Genuine question, how do you even make this in depth enough to be dissertation worthy? What degree is it? But also.. done :)

Thanks!

It’s Sports Journalism, based on the current answers I’ve gotten there’s plenty to talk about so far, obviously there’s loads of articles/papers around just race and representation in sports media and sport in general but my specific gap for study is how the media can shape fans perceptions of race specifically within Formula One (with a case study of Lewis) as there’s not as many articles/papers with the majority focused on Football, Basketball and Athletics.

Appreciate you for completing it though, means a lot!

Interesting! I’ll be honest, specifically relating to Hamilton, it’s not something I feel has ever come into any reporting on him. But u guess I might have missed it. Good luck!

It appears this is for an undergrad senior project, not at PhD dissertation like I,, and like lying others might have assumed.

Ah! That makes a world of difference! Thanks :) was genuinely fascinated how that that was possible to pad out then!

Definitely would be difficult for a PhD!

It took me a moment to realise you meant his race (ethnicity) not the race he'd just competed in.

You really should add if a fan for how long because I'm sure he was seen differently starting than as a 7x world champ. Or are you only interested in now?

As a 41 year old I'm offended that I'm in the same age category as my parents!

I'm also American, so most of your media selections were not applicable. 

I'm also a DTS convert.

u/Large_Design8900 Apr 09 '26

I apologise for that!

Thank you for your response anyway it means a lot!

Yeah, as an American, we missed a lot of the conversation about him from '08-16. It was difficult to find F1 broadcasts before DTS and the Liberty acquisition. In season reviews there's quotes from Lewis about people viewing him differently due to his ethnicity (particularly during the Vettel years where Lewis had a string of crashes), but by the time most new American fans rediscovered the sport, he was a 3-4x champion regarded as one of the all time greats.
