This just shows that the FIA loves McLaren - Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton coming to the 2008 F1 Season

After all, they are launching this ''Racing Against Racism'' campaign all for the guy.

You read it people, the FIA, including all Formula One stakeholders that includes teams, drivers, circuits and national sporting authorities will be launching a ''Racing Against Racism'' campaign this 2008 F1 season as a result of the racial abuse Lewis Hamilton suffered in Barcelona.

In case you didn't know, almost the entire country of Spain started hating on Lewis Hamilton after he fucked Fernando Alonso up in McLaren. You see, Fernando Alonso was almost certain he will be the man in McLaren after arriving from Renault last season.

He never anticipated that a young British driver named Lewis Hamilton will be having such an awesome rookie season with the team. The rest was history as Hamilton pissed Alonso so much that he opted to return to Renault and leave McLaren to Hamilton.

In a practice session in Barcelona, weeks before the 2008 F1 season kicks off, Lewis Hamilton found out just how pissed the entire country of Spain is of him after ''dissing'' their hero, Fernando.

Almost every kind of racist remark was thrown at the McLaren - Mercedes ace driver every single time he made his way towards pit lane at the Montmelo circuit in Barcelona. As a result, the FIA came up with the idea of this campaign that will protect one of F1's prized young icons.

''The FIA was appalled by the scenes of racist abuse targeted at Lewis Hamilton,'' an FIA spokesperson said. ''Such behavior runs counter to the fundamental principles of equality enshrined in the FIA's statutes.''

''Formula One is a global, multi-cultural sport and has never encountered such scenes before and will not tolerate them in future.''

''International motorsport can reach a huge global audience to send out positive messages of racial and sporting equality. We will be encouraging all those involved in motorsport to support our new campaign, from recent World Champions to the next generation of potential champions at the grass roots of our sport.''
