Hamilton 'overcome with rage' over violent response to race protests
Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton says he has been “completely overcome with rage” at the violence that has erupted in the wake of protests over racial injustice. Hamilton – the only black driver in F1 history – was the first of the current grid to speak out about the protests following the death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis last week, leading to a number of other drivers doing similar. In his first statement he said he feels he stands alone in the sport, and in a follow-up Instagram post the British driver says he is angered by some of the incidents he has seen in recent days.
