CNN —Seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton has praised Ralf Schumacher after the former F1 driver revealed on Monday that he was in a same-sex relationship.
He was previously married to Cora Schumacher and is the father to a son, David.
The 49-year-old had an 11-year F1 career, driving for Jordan, Williams and Toyota and won six races along the way.
The Mercedes driver spoke about the need for F1 to “do more” in order to make the sport more inclusive following Schumacher’s announcement.
“There is one thing saying that it’s inclusive and there’s another thing actually making sure that people actually feel comfortable in the environments.
