony to the tolerance of true enthusiasts. Considering that we have A1GP which pitches nation against nation and we do not see any problems there it does beg the question as to what the FIA etc. are doing. The Spanish spectators did not abuse Hamilton because he was black, which would be racist, but because they disliked him over the Alonso affair. Maybe there actions and words were not pleasant, but that was common abuse and I suspect few of us are never guilty of that particular reaction at sometime. 3qr7

LOL, def Spa '97 (I think u meant) - where it rained 15mins B4 the start & Schumi murdered Villenueve & Alessi? I was hanging on to grass roots to stop from sliding down the embankment at the Bus-stop.

Next best has got to be Asians ... nothing like eating su****

F1 and "social awareness" are pretty much opposite concepts.

Is it just me, or doesn't it seem weird that Max Mosley, with his family history, is the one leading the anti-racism campaign?

British hysteria is getting to the point
where it only reveals what their very own complexes are.

And of course the F1 and its barons are racist: they only tolerate the colour of money.

"its merely using F1 as a platform globally for racial awareness"

That is EXACTLY the BS I am talking about.It is rather promoting awareness that the public is retarded(to accept such demagogic PC BS).Moreover,it is insulting, demeaning(& exceedingly ignorant)to suggest or imply that only "white" people are "racists".

In addition "Racism has always meant "to believe one's race as being superior to another"(as Japanese have for centuries);rather than today's Orwellianistic redefinition of calling everything “racism” in an effort to denigrate any action or opinion to appear kind and saintly as Molier's Tartuffe.
