Formula 1 2008 Season

Well the 2008 F1 season starts soon.

After watching the news today for the abuse that was directed at Lewis Hamilton, both of the races in Spain should be scrapped.

F1 is a sport were fans stand side by side, racism has no place.

Any other country that does this should be stripped of there race.

Re: Formula 1 2008 Season

Every sport and every team has its few percentage of idiots. Its riciculously extreme that everyone should be collectively punished for the actions of a tiny, tiny minority. The fans should have be dealt with directly, by the police if necessary, but its hysteria to say that both races should be dropped because of one action of a handful of fans.

Re: Formula 1 2008 Season

It's not the first time something like this has happend and sadly it wont be the last.

It tends to happen when a nation's favorite gets beaten by someone elses.

And It should do, it was only a couple of people out of how many million's of people live in Spain, why should they be punished for the actions of a few? Obviously the few that did abuse him should be punished, but to punish the country as a whole would be extreme and unnecessary.

Re: Formula 1 2008 Season

Although it is correct that the consequences are made clear, it should only be enforced if the authorities do nothing to combat this behaviour. It seems that the tracks etc. are taking this as serious as they should and I therefore see no reason for Spain to stripped of their races.

Re: Formula 1 2008 Season

It happened in football, now F1, this kind of abuse must be stopped, and if loads of fans get upset then tough.

Next time they stand next to one of these *******s they will ID them to the authorities.

I guess it's easy to brush things like this off when you're not the person, sex or race being abused is it?

Wander how long Flavio and Fernando stay mates, I give it two races maximum before he start throwing his toys out the pram again.

Also, is it too early in the season for the FIA to come up with a reason why Räikkönen shouldn't be starting from the back of the grid?

He qualified 16th with his time, then his engine died before the pits, thats why he's 16th, didn't break any rules.
