Former Grand Prix driver-turned TV expert Karun Chandhok, who recently revealed he was denied entry into a restaurant because of his skin colour, said more awareness needs to be created against racism through F1 though the sport has already taken “impressive” steps to address the issue.
During last weekend’s Monaco GP, Chandhok, while on air for Sky, said “we’ve been places where we’ve gone out to eat and I haven’t been given a table”.
Chandhok, though, did not mention where the incident occurred or when.
Speaking from the UK after the incident was highlighted on social media, Chandhok said he would not dwell on the past but focus on contributing to make the sport more diverse.
