Former F1 world champion Jackie Stewart has recently made some bold comments about Lewis Hamilton and his time in F1. A shocking report covering the comments made by Stewart has recently come to light.

The report by David Kent was called out publicly by BBC presenter Nick Knowles for partiality when referring to the 2 F1 greats. Kent in his report, does not mention “Sir” even once in front of Hamilton’s name when both Stewart and Hamilton have been knighted by the Queen.

This has the entire internet up in arms over the bias displayed by the journalist. Furthermore, the fans have all been expressing their discontent with the report.
