The "camels" comment definitely do not suggest any sort of racism.

If you insist, it is your decision, but we will not be going bananas over a non-issue.

Camels are not a race anymore than Arabs are.
Another completely wrong conclusion based on total ignorance.
Do your self a favor and look up race.
Even Jews are only a race in America and Israel, they are in fact Semites like Arabs are.
That is of course apart from those who converted who are not really Jews at all.
Poor old Martin, he cannot even get his drive tarmacked.

hi All

A fantastic end to the season at a fantastic track. The duel between Button and Webber in the final laps was just awesome. My drive of the day would have to go to Kobayashi and can't wait to see him race next year.

Finally, thank you all for the comments and support re. racism post.
If you too want to show racism the RED card. You can log your complaint with the BBC at http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints and get them to investigate.
Nothing to do with PC, and all to do wth how much respect you have for people of other cultures.

[myownalias]

Ah the old British knack of complaining about nothing... time to get Mary Whitehouse [R.I.P.] on the case!

This thread is both hilarious and ridiculous.

[martracer]

what a complete load of tosh!
some people just do not have a sense of humour.
if you bother to look at the footage properly it is quite clear that the remark was made with Martins very British sense of irony, because the only living thing that might have seen the driver at that point on the circuit would certainly not have been another human being.
and Martin doesn't have a drop of racism in his whole being.
