I’m probably being naive but has he said anything wrong here? He’s clearly not condoning the racism and spends the whole video saying how wrong it is. He was simply pointing out that Verstappen has been receiving abuse too online which clearly should also be dealt with.

It’s a nothing story. In fact it’s not even a story.. it’s a tweet with a few hundred likes.

The whole thing is being hi jacked now, it’s getting beyond a joke, people need to realise that both Toto and Christian are two cheeks of the same arse, they’ll do absolutely anything to win, just like their drivers. F1 is a bit of a charade, now moto GP that a much better proposition altogether.

It's been covered a fair bit more than that 1 tweet tbh.

Imo you simply can not bring up someones abuse over a statement when you are comparing it against racist abuse. Verstappen was abused for moaning about Hamilton celebrating a win. ( abuse is wrong of course )
You cant simply say you dont condone racist abuse and throw in... "but max got abused too" Not for the colour of his skin he wasnt!

Nothing to see really. MV probably received abuse for his part in the British Grand Prix incident with LH. By the way, Horner is a whining, moaning tw@t.

No but you’re missing the point. He’s mentioned ‘Max also received abuse too by the way’ as a throwaway comment to highlight how prominent abuse via social media has become. He’s not trying to deflect the issue away from the racist abuse but rather trying to show just how disgustingly common online abuse is nowadays and how the problem needs to be tackled.

At the end of the day, it’s a 20 second video and he spends roughly 19 seconds talking about how disgusting the racist abuse of Hamilton is. That tweet and any suggestion that he’s trying to defend the racism is frankly bang out of order.

Sorry but I'll have to disagree. You simply cant discuss racial abuse and throw in a comment of "oh and btw max...

Doesnt matter if he stood there for an hour saying he doesnt condone racism. As soon he puts in the "oh and btw max...he may aswell have said all lives matter.

Its everything Lewis is fighting for.

The word ‘but’ didn’t feature.

What did feature were words like “don’t condone in any way”.

Horner appears to be a bell, but there is absolutely nothing to see here.

Sorry. "And by the way max"... it's basically the same. ( I shall edit my last piece)
Taking the seriousness of the abuse aimed at lewis and bringing in Max's, like it's a level playing field. It's simply not. It wasnt about max it was about the racial abuse received.


I'm glad I'm not alone in finding it shocking. Plenty of people rightfully online calling him out on it.

It's interesting to learn aswell that they allowed max to tweet about his anger of lewis celebrating whilst he went to hospital etc... but failed to let him know that the team told Mercedes that he was absolutely fine. Hence merc telling lewis he was ok. Without max and redbulls post race comments the abuse towards lewis Maywell have been a lot less.

Imagine if he was damning homophobic abuse and then said oh and btw max was abused for being straight.

So let me see if I’ve understood you - no matter how many times, or for how long, someone says, (and I’m summarising) this is unacceptable, a few words adding additional facts, not opinion, render him racist.

Oh do have a day off, we get that you want to demonstrate that you aren’t a racist, you don’t have to carry on this nonsense

Bizarre dont know why I need to show I'm not a racist. Never posted anything to make me appear one? So not sure what or even why you're implying it.

Also... I havent called Horner a racist. My thoughts and that shared by many others is that at his level he should be aware of what he is saying on such an important topic.

I am not sure your analogy works.

What you are describing is two blokes being abused for their sexuality. Which is basically….erm….2 blokes being abused for their sexuality…..which by definition is presumably equal. Unless you think that sexualities are somehow unequal!?

Anyway….I’m not sure it works.

Fair play. Bad example. But excellently questioned by yourself.

My point was lewis was abused for his skin colour. Max was abused because of his disgust at lewis, not his skin colour and therefore it's wrong to effectively compare the two as equal abuses which is what he did by trying to deflect the situation into a abuse comparison, He may not have meant to but he did it. Hence why horner is trending and many people feeling the same about it.

At no point did he suggest they were equal. He simply mentioned max as a side not.

He clearly focussed on Lewis, and stated numerous times that he didn't condone the abuse. It was clear that he was focussed on the racial abuse aimed at Lewis, but with a nod to max.

He was perfectly right to discuss it all, Max's mental health is also important, as is everyone's.

Has Lewis raised any objection to this?

Yes but he didn’t say it was equal, he simply said Max has received abuse too, which is a fact which needs to be addressed as well.
