i heard on the news that lewis hamilton had received some racist abuse while testing in spain. that's really not acceptable in this day and age and i'm sure alonso wouldn't condone such behaviour either.

:shakehead: shame and yes I am sure that Alonso and fellow Spaniards condem this kind of behaviour. I have lived a couple of years in Spain and I can say the Spanish are good people, modern and really open-minded.

i do feel though that fernando should publicly condem this kind of behaviour as an ambassador to the sport and his own country.

He definitely should, regardless of any differences that he and Hamilton had at McLaren...
