I gotta disagree with Lewis on him saying MBS' quote is about race. It's very likely more about class.

From his perspective he thinks that F1 is a rich person's sport only and rap is underneath them and only for the poor masses.

MBS is still a piece of shit though

Idk you might be right, but it's pretty common for people to use rap and hip hop as a means to say racist shit, but still have plausible deniability because they technically never mentioned black people or black culture.

Whether he meant it like that or not, I think it's pretty understandable that that was Lewis' interpretation of his comments.
