Hamilton vs. Hoy

Shit, GGGGranville - I do hope your not suggesting that voicing dislike of a sportsman is tantamount to racism 'cos that's what your statement seems to be inferring

perhaps people don't like him just cos he's a tax exile…

I can't see any other reason why Hamilton should be singled out for "tax avoidance". There is an undercurrent of "we let him into our country, and this is how he repays us". Virtually every racing driver before him left the country for tax reasons: Damon Hill, Nigel Mansell, Eddie Irvine, Jackie Stewart, David Coulthard, Jenson Button, it was never brought up with them.
Oh, and Nicole Cooke lives in Switzerland too.

fyi I'm white and Welsh.
