Hamilton puts Spain abuse in past

Lewis Hamilton has put the racist abuse he suffered earlier this year behind him in his return to Barcelona for the Sunday’s Spanish Grand Prix. Hamilton was taunted by fans at the Barcelona track in February, prompting Formula One chiefs to launch its Racing Against Racism campaign.Apart from the racist jibes, some local fans still hold a grudge against Hamilton following last year’d feud with his former team-mate, and Spanish favourite, Fernando Alonso. However, the McLaren driver says his focus will be firmly on events on the track this weekend. Hamilton said his experience in Bahrain had taught him a lesson.
