It’s crazy to see such a “controversial” statement and they did not try put the cameras off him. Cheers to F1 for actually sticking to their statements

Edit: Everyone saying that this shouldn’t be a controversial statement, you’re right. But it is. People all over the world are still in denial about the day to day inequality that many of us have to endure. Seeing multi billion dollar companies supporting (or at least not ignoring) people who speak out about this gives me hope that maybe one day we will have a world where everybody is treated equally. On the other hand, seeing this comment section makes me realise how absolutely doomed the human race is.

It’s wild to me to see a person like Lewis Hamilton, standing on a podium in Tuscany, advocating for something that happened less than 10 miles from my home and our city has been battling over for months.

It’s felt like we’ve kinda been on our own to sort this out at times, but reminders like this that the whole world sees and cares about what happens in my city is refreshing and gives me a renewed inspiration to keep fighting for what’s right.
