“I have known Lewis since I arrived in F1 and he has always been respectful not only with me, but also with all the people he met inside the paddock,” commented the Monegasque driver on social media. “This behavior should be standard for everyone. The words expressed towards him must not be tolerated. We must continue to strive to ensure that Formula 1 embraces diversity, becoming an increasingly inclusive sport. Racist, as well as discriminatory, language and behavior must be removed not only in our sport, but also within society."
