Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton has been widely praised after showing his support for the LGBTI community during a practice session Friday for the Qatar Grand Prix.
Hamilton wore a helmet featuring the Pride Progress Flag, a redesigned and more inclusive version of the traditional rainbow flag, and emblazoned with the words "We Stand Together."
The flag features additional black and brown stripes to highlight the oppression of people of color, as well as pink and blue stripes for the trans flag and a purple circle on a yellow background, which is the intersex flag.
