Sorry Lewis, Formula 1 is just about talent not race

AS much as I admire Lewis Hamilton as a very skilled racing driver, I don’t understand his views on racism within the sport (“Ex-F1 chief Bernie: Black people are more racist”, June 27).

By my calculations there were no fewer than 14 different nationalities represented across the F1 grid and all drivers are there because of their ability, not their race or colour.

Just like Lewis himself, as was confirmed by Ron Dennis of McLaren when Lewis first started, which is just how it should be.
