Alexander GovorovCorrespondent SportAll materialsBritain is indignant: three-time world champion in Formula 1 Nelson Piquet called the seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton «neguinho». The scandal has reached the point that the British are calling for Pique and his entire family, which includes daughter Kelly, the girlfriend of the reigning champion Max Verstapenne, to be kept out of F-1. What Nelson Pique said about Hamilton A week before the start of the British Grand Prix, an interview was released Brazilian Formula 1 legend Nelson Piquet. Moreover, the video version was published back in November last year, when Festappen and Hamilton fought for the title. Then Piquet walked hard on Lewis for knocking Max off the track at Silverstone. And he used the Portuguese word «neguinho», which in Britain was considered a racist slur. , and he's just disgusting. I won't publish it. The video was actually filmed in November last year. I have no idea why it came out only now. Probably, then they simply didn't notice it,» British journalist Will Buxton wrote on his social networks .Will, of course, is disingenuous. He knows exactly why the interview has become popular only now. After all, the British Grand Prix will take place this week, where traditionally the main star is the same Briton Hamilton whom Pique insulted. Now is just the perfect time to send support to Sir Lewis and put pressure on his rival Max Verstappen. After all, his girlfriend is the daughter of Nelson Piquet.
