PETA does the unthinkable after Lewis Hamilton receives a daring birthday gift in relentless pursuit

Aside from racism issues, animal rights issues are also important to Lewis Hamilton. Demonstrating his commitment to the cause, he switched to a plant-based diet about five years ago. Animal rights group PETA praised him for spreading awareness by naming him PETA UK’s Person of the Year. But their latest way to celebrate Lewis’ birthday didn’t go over well with fans.

Lewis hasn’t stopped switching to a vegan diet. He started feeding his dog Roscoe and once told how he benefited from it. I supported a burger chain.

PETA urges Lewis Hamilton to campaign against Liberty Media

With all this in mind, PETA believed they could persuade Lewis to persuade Liberty Media to stop the Iditarod race. The Iditarod is a 1000-mile extreme weather dog race in Alaska. In the race, dogs drag sleds through the snow, and according to PETA, many die during the race. The next race he will take place on March 4, 2023.

In the letter, PETA Chairman Ingrid Newkirk urged Lewis to join the campaign. “I know you care about your dog, so please don’t sit back and watch as animals continue to suffer, or your silence will be seen as complicity.” One word from you can save a dog that is as precious as your Roscoe.”

Lewis recently celebrated his birthday on January 7th. They repeated the point with a request to him on Twitter.they wrote, “A Word From Vegan F1 Champion Sir @LewisHamilton was able to stop # Formula 1 Liberty Media, the owner, #iditarod dog race. We sent him a megaphone on his birthday to inspire him to speak up for the ‘underdogs’ who were forced to pull their sleds in the freezing snow!”

It wasn’t just Hamilton fans who didn’t do well for the post, F1 fans, including Max Verstappen, united against the organization.

Hamilton and Verstappen fans unite against PETA

F1 fans did not welcome PETA’s targeting Lewis to advance its agenda. His F1 community on all social media platforms, including Twitter, is polarizing on various issues. But this time we stood together.

Let’s see some reactions to the post.

One fan found PETA’s constant attempts to involve Lewis annoying.

One user pointed to the fact that PETA’s post united all the different F1 fanbases.

Even rival faction fans came to the aid of the seven-time world champion and blamed PETA.

Even Dan, a former F1 engineer and host of The Engine Braking Podcast, couldn’t help but post a hilarious David Mitchell meme in the comments.
