Alvaro Bautista hits back over rainbow hair comments
Alvaro Bautista has responded to comments made over his hai💜rcut at this weekendඣ’s Portimao WorldSBK round.

Aruba.it Racing Ducati rider Alvaro Bautista ❀is not averse to a ch🉐ange in hairstyle, even just last year in Aragon he showed up with it dyed purple, but the Spaniard’s latest switch up has caused some social media discourse.
The two-time 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:World Superbike Champion showed up to this weekend’s Portuguese Round wi🦂th a rainbow dyed into the back of his hair. It’s a pattern that is connected to the LGBT community, whether Bautista meant it in that way or not, and therefore one that, even in 2025, can generate a degree of backlash.
Indeed, that is what happened when photos of Bautista🐠’s new꧑ haircut were posted on social media.
The Spaniard said on Friday that the comments are something he tries to avoid, and added thaꦚt tဣhe rainbow colours were something he did for his daughter – as was the case with the aforementioned purple dye in Aragon.
“The comments in the social network I try to not read because you cannot see the people who say that so maybe it’s not true, the people it’s easy to🍌 speak without [them] looking at your face,” Bautista said on Friday in Portimao, .
“For me it doesn’t matter all the comments that peopl🐲e make in the social network.
“The fact is I did this because I felt funny from ꦗm🅘y daughter, they enjoyed a lot.
“I’m not responsible for how 🐬pe🌠ople can think and comment. That’s a them problem, I do this because I like that’s all.”
Bautista ended Friday afternoon’s FP2 🔴session in Portimao fifth-fastest on the timesheets. His factory Ducati teammate, Nicolo Bulega, was second-fastest, while reigning champion Toprak Razgatlioglu ended fastest overall.
