F1 | Bottas: “Racism has no place in our sport”

The Finnish driver approved the decision taken by Mercedes to change the livery of the single-seaters by opting for black coloring in support of the fight against racism. The German team has specified that they will use the total black livery for the entire 2020 season:

"Formula 1 is a world defined by performance, but it still contains many barriers for people who come from backgrounds that have not traditionally been part of the sport. We know that our teams are stronger when they are more representative of the society we are part of, and it is important for us to stand together and show our commitment to change. Racism and discrimination have no place in our sport or our society and I am proud to stand with the team, with Lewis and with Mercedes-Benz in making this important statement."
