If your country was invaded by Arabs/African Muslims, then ruled by them for over 700 years - during which time hundreds of thousands, if not over a million, of your countrymen and especially women, were dragged back to North Africa to be slaves for sultans, sheiks, pashas, and of course, labour for who knows what - then by god you have totally earned your right to be racist against blacks!!!! ----- M&A Artemis Your grasp of history appears to be as sound as your grasp of the legislation relating to the incitement of racial hatred. I suggest that you brush up on both. If Spaniards are “racist”, then they’ve more than earned the right to be - and be respected for it.

Maybe Hamilton had better tone down the excellence a bit.

As long as Lewis Hamilton is dignified, talented, intelligent, the racist [Rigid fools] will continue to protest and try to shake him. This is simply because [being black] he contradicts everything they believe to be true. He is firm evidence against their warped doctorine - they are truely troubled by his success and therefore try to fight him the only way they know how; engaging in ignorant playground banter based on superficial difference. But, Lewis is pure excellence, young and intelligent - they cannot touch his talent. He will reflect on it and then rise above it, continuing with his job - driving. Whether it's Tiger Woods, Thierry Henry or Lewis Hamilton, excellence is the best deterent to racism.
