"Getting back to what this thread was originally about, what is your opinion on my previous post re D. Kvyat, if he decided to protest the poisoning of a Russian subject on the basis of human rights abuse should we paying customers be made to watch his pre race protest also?
And where do they draw the line?"

Forza you make a valid point and if more or all 20 drivers wanted to promote their issues as Hamilton did it would become a joke.

That said your right as a paying customer to view what you want and what you want only is irrelevant here. (You know I am not picking on you Forza, you are fair game as a Ferrari fan but as an individual its a different ballgame). There is no specific agreement in any viewing contract about what you will and will not see. That is not to say it is not annoying to you but if you were to raise the issue you would be told then dont watch, go make a cup of tea or visit the loo!

If Daniil Kyvat raised the issue you relate to he would have more balls than all the world leaders who continually turn a blind eye to this disgraceful murderer who runs Russia. He would also potentially be signing his own death certificate.

As a one off situation and given the circumstances I do not have a problem with what is happening. I think in this thread we have locked in on the Breonna Taylor situation and as we can see so much conflicting reporting it is hard to know the truth. I would simply say this. She did not deserve to die as she did. The Police are culpable for what happened and attempted to cover it up. In the larger picture I understand what Hamilton was saying and he should really have made the issue a broader one such as Why are cops walking free after murdering so many Black people? (It could be worded a lot better but you get my point.)

This country has a lot of social issues, it is a mess and in general terms since Trumps was elected people are so much more aggressive and confrontational. Its horrible to witness!
