Yeah, at this point he’s a “hate hoaxer”.
It was all fine before, but now it’s an obvious stunt.
(Loved that his fellow drivers were supportive, personally. That’s not the same as being supportive in the media.)
His fellow drivers probably felt pressure to ‘show support’.
The way things are nowadays, just by holding out, that would be ‘proof’ of their racist nature, and they may have been banned from the sport. This is the brittle, childlike mode of thinking that goes on today. I could easily imagine some loudmouth like Lebron demanding that all those NOT showing support be outed and banished asap!! Then lots of corporate sponsored weak enough to obey his so called command.
