Five Formula 1 motor racing pilots refused to kneel before the start of the Australian Grand Prix race to support the fight against racism. This was reported on July 5 by the Air Force. At the same time, all 20 pilots of the royal car races agreed to hold a race in T-shirts with the inscription End racism. It is also known that earlier the Mercedes team, in support of the fight against racism, painted their cars black, and the McLaren team applied rainbow colors to their cars for the same reason.
