F1 launched its ‘We Race As One’ initiative at the start of 202💟0 in a bid to combat racism as well as tackle other issues such as sustainability.

During this time, drivers have been allowe🦋d to go to the front of the grid to take the knee or sh♔owcase their own anti-racism messages through t-shirts.

Speaking to , Domenicali confirmed F1 is shifting its stance for this season with drivers no longer having theꦛ formal opportunity to take the knee, but they 🌞are still allowed to do so.

“I think the gesture has been an important gesture because♐ we need to respect everyone, as always,” he said. “But now is the time to move on and take some other action.”

🐻On Tuesday morning, F1 annou𓆏nced an extension to its engineering scholarship programme.

The programme helps students from underrepresented groups with placements at some of the l💦eading universities💖 in the United Kingdom and Italy.

Domenicali believes it’s important for F1 🐼to clearly show its intentions through things like the aforementioned programme.

“We needed to make sure that what we did was impꩲortant to show the intention of F🌄ormula 1 in things that were really important for the world,” he added.

“I think now it's the matꦐter of [changing] gesture, to action. Now the action is the focus on the diversity of our com💟munity, and this is the first step.”

The former Ferrari boss believes Lewis Hamilton will be “fully-charged” for the seaso𝕴n ahead.

“I saw the last picture was a light of positivity on his face and his gesture,” he said. “I think that is important because Lewis is an incredible asset not only for our sp🌳ort but for the world."

“There was a total respect on his choice to be on silent mode.𒆙 I think he will be fully ꦍcharged for the start of the season. Lewis has in front of him a possibility to be an eight-time world champion.

“So I'm sure he is totally focused on these objectiಞves because this year there will be so many new things, so many variables, that will allow this championship to be so attractive.”
