As long as RedBull are winning and making money for F1 nothing will change. This old racist will continue to be racist. That's how the world works.

True but I think it's still necessary to publicize such comments and not sweep them under the rug.

Yes true. However as I said, I don't think anything will happen. He's been saying racist dumb shit for years now without penalty. Just because he's an old rich European he gets away with it.

Money talks in F1. That's the bottom line. It sucks, but that's the way it is.
