I like it. Waiting for a meltdown of middle aged white men on social media in 3, 2, 1...

I loved this livery. It's awesome!

Now I am looking forward to hearing more about the actual actions of Mercedes in regards of promoting diversity. This could be one more case of causewashing in the end... a beautiful one, though.

A black livery because black lives matter. What's next, to make a point in racing to support women, we'll have a pink livery too? A pink Mercedes, is that what we are going to see in Austria?

Well, she drove for Arden last year which had pretty much the same livery as Racing Point.

Now that's what I call next-gen virtue signaling. Even better when they are sponsored by a certain company owned by a certain state where discrimination is written to the law.

I wonder if Mercedes would have done the same if Hamilton wasn't one of their drivers.

So AMG launched the black series to their F1 cars? Looking better than the road cars

Hope they keep it black until they quit F1

Let's not forget Red Bull and Alpha Tauri's continued support for Smurf rights.

They should be removed from the championship as their aggressive "Bull" moniker can be associated to bull fighting which is an outdated and inhumane sport which should be banned :x
