> Our statistical model finds that neither Lewis Hamilton nor Michael Schumacher is Formula 1’s greatest driver

So its lame to play the racist card here.

Give me a break, let me guess, you are not black. Since Lewis got on top I have seen this argument come up, this rubbish didn't come up in the past. This same behavior happens all the time when a black person performs very well, folks find ways to take it away.

I am Caribbean but unlike you, I don't fall for the victim hood narrative. Racism is not the reason for every issues in our community.

Sure! ... and you think it's a coincidence that this article came out now? Not last year? Not 2 years ago? Hell, not 2 months ago. What do you think is the driving force behind the article?
