Ecclestone: “Black people should take care of themselves”

In a rather strange one CNN Ecclestone had an interview claims that black people are in many cases more racist than white people. Ecclestone coolly rejected the sharp criticism of his successors around managing director Chase Carey. “I'm glad that he said that I'm not part of Formula 1, then you can't associate me with things that they didn't do,” the 89-year-old Brit said Mail on Sunday and recommended that Carey take care of the shareholders instead.

“Covid was good for him. He was able to justify everything that he hadn't achieved," said the long-time boss of Formula 1. "I wouldn't recommend that you not let him go to the race track in the future," said Ecclestone.

He also asserted: “I am not against black people. Quite the opposite,” but added, “Black people should take care of themselves.” Hamilton was stunned About sentences like these Hamilton was stunned and wrote on Instagram: "If someone who has led the sport for decades understands so little about the deep issues that black people have to deal with every day, how can we expect understanding from the people who work under him." Ecclestone repeatedly makes racist statements Some time ago, Ecclestone caused a stir with statements about Adolf Hitler. Hitler, Ecclestone once said, at least got things sorted out. The former Formula 1 boss made it clear at the time that it wasn't admiration. But he added: “When he took over in the 1930s, things were clearly moving on, which was impressive. Hospitals, trains and so on. But whatever else he did was obviously crazy and wrong.”
