Just to be clear, those four seem to be:
Being black Being opposed to racism Baloo thinking he's gay The Diana poem
Is that right?

I don't care if he's gay. Nobody's buying that he's a red-blooded hetero shagger though, or cares, so enough with the beards.

So what's your list of four, then?

Bear in mind that it's not my list, but a list of reasons why any F1 fan might find him objectionable, beyond those which are common to many F1 drivers.
So, being half white. Advocating a racist, terrorist, criminal organisation/movement. Crimes against scansion. Having a rubbish beard x2.

Nah, he has at least one rubbish beard.

Also, I'm happy to accept a high probability of racism amongst anyone associated with F1, fans and pros alike.

Oh. I hadn't seen a picture of him recently so was unaware of his terrible facial hair.
While it is shocking - just like the Diana poem - I don't think it's the thing that will distinguish him among F1 fans for particular abuse.

Not the only thing, for sure, but that was my point.

I'm not sure "it" is Nicole Sherzinger's preferred pronoun BTW.

A case in point .... "Former Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone will be charged with fraud by false representation following an investigation into overseas assets believed to be worth more than £400m. The 91-year-old spent 40 years as the head of F1 before being removed as its chief executive officer in 2017. The Crown Prosecution Service said the charge follows an investigation by HMRC." www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/62119689

£400 million offshore. He won't be the only one. Wonder what the criteria are for an HMRC investigation? Watch The Spider's Web, Netflix.

Baloo isn't normal.

Normal men shave. And the ones who don't are generally twunts. And even then, if you were planning on not shaving you'd see if your facial hair didn't look scraggly and pathetic after a few weeks, and if it does you'd decide to shave anyway.

I shave because having a beard is uncomfortable.
