Hamilton calls Red Bull advisor’s apology for racist remarks insufficient

Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton declared that he considered the advisor’s apology insufficient”Red Bull » Helmut Marko in front of the driver of the Mexican team Sergio Perez .

After the Italian Grand Prix, Marco said Perez was inferior to fellow Red Bull Max Verstappen because he was “not as focused” on the track. Marco explained this by saying that Perez is a “South American”, although Mexico is part of North America. Marco later apologized for his words and Perez accepted his apology.

“What he said is completely unacceptable.” Even if we say that there is no place for any discrimination in this sport, but managers and people in this position make such comments, it is not good.

I think that just highlights, firstly, the work that still needs to be done. There are a lot of people who are really trying to fight this kind of thing, but it’s hard to maneuver if there are people at the top with this kind of thinking.

I don’t know what was said next, you’ll have to ask Cheko, but I don’t think it’s something you can just apologize for and everything will be fine. I think we need to do more,” Sky Sports quoted the Mercedes driver as saying.
