Lewis Hamilton has criticized FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem for making racially charged comments about swearing in Formula 1. Ben Sulayem compared drivers' use of expletives to the language in rap music, stating, 'We’re not rappers, you know. They say the F-word how many times per minute?' Hamilton found these remarks stereotypical, highlighting that most rappers are black, which he believes implies a racial bias. Despite partially agreeing with the need to curb foul language, Hamilton disapproved of Ben Sulayem's choice of words. This controversy adds to a series of previous criticisms faced by Ben Sulayem during his tenure, including sexist remarks and disputes over FIA regulations and valuations.
