No matter how much good one puts out in the world, there are always people asking for more. This stands true for Lewis Hamilton as well, despite his consistent activism and support for various social issues. A recent example in Hamilton’s life is the public plea by PETA’s founder Ingrid Newkirk. However, the wording of the plea is sparking outrage in the F1 community.

PETA president’s plea to the Mercedes man was to ask for his support against Iditarod, a 975 miles long sled dog race. A race that is the reason for the suffering and deaths of the dogs used in the race. A race that is still sponsored by the owner of F1 and CEO of Liberty Media, Greg Maffei.

Let us look at the public plea made by the PETA president, to bring you up to speed. “Lewis, please, stop ignoring our desperate appeal for help! A word from you could prevent dogs every bit as precious as Roscoe, with whom you share your home, from enduring hideous deaths in a race sponsored by F1’s owner,” read the plea.

The accusation of ignorance and the use of Hamilton’s bulldog Roscoe in the plea are extremely disrespectful and manipulative. If there was a way to approach Hamilton to ask for his help, Newkirk’s way was not it.

In fact, this approach by the PETA president is sparking outrage among the fans.

The fans are now questioning the president’s insensitive approach. The fans are especially outraged about the fact that Hamilton is being targeted by the PETA president for his social activism.

The fans are calling out the entire organization for “gaslighting” their agenda with the use of Roscoe. Hamilton’s soft spot for animals shouldn’t put a target on his back.

The fans are also accusing the organization and the president of “guilt-tripping” the world champion.

Fans all across the F1 community are speaking up in support of Hamilton and how his good work shouldn’t warrant him putting up a face to every injustice in the world.
