Formula 1 2020: Lewis Hamilton's battle against racism motivating him on the track, says Mercedes' Toto Wolff

Firstpost  

Wolff also saw in Hamilton, who leads this year’s title race by 37 points after winning four of this year’s six races, a racer motivated by history as he aims to draw level with Schumacher on seven championships. Lewis Hamilton’s crusade for racial equality has helped him reach a new level as racing driver, sportsman and inspiration, according to his Mercedes team chief Toto Wolff. After the six-time champion registered his record 156th podium finish at Sunday’s Spanish Grand Prix with his 88th career victory to move within three wins of Michael Schumacher’s record of 91, Wolff said he felt he was watching a man competing at another, higher level than all those around him. “It’s easy, sometimes, just to forget just how amazing it is, where we are, what we’re doing — and so I’m definitely going to have a glass of wine tonight to celebrate.” He will head to the seventh race in Belgium, where he has experienced mixed fortunes over the years, later this month knowing that another triumph and a win at Monza would set him up to equal Schumacher’s win tally at Mugello in Ferrari’s celebratory 1,000th F1 race.
