Lewis Hamilton has shown his disgust at the racism England footballers faced during their 5-1 victory over Montenegro. The Mercedes driver took to Instagram to show his support to the players that had been abused.
Hamilton has faced racism in the past and can show his sympathy towards the England players.
"Congratulations to England for a 5-1 win over Montenegro last night, you're making us proud," Hamilton said on Instagram.
"What you faced with the songs was despicable. Completely unacceptable, there is no room for such behaviour in any sport."
Hamilton has been critical of Formula 1's attempt to diversify the sport but fortunately, motor-racing doesn't seem to have the same issue as football does with racism.
