Like if he would, lets say, donate 20 million pounds to empower young people from under-represented groups in the UK? Or build a trust with the heads of the engineering uni's of the UK, both sides of parliament and representatives from the industry?

I think it's a bit more then put some kids on karts.
It would be worth way more than money if he scheduled speaking tours at schools teaching the diverse that it was up to them to work hard and put in the effort and discipline to achieve their dreams.

Making excuses why some don't make it makes people feel that the game is rigged, and they simply won't participate.

His report will drive more people away than it entices.

Lewis isn't the GOAT because someone felt sorry that he is black. He is the GOAT because he overcame hundreds of setbacks through determination.
You mean, minorities aren’t represented enough because they don’t put in the work?

First you accuse “woke” of being all talk, then I point out that he does put up actual money to do something meaningful and then you say he should only talk..
Money fixes nothing. Literally zero.

Changing the hearts of people is priceless.

And not being represented "enough" is subjective, and not worth the thought.

The simple truth that everyone can't be a Rock Star seems to escape some folks...🙄

I think you misses the whole point of the commission or are not willing to. Hamilton’s efforts (together with the royal institute of engineering) is not to have more f1 drivers of colour, but to have more minorities in engineering.

That it’s just a change of heart is, well… let’s keep it civil, a very 1950’s thought.
