Lewis Hamilton speaks out as F1 reaches “pivotal moment” over recent controversies
Lewis Hamilton adꦐdresses the recent off-track controversie🍷s that are dominating F1.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton says F1 has reached a “pivot🤪al moment” as of🍨f-track controversies continue to make headlines and overshadow the sport.
Last weekend’s season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix was dominated by stories about Red Bull team principal Christian Horner, who was cleared of inappropriate behaviour before an anonymous email including messages purporting to involve Horner were leaked a day later, putting him under 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:fresh scrutiny.
Since Bahrain, it has emerged that FIA president 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结🔴果历史:Mohammed Ben Sulayem is being investi🅠gated for an alleged attempt to interfere with an F1 race. Separately, Ben Sulayem allegedly told officials not to certify last year✤’s Las Vegas Grand Prix.
"As someone who loves t𒆙he sport, it's definitely disappointing to see what's going on right now,” Hamilton said when asked if it saddened him that off-track events where dominating the sport ahead 𝓡of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
“It doesn't lo💫ok good from the outside world, the outside lo൲oking in. I think it's a really, really important time for the sport to really show and stick to its values, holding ourselves accountable for our actions.
“And it's a really, really pivotal moment, I th𓃲ink, for the sport, in terms of what we project to the world, and how it's handled. And it's not been handled very well to this point.
“Transparency is really key. And I'm really, really hoping to see some prog❀ress moving forwards🐼.
🌼“I hope it's not a year that continues to go on with this. But it highlights some of the issues we also have within the sport.
“And when we're talking about diversity, inclusion, that inclusion for example, ♎and making people feel comfortable🌄 in this environment, is key. And it's clearly not the case.”
He added: "This is not the part of the sport that I loveꦛ. But you find these things, I guess, in business. It definitel❀y is an interesting time.”

Considering the possible impact the Horner saga could have on Red Bull, with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen's father, Jos, wading in on the matter amid suggestions of tension within the camp, Hamilton cited his own experiences at McLaren at a time when Ron Dennis was facing questions over his leadersꦇhip.
“Just from my experience obviously having gone through something similar back in t🗹he day when I was at McLaren, in the sense of our leader was in question, and was going through a difficult time. And it affected everybody,” Hamilton said.
“I remember kind of when we were losing Ron, for examp🎀le, the things that Ron was going through, and the steps that we had to take, it affected all of us.
“A leader is super important because they set the tone, they make sure the team𓆏 sticks to the core values of what the sport is about, and integrity.
“And whilst there are loads o༒f people further down the trough who are just as important, that leader is key, I think,🦩 to the destination that you're working towards.”
