A few days ago, Nicolas Hamilton tweeted “Although I struggle with walking as a result of my cerebral palsy, it is far preferable to being treated as less than sentient while in a wheelchair.”
However, the racing driver took to Instagram the next day to state that his Twitter had been hacked and he has deleted the account to prevent this happening again.
He said he was shocked the message had been posted and that it “almost made out that I was better than those that are still in wheelchairs”.
